(Wednesday, January 13, Center City, 6 a.m. EST.) An unidentified woman was found weeping and incoherent, muttering in French about Imelda Marcos, Carrie Bradshaw, and a litany of shoe designers. She was huddled in a ball, on the steps of Traffic Court, wearing a London Fog trench, La Perla lingerie, Jimmy Choo red satin pumps, [...]

Dear Family of Strangers Connecting:
How odd to wake each morning and think of you, immediately. Even as dreams hover. Even as the week’s worries crystallize too quickly, as I wonder what we shall say to each other, as I picture you rushing to jobs, to schools, to computers, to the day’s errands all too hurriedly. [...]
