As I boarded the orange line trolley on a Monday, my eyes snapped to the empty seat next to the conductor’s cabin. The usual occupant wasn’t there.

They say you never forget how to ride a bike. Can you forget how to date? It’s been a few months now, and—nervously, a bit unsteadily, feet on the pedals—I’m doing it. I’m out there in the world, meeting people, and can say, “I am dating.” It’s fun, and it feels so different than it did when I was i

I was never a traditional vacationer. I had no interest in all-inclusive resorts or curated itineraries. I never wanted to just “get away and relax.” I felt the humdrum of corporate office life to be perfectly predictable and routine, thank you very much. In my time off, I craved spontaneity and exp
