Listening to XTC’s Skylarking. Drinking 19 year old French Rhone wine. Letting a dinner of seared Chilean sea bass, Parmesan crusted scallops, and lime finished shrimp settle. Talking to my wife while my daughter reads. Lovely evening.

Today’s discussion in the car on the way to school with Beatrix, age 11, included love and friendship, what it’s like to get dumped on Valentine’s Day, being one others can confide in, and how to use prime numbers to figure out lowest common multiples. It’s a seven minute drive.
