It was so cold today on the way back from yoga that Eileen and I ran into a local high school to break the eight-block walk home. Thankfully, it was open. Some kind of Sunday meeting going on. I thought my fingers were going to fall off. And then I realized if I went home, I’d never leave, so I turned around and went to work in my workout clothes.

Just got home and lit the Hanukah candles – my first menorah, which my parents sent me from LA.
