I realized that the photos I’ve been putting on craigslist to sublet my apartment are really old, and after the spring/summer decorating the place looks completely different now.

During my last cruise someone asked me: “When did you know you wanted to be a professional juggler?” I thought about it for a few seconds before replying: “Exactly ten years ago today.” Which, to be honest, is only half true. Ten years (and now ten days) ago I didn’t know I wanted to be [...]
