Peach

"...you're a peach among plums, my dear..."

the best compliment of my life thus far, and my friend Nathan's response to my embarrassment at putting a big foot, much larger than my normal size 38, in my mouth in the presence of this century's literary and artistic greats yesterday evening.

that's why i love new york, for it's daily dose of humility, and for the generous souls i've met here.
