No.

You really don't want me to write anything to you today.

If I did write today, it would be about the things that are already being written about by everyone else. The thickness in the air outside. How excited I am for "Mad Men" to come back on the air. How this list is making me want to read The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas. How I need to go shopping for a dress to wear to a wedding, and how dismaying it is that everything these days seems to have ruffles in inappropriate places and only one strap. How I saw a pair of shoes on a girl today with a basket weave toe and I wanted that pair of shoes and then wondered if they might rub in the heel.

(These are the things in my head. Sometimes better left there.)

How I was thinking it would be nice to take a train somewhere again.

(You see.)
