Danny and Krista



My brother Danny and his girlfriend Krista came over last night. I fried us up some steaks with onions and garlic and boiled some new potatoes and poured some salad dressing on some lettuce. Rupert was pretty good about it all. Except for the time he tried to kiss Krista.

It's good to see some of the new generation who aren't obsessed with Facebook or Twitter or the newest independent films or the hottest indie rock. These two couldn't care less about all that. They just want to spend their days swimming in quarries and hiking through the woods.

When you live in New York so long you forget what it's like in the rest of the country. My dad always talks about "the wisdom of the masses". John Cheever said anyone who didn't live in New York "has to be, in some sense, kidding." I'm still not sure who's right.

  1. It's funny that John Cheever said that, because people who don't live in NYC say "who is John Cheever?"
