My fault there’s no coffee klatch today
Friends,
I missed my plane, so I couldn’t get back home in time to meet Heather for coffee this morning. Apologies to you, and to Heather.
It’s all my fault. There was an incredible traffic jam on the way to the airport, but I should have anticipated it since the weather was awful. The airline rebooked me on a plane that got in late, but I should have insisted on an earlier flight.
So for the first time in almost two years, I missed our klatch.
Sorry.
We’ll be back next Saturday morning.
By the way, my resolutions for the Jewish new year are to stop blaming myself for events over which I have no control, and to recognize when I have no control. Shanah tovah.

Hi, Bob and all! Just seeing this lovely post and your generous comments. To echo others, all is forgiven; what matters is you getting home safely. I'll keep my topic list for next week (though maybe brew a fresh cup of coffee!?). I'm off to do the NYT Spelling Bee. A good year to all celebrating! Thank you for listening to the klatch (and reading it, given that we're now able to autogenerate transcripts at long last!)! All best, Heather
It’s ok to cut class Professor- you’re retired. You go home late, you need rest to rejuvenate your body- please go take a nap!
