My mother missed having dinner with Lyndon Johnson because she couldn't find the right hat to wear. While my father went off to the white house to break bread with the President, my mother, who's not a things and stuff person, stayed at the hotel and tried on 10 different hats and missed dinner. ↗

A few years ago in Chicago, I rented an office, and I went there every day. For the most part I do work at home in an ugly room. ↗
