I feel completely empty-headed today, like some kind of well-adjusted extreme athlete. My verbal faculties have completely vacated the premises and I am staring at the blank page, quill in hand, wondering what anyone could possibly have to say right now. For a long time, when people talked about “brain fog,” I wondered, “Do they just mean… thoughts?” Now I can see the error of that assessment. No, brain fog is real, I am having it, and in many ways I feel… free? I will let the newsletter stories do the talking. Today’s stories will thrill and delight you, shock and excite you, alight and ignite you. We have the best places to travel in May, a guide to seasoning blends from Trader Joe’s, a beautiful train route through the English countryside, and the best group Airbnb rentals upstate. I am off to wander the cloudy beaches of my own mind.
