"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

As always, I'm more grateful than I can say for all you invisible friends in the little glowy box. You've been a constant in my life for more than 20 years now, and I don't think I'd be who I am without this place. I wish you all brighter days ahead.

Much love to you, and your beautiful family. You know, flea is fleeing to Cape Cod so I'm sensing a whole diaspora of families returning to the welcoming environs of Massachusetts. Sometimes the Geographical solution is the correct one.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Things got better for me when we were able to travel up to MA this summer, and I feel more strongly than ever the pull to move back up there. We've pretty much given up on trying to move for Mark's job, and he's feeling pretty burned out on academia anyway, so it's up to me now to find a job that will get us back to Massachusetts. So that is the big project for 2022.

I very much approve of this project. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help from here.

More MA buffistas would be awesome.

The problem with the welcoming environs of Massachusetts is the housing prices.

They have been going up and up lately. We’ve gotten so many letters from real estate people who want to buy our house, which is not for sale.

Be wary. I have been getting text messages from strangers wanting to buy the house I haven't lived in since 2007.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Some people - much less ethical than you - would jump on that and sell. It's happened.

We wouldn’t do anything without a real estate agent.

What is even happening?

Kate, that's a big year. What kind of work would you be looking for? I'm asking because I'm nosy, but also because I can keep my eyes and ears open for you.

Cindy, I'm looking for a position as a school librarian, ideally at the middle school or high school level. Thank you for keeping an eye out! I just lined up a Zoom interview for a school in Andover next week...

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Kate, my sister-in-law is a middle school math teacher in Lexington, I'm happy to ask if she knows someone who needs a librarian!
