Wanted: Teleporter



Getting ready to hit the road - or the BART and United Airlines, to be more accurate. This is the stage of the business where I always want to just close my eyes and be there.

There are people who can pack to go round the world in a couple of hours. With me, packing expands to fill time available. If I allocate a day to pack, it takes me a day and an extra frantic hour of tossing out excess stuff. Regardless of whether it's weekend trip or 3-week tour.

I will blog much less frequently while I'm on the move. But I'll be back on Feb 10th, just in time for the Mistress of Spices Reception at the Oakland Museum. Meanwhile, if you read this blog from NY or Nairobi, come out to my shows there in the next couple of weeks, and please come up and say hello afterwards.
