Kesher Talk

I just wanted to pop up for a minute and say hi from sunny warm Austin TX. Well, it was warm and sunny yesterday - what I call California weather: dry, mid-70s, cloudless blue sky. Today it's kind of gray. (When I boarded the plane in Newark on Thursday morning, it started snowing and we had to wait for 2 hours while they de-iced the wings and requeued us for take-off.) But Austin had an ice-storm 2 weeks ago, so I had to pack for any weather from 40 to 80 degrees.

I moved to NYC last March and had a return ticket that I had to use before one year was up, so I went "home" for a visit. Coincidentally, SXSW starts this week, and tomorrow I will use my free day pass to hang with my homies at the Her Domain booth and check out the The Third Annual Weblog Awards. (The ones Meryl said she would not set foot in Texas for because she hates Texas.) (I know she made a comment to that effect on her blog, but I can't find the link.)

I am staying with very wired friends with a balcony with hammock and lovely view of hill country, and an ethernet connection. But blogging will continue to be intermittant because, hey, I'm here to visit my friends and go hiking on my favorite trails and maybe hear some music. But if you are a local blogger, email me and maybe we can meet for a cuppa. I hear Ruta Maya moved, but Spider House is still the same old charming patio hangout.
