incommunicado

Somehow, I’ve managed to not post anything here for almost two months.

What’s been going on?

A little of this, a little of that.

I went to Toronto for a week to see family, eat until I could eat no more, and celebrate my beautiful grandmother’s 86th birthday. Went to Cleveland for a high school friend’s wedding. Discovered the joys of community acupuncture. Been doing some writing, going to readings, scrambling for more summer freelance work, riding my bike around on an ongoing tour of NYC wireless cafes–maybe I’ll post my thoughts on that soon.

I’m staying at a friend’s apartment on the Upper West Side while she shoots a film in my place this weekend. It’s really nice here, to be in a big place in a bustling neighborhood with SUBWAYS and multiple food options. I really need to move soon–the one laundromat in my neighborhood is closing down!

I have a huge head cold right now but I’m trying to get it together. Tomorrow morning I’ll be doing a reading at the CUNY Conference on Asian American Women which means I need to be magically awake, alert, and coherent at an hour when I am normally not out of my pajamas (but no one needs to know about that).

I was also accepted into the VONA residency with David Mura! So I’ll be off to San Francisco in late June/early July and can’t wait. Since plane fare is so pricey, I’d love to stay a little longer and do an apartment swap for two weeks (dates flexible) with someone in SF, so if you happen to know anyone, send me an e-mail.
