Aug. 3rd, 2004 12:23 pmThis week and next I will not be at Diesel. ! I have been at Diesel every Tuesday since the second week of August last year.
Where am I?
I am at the National Havurah Committee's Summer Institute in New Hampshire. (www.havurah.org) I last came to the Intitute with my family when I was 14. There are a remarkable number of people here whom I know from past years -- adults who look exactly the same, and kids who have grown up. I am taking classes and listening to improvised music and discussing and drawing and playing Scrabble and making friends. At midnight I felt like sleep would be a waste of precious time.
Next week I am visiting my favorite aunt, Janet -- my mother's younger sister. I am like Janet. My grandmother and even sometimes my mother slip up and call me Janet. She's the artist in the family, and I love her and I don't see or talk with her enough.
