Winterlude 2024

It starts now. I’ve gotten myself unpacked, and I’ve made the best of this beautiful but totally not functional Airbnb in Ithaca..

I’ll be here for the next three days. I’ve brought all my journals from the past year and I’m going to do a year-end review of my hits and misses, wins and losses, and demerits and gold stars.

I think when I see where I’ve been, I’ll know where to go.

Maybe. Hopefully.

I have only three days to figure things out. It’s not enough, but I will make the best of it.

I bought a Travellers Pass at Mighty Yoga for $59, and that gives me unlimited classes for the next 7 days. I’m booked into a “Mighty Flow” class tomorrow at 9 AM. I’m stoked. I’m “going to yoga” just like all the cool kids.

When I return from yoga, after a stop at Gimme Coffee, I will burrow myself into this cozy little nook I just feng shui-ed out of the unrelenting whiteness of this space.

Zee put it perfectly after I described this place to her. She said, “It’s like they created a stage setting for a play and didn’t actually write the play.”

Exactly! It’s all cutesy decor, with zero livability.

But I need to get some rest now. I’m going to yoga in the morning!
