Saturday Top and Bottom Five

I'm taking a much needed break after a hard week of dredging up memories from the far-reaches of childhood. I'll be back with more memories tomorrow, but for now, enjoy the best and worst from the week:

Tops from the last week:
1) My first cyclocross race... do we smell a new athletic fixation?
2) Visiting Lisa's eighth grade students and talking to them about writing non-fiction... I think some of them were listening...
3) Moving out, and cleaning out my room... I feel so much lighter, and ready to spring to the next step!
4) Mike Pulli... a married man!
5) This week's blog posts... sorry to toot my own horn, but I've had more readers this week than ever before!

Bottoms from the week:
1) The rain.
2) The fires in California.
3) I haven't seen Becky in nearly a month...
4) My time in Brooklyn is quickly running out...
5) Four days to go and still no Halloween Costume...
