3. Free wireless at Panera.

4. Sharing the latest episode of Modern Family with my husband.

the day of going to see a play, reading a play, and playing:

I am grateful for:

1. Rocco, the fawn-colored French bulldog puppy, who is the bouncy four-month-old suitor of my 10-year-old dog.

2. Having money and time to see “in the next room, or the vibrator play…”

3. Having money and time to buy plays and read them.

4. This odd spring/fall weather.

5. Meeting a woman who just moved to my town who has a tough (but trainable) adult rescue dog. I hoped I gave her good advice: don’t quit, take it slow, and be patient.



I am grateful for

1. meeting an adorable girl dog named Sedaris who looked part corgi, part pit, and all adorable.

2. a compelling episode of CSI starring Tippi Hedren! (The Birds) that got me through a treadmill session.

3. Dark chocolate Reese’s peanut butter cups.

4. Discovering that Lady Gaga has a sense of humor…and so, again, does Madonna.

5. Just contemplating buying my dog a lobster costume for Halloween.
