I loved this as a 50 year old woman and as one who is a visitor to LA from the east, like you often feel, though you reside there now. And I appreciate taking solace in a wall or a car seat or an empty movie theater or a community garden. Just a good alone place to feel alone and be alone for an alone moment. xoxoKatrina. Loving your essays!

Right on, Liz, and right on, volleyball woman! I know and love a woman very like that in her early 80s, who I've known since my childhood in Venice--she was our Linnie Canal neighbor in 1969. And though she is no longer playing volleyball, she is walking, swimming, acting and writing and creating art. I'm turning 63 tomorrow and I want to be these dynamic women one day. Onward, amiga!
