Overnight, the temperatures cooled and I put on my pajama top. The sound of a helicopter hovering somewhere over Brooklyn woke me around 7:00 AM. I have to move my car today for the street sweeping so I think that I'll go to ArtToFrames.com early to use the Internet and prepare for the meeting today.
The day feels flat again. In my youth, days that started like this turned out to be the best days.

The Life and Times of a New Hampshire guy
Introductory Words
- Tim Somero
- I'm a technical writer who lives in New Ipswich, NH. In the summer of 2007, I was laid off and I split time between New Ipswich and Brooklyn, NY for the summer. The beginning of my blog contains a chronicle for the summer of 2007 while I lived off my severance pay and saved money. Time and circumstance led me from the thrilling hustle of New York City and back permanently in New Ipswich. After finding some short-term jobs, I settled into familiar ground as a technical writer in the high-tech industry. Writing during my adventure to New York City was easy. Everything was new, exciting, and rich. Everyday life in New Ipswich lacks hustle. Neighborly conversation is often slow, yet rich in context and societal concern. Inside I burn to write and I will occasionally post something here as the need to write strikes.

Tim, Following your blog helps me feel less alone in the world. Thanks for keeping up the daily posts. I enjoy them. The Art of Community was interesting. I find your descriptions of the people on the street almost as enjoyable as if I were people watching myself. A favorite pastime of mine:-)
