It was another exciting day in lower manhattan. As a patron pointed out, one day of this was more disruptive than three months of OWS.

Patience and Fortitude: Update and Shifting Blogging Priorities

Emily — Fri, 29 Jul 2011 13:38:09 +0000

I’ve been busy- so busy that I will be starting a new job again this summer. My new employer has active blogs and social media and I hope to shift my professional library and public service blogging to their substantial and well-respected sites. My personal essays on other cultural subjects will find a home at museumclubnyc.com as soon as I have time. Thank you all for following my adventures here at Fly Into The Mystery- it has been a wonderful creative outlet for experimenting with literary and professional voices and staying connected to far flung friends. Please stay in touch, faithful readers, I am thinking of you.

All You Need is Love (and a job and a place to live)

oh, my practical middle-class heart… These are favors from my cousin Molly’s fabulous Chicago wedding. Due partly to my own damn fault and partly to outside factors I managed to squeeze a whole year’s worth of events into the past month. On Easter weekend we said goodbye to a great man, my step grandfather Johs Clausen. Then I returned to Beverly to say a less permanent goodbye to all my North Shore friends and colleagues in a whirlwind of weepy story times, tasty dinners, and a lovely party hosted by my dear friend Pat Danielson overlooking Beverly Harbor. Then to Chicago to toast Molly and Jeff and sample local cheese and beer at the Haymarket Brewery. We squeezed in an architectural boat tour on the Chicago river. Then back to Beverly to pack the truck. Caper and I moved on Nick’s birthday into Nick’s home. Surprise! Then I headed right back to Massachusetts for my college reunion with awesome Park House friends. Then back to NYC, to a conference for Museum Educators. And then I got the “you are finally on vacation” flu. And now I’m finally settled enough to jot this down for my few faithful readers. More about the job once I’ve started and much more about Astoria, my new neighborhood, but I am pleased to have carried off a number of challenging life changes in a short period of time and I’m sorry I’ve been off the grid here for a while, hope to catch up with you all soon.
