I love Steinbeck too, and Cannery Row is one of my favorites. I used to have a crush on Doc, in fact, I think I still would if I re-read the book now.

Nicole:
Attentive moments, indeed. I thought this morning about how January is a time for practiced, thorough, in-the-moment living: to dream, make plans for the far-enough-off, and also make no sudden moves just yet.
In rereading Steinbeck (or our own sentences of life that we’ve laid into our narratives), we remember that we still can perfect it, like Steinbeck. And ponder those beer milk shakes.

I know . . . Sometimes I think I have to slow down just to remember how much salt to put on my food. And it really only takes a moment to become conscious — stop, breath, think, be. Thanks for the nicely written reminder. It’s raining in Michigan too. Think I’ll take some time to listen to it today.
