You know the feeling you get when you wake up and realize it is the weekend? Or Christmas day? When you think of the upcoming vacation or party or event that you’ve been planning? When you suddenly remember that your going to Italy in a week? Well that is how I feel every time I look at Lucas.

“There were bells on a hill
But I never heard them ringing
No, I never heard them at all
Till there was you

Huddle (n.) – a small group of people holding an informal conversation
On January 21st we marched, on February 5th we huddled. The intent of the huddle is to keep the Women’s March spirit alive, build the movement beyond those who marched, and set a concrete plan of action. Twenty gathered, shared ideas and brainstormed actions we can take collectively over the next 100 days and beyond to support and protect our beliefs in Human Rights, Immigration, Healthcare, Education and Climate Change. Our actions will include participating in events from town halls to marches, volunteering and fundraising for non-profit organizations that are making a difference in the causes we believe in, getting the message out and our voices heard from our Senators to our neighbors and impacting upcoming elections. It is time to turn reaction into thoughtful, educated, consistent action.

Our hotel is on 57th and 7th, just north of the quintessential tourist attraction Times Square. The kids have their $4 flavorless hot dogs and while sitting in the center of the sensory-overwhelming digital billboards pronounce it the best hot dog ever. We make our way south to 42nd Street. We see Aladdin, a dazzling show that captivates us all. East is Bryant Park. Remnants of the holiday fair remain. We find a cozy spot with cocktails, churros and a great view of the ice skating outside.

“I’m a Nasty Woman.
Not as nasty as a man who looks like he bathes in Cheeto dust.
Not as nasty a man who is a diss track to America.
From back to broken back he’s stomped on, his words are just more white noise ruining this national anthem.
Beginning in 4th grade students may elect to play a string instrument. I thought I knew all the nuances of “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star” but hearing it from the earnest hands of 9 and 10 year olds has given me a new appreciation of this timeless, childhood song.

Ragnar Kjartansson is 40, lives in Iceland and is closing his three month long solo exhibit at the Hirshhorn Museum today. Ragnar is a performance artist and brings together live endurance theater, large-scale projection, popular music, photography, painting, and drawing in his first major U.S. museum retrospective. Kjartansson draws upon his own history to create work that combines theater with experiments in repetition and endurance. Deeply personal themes such as birth, death, and family meld with satirical commentary on politics and Western culture.
