  I turn on the switch,for the kitchen light:nothing stirs.Your shadow at firstdark as space,fades and falls behind.The streets climb into silence,listening forthe pulse of evening in your step.Where you come clean:as bare-ribbed winter treesThrust against the threatening sky.©Dean J.

• Not So Remarkable

  
  — Authority:
  I find myself both festive and funky during the holidays. Our loft is already over decorated: red velvet accent pillows on the couch, giant artificial red mums in a fantastically large silver vase on the dining room table, a wee tree (twee, thank you) decorated with little red velvet bows and tiny silver stars on the ...

  Its early mornings I like best Sitting on the back door step Hands clasped around a hot mug of coffee One of the cats smooching So quiet you can almost imagine you live out in the countryside.   That stillness, that dripping dew stillness And a suggestion of mist-smell in your nostrils The garden all greens, ...

  My husband and threw a small party, a brunch, the other day. An introvert throwing a party? Yep. Im not antisocial. I like seeing friends and offering hospitality.

• The American Psyche: Tipping Toward Solitude?

  
  — Authority:
  Bella DePaulo writes in Psychology Today: I live alone and I am almost never lonely. I am also rarely bored. Then I realized something that seemed startling at first: During those atypical times when I am bored, I am almost always with other people. I’m never bored when I’m alone.

• It’s the end of the world as we know it; Sony feels fine

  
  — Authority:
  I’m sure Roland Emmerich who, according to Nikki Finke , is receiving 25 percent of the grosses for his $200 million budgeted “ 2012 ,” is also feeling pretty good. Of course, now he has to figure out if he about to earn enough money for his own end-of-world-blocking fortress of solitude in case all those ...

• Learning Guitars, Listening to the Greats

  
  — Authority:
  What music genre relaxes you? Mine is classic folk songs, even if Dan Fogelberg’s Leader of the Band guitar score is one i can only imitate imperfectly. I’ve watched Fogelberg’s solo on Youtube and the rendition is a soulspeak with his husky voice, the string’s simple and distinct variation, and the ...

  X Below is an excerpt from Samuel Beckett’s quirky novel, Watt , which I recently finished reading. This particular passage struck me in an odd way, making me aware, for the first time in a long time, of a mental gizmo I’ve intermittently recognized as part of my own apparatus.

• The Communion with Nature

  
  — Authority:
  We are all vulnerable, partly because we are totally exposed. As John ODonohue says, although this very exposure allows us to have positive experiences, such as smelling the roses, seeing the waves and stars, and reading the hieroglyphics of the human condition, it also makes us feel unsheltered. His cosmic view is ...

• My Wacky Brain: I Swear It Could Give Me An Aneurysm

  
  — Authority:
  Its funny. When single, I always thought I would end up with a cute, Jewish girl from NYC who had a split-your-sides sense of humor like Sloane Crosley or Sarah Silverman (I wouldve included Tina Fey, but shes not Jewish). Turns out, I did waaaaay better: a beautiful, quick-witted, part Cherokee woman from Oklahoma ...
