The Rosamond Gifford Lecture Series is the largest library-related series in the country. I go primarily to support Friends of the Central Library. I dont particularly enjoy many of the lectures because Im not a big fan of contemporary fiction and not all writers are good speakers, far from it, but there have been evenings with writers and poets that I will never forget and now last night will be one of them.Geraldine Brooks gave the second lecture of this years series.

I also forgot that the last time I pretty much gave up one of my problem foods, bread.So this week Ill do things differently.
For one thing Im going to forget about the cockamamie Silver whatever-it-is particularly the re...

As I was sitting here earlier this morning, a sharp shinned hawk chased what I think was a blue jay, into the nice clean window. It was quite an impact. Put everything else out of my head.
The hawk flew off after a few minutes but I'm still not focusing on much else; it doesn't take a lot to throw me off these days.
