Breaking Up With New York. Saying Good-bye to the Biggest, Baddest City in the World. Sunday, September 19, 2010. Goodbye New York, I've Changed My Name. Two big moments happened in the life of the Exile this week: I changed my name officially and I registered to vote in Pennsylvania. In Pennsylvania! But that is apparently what falling in love costs these days: Lots and lots of paperwork, lots and lots of hours filling out forms. I want to be officially Mrs. FF, old fashioned girl that I am. And then ap...

Urban Exile awoke a few mornings ago in the dawn's early light making desperate croaking sounds. In her dream, she was saying "No, no, no! Don't leave me here! So why, in this idyllic setting with so many happy possibilities unfolding before me, why am I waking up from a nightmare gasping and screaming? Could it be the apple smoked bacon? This is the ...

Breaking Up With New York. Saying Good-bye to the Biggest, Baddest City in the World. Sunday, April 10, 2011. What To Do When You Break Your Leg. It is two months since my accident. My main social events of the week are a couple of visits to physical therapy, assisted by my fabulous neighbor Denton, and dinner at the Eagle Diner with my patient husband and, lately, caretaker FF. One of the thing I deal with most is loneliness. Poor FF said the other day, "But are you lonely when I'm here? The first time ...

Breaking Up With New York. Saying Good-bye to the Biggest, Baddest City in the World. Friday, December 31, 2010. This is the last post of 2010. Once a year we watch midnight come, as if this time we might hold it in our hands and have more time to examine that moment, turn it over and really look. And so the moments, consequential and ordinary, flew by at the same incomprehensible speed for me, and I was lost to nostalgia for the day before the sun even set. Friday, December 31, 2010.

We only just got the custom blinds installed in the kitchen, and I know hurricanes: They mess stuff up. Saturday, August 27, 2011. Links to this post. Saturday, August 13, 2011.

Breaking Up With New York: Adapt or Die
http://breakingupwithnewyork.blogspot.com/2015/05/adapt-or-die.html
Breaking Up With New York. Saying Good-bye to the Biggest, Baddest City in the World. Saturday, May 2, 2015. The garden is a savage place. Here in the Piedmont it's spring. But such a strange spring it is that even in mid-April we were running outside at dusk, arms laden with any sheets not covering mattresses to shield the tender plants against the freeze. In times of global warming, my daily battle in the garden is how I, middle-aged now, face my fear of the future. What would I do? Breaking Up With Ne...

Breaking Up With New York. Saying Good-bye to the Biggest, Baddest City in the World. Wednesday, June 29, 2011. Breaking up is (so strangely) hard to do. Our break up is now official, New York. The closing of my Harlem apartment happened this week. Without me. Because I had already evaporated, New York. Sorry, I simply could not. Make it. And as you are well aware, the fact that I was not physically present at our final date was most definitely your fault. So, so typical of you, New York. But for now, I ...

Breaking Up With New York. Saying Good-bye to the Biggest, Baddest City in the World. Sunday, September 11, 2011. Watching New York from Afar on 9/11. I didn't want it. When AG and I came back to the United States, it was because we missed Americans, not the city. How I love Americans! And I wanted to go home. We all love and we all lose. Every day. The hero that lies waiting within each of us of whom Biden spoke is honorable, whether or not we are the ones called upon to race up the stairs of an...To ma...
