Today, in a different timeline, I am preparing to make my first-ever trip to Hohokam Stadium for the Mariners-A’s tilt this afternoon. I am thinking about a stop at Zur Kate restaurant to take a picture and to find out how an authentic German bierhaus came to be located in Mesa, Arizona. The sun is shining and I am driving my rental car, a fast little Fiat with red leather interior, towards baseball on the horizon.
Instead I am wrapped in a blanket in Seattle compiling today’s links post and avoiding unpacking a suitcase full of unworn sundresses and sandals and sadness.
