Thank you so much to so many people for the calendars. We keep about half of each paquette of calendars and mail out the other half to groups and individuals spread out all over Spain. They light up my map with little points of light that weave between them connecting nets. They're also terrific P.R. For something so small jewish calendars are very highly prized, especially when they come from someone as a gift. Of course you can go to some URL and print out your own calendar which has all the sex appeal of a light bill sitting on the hall table. But all the calendars sent to me are then sent out to others with your and my fingerprints all over them are like beads of homeopathic "medicine". Circle of Life! Hakuna matata! Calendars are little boats anchoring us in the unanchorable sea of seconds, minutes lapping against the gunnels (gunwales?). Monthly islands of fiestas marking the way as we sail off into the horizon to eventually become a part of the timelessness of it all. Time to live! Time to die! Always time to wash the dishes!
Anyways, so much for the poetry. I've sent out hand-written thank-you postcards and notes to all but ONE on the list. Someone please raise their hand and tell me who sent me a great paquette of calendars from: Eden Memorial Park. 11500 Sepulveda Blvd Mission Hills, CA Anybody? Don't be shy. I have a great postcard of the Barcelona central market with your name on it (that or the goofy castle in Zamora), comes with a real spanish stamp.
