Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...
It was comforting–and yet disturbing–to read your column (“Note to self: Plan to stop planning,” by Alison Neumer, July 15) and recognize that I wasn’t alone in the constant planning, scheduling and rescheduling of get-togethers with friends and family. My girlfriends and I usually reserve one Saturday a year in Chicago for a few hours on the beach, and, sadly, for the first time we couldn’t even get this together because of other commitments that we have every single weekend.
I’m forwarding your column to all my girlfriends. Maybe that will trigger some spontaneity.
