Waking up with the lyrics in your head.

The smell of bone broth simmering.

Hard, hard, rain. I want to go back to bed, back to the dark, with a book and my coffee and the sound of the rain.

I start to write emails and then remember Jeff’s trick. Don’t bother people before 8 am. I turn the computer to airplane mode and let everything sit in the outbox until a more reasonable time.

I do like order.

We set a time and catch up. It’s so good to hear a familiar voice.

Leftover duck confit and duck fat fries for lunch.

Mouth and jaw stretches at the desk.

2018 Heitz Cellar Quartz Creek Chardonnay. 2017 Pax Mahle Armagh Vineyard Syrah.

Take it all back?
