A quiet birthday all around. They usually are, and I received many excellent new pairs of pajamas! (Please feel free to imagine me in an Edward Gorey sketch at this time.) Tomorrow, I take off for Punta Cana, so until Friday I shall be drunk in a somewhat warmer clime. (Ed Gorey effect off.)

Oh, and Marianne got me a copy of “A Wrinkle in Time” (I’ve never read it!), so I can read that on the beach. Or buy a Cosmo at the airport.
