The Art of the Day is: the Art of Riding Emotions
I was watching a bit of the Winter Olympics, and it occurred to me that emotionally I was doing a Snowboard X. Navigating highs and lows, and bumps and landings at great speed. The object is to stay on your feet. The object is to keep agile. And yeah, it involves an element of fearlessness, and skills learned by practice. And it didn't escape me that it was a race to the bottom, but that's where all the people were.

Some days "It takes all the running you can do to stay in the same place". This blog is to chronicle the running, and point out the interesting things, people, places, I meet on the way.
About Me
- Name: the other Joan
- Location: New Hampshire, United States
I've lived in all 4 New states, NY, NJ, NM, NH. I grew up as far away as you can from Manhattan and still take the subway.(I used to put subway tokens in my penny loafers so I could click my heels three times and go home). I've sung solo in the Parma Opera House. My brother and sister are twins. I believe that people want to be used, but they want to be used well.
