I like the randomness of your brain! Also how autobiographical content can be woven into a larger narrative. I admire you for these qualities of spontaneity and yet clearly well-crafted content.

Alicia, I loved this, and the way you wove the two topics together. Must read again! It seems that you could write a story based in part on your experience at Nordstrom; so many evocative elements there, not least in the emotional realm of mind-body consonance and dissonance. And, I must read more Grace Paley, wow! Thanks so much!!
