Reviewing a bunch of pocket notebooks. There is gold here.
Coffee shop today. The barista was aggressively playing dissonant free jazz as a counter against people doing online meetings for hours in the reading area. When I came up to compliment the music, he smiled. It’s always good to meet your people.
Pipsqueek bagels are very good, but not a half hour on a Sunday good. But damn, once you get there…delicious chewy bagel, with incredible home made toppings. Fresh as hell. Decent coffee. Much to recommend…on a Monday.
I will not become the kind of poet who only writes about her cat.
New notebook protocols
Just got a small leather cover for holding three field notes notebooks. This isn’t going to replace my current daily notebook system, where I have a stuff sheet wallet that holds the current field note and a pen, as well as some note cards, stickers, and sticky notes. This will hold the last three notebooks that I have already filled. It makes it easier to review the notes, and mine them for ideas. When I get bored, I can review my own thoughts. Pretty nice.
