Here (David Byrne)

Last week away from home felt like the longest so far. The disappointment of losing out on 9 Barrien Ave hung over phone calls with Andi while I lugged my suitcase through midtown, to Baltimore, and across unmaintained sidewalks and Dey Road. But I got to see the Vessel on a run, song Karoke in Koreatown, reunite with an old colleague from Emergent, and work with a team in a cramped construction trailer. The best part was coming home and hanging out with Natalie and Andi in the kitchen, and getting word yesterday after brunch at the Klausnitzer’s that a three bedroom apartment in Highland Park was coming available May 26. Whew. Also this week: the Iowa primary ended without a tally, Trump was acquitted by the Senate the day before his State of the Union speech, and temperatures in Antarctica hit a record 65 degrees Fahrenheit.
