but I don't want to do anything. Slowing down lately. Too many "driveway moments" and "Vitamin D baths". All I want to do is take a rest.
Just finished a delightful compilation of short stories...Are we there yet? (selected shorts : a celebration of the short story, a presentation of Symphonyspace) Stories by Eudora Welty, Annie Proulx and others. My favorite story was A ride with Olympy, by James Thurber, read by David Rakoff (that guy who sounds like David Sedaris, but isn't). The author takes a ride with Olympy, a helper with whom he speaks only in French, to teach him how to drive a big car around the hair pin curves of Cap D'Antibes in France. Hilarity, miscommunication and catastrophe ensue. This audiobook is at the Bridgeton Public Library (AUDB F ARE).
