Very low on energy today; I've got to take a nap before I go near any spreadsheets or slides. But before I do, let me count some of the ways my life is good:

  • I have a job where midday naps are possible.


  • Receiving some Palestrina to practice.


  • Locating a charity that accepts leftover medications.


  • This egret - and the haikus it inspired...


  • ... and following through to this post, where this exchange made me laugh out loud:


    asakiyume: Oh cripes, do people think I'm posting pictures of a dead body?!

    redcoast: I am from the south! For all I know there's always dead bodies defrosting up there!



  • marymary pointing me to Glenn McKee's "Late Fragment" and an editor's thoughts about him. (Note to UU readers: McKee's career included service as a UU minister.).


  • Jeannine Hall Gailey's "Love Story (With Fire Demon and Tengu)". (Note to Socrates: includes an allusion to Dorothy.)


  • I don't currently own a red dress, but I baked brownies Sunday night. I used Mark Bittman's recipe as the starting point and added in some pecans, a mashed banana, several splashes of bourbon, and some shakes of cardamom, cinnamon, and red pepper flakes. The result was a bit dry (should've added more butter) but reasonably tasty.


  • A lovely note from Rae. I was just looking at the cards you sent, my dear, and savoring anew the textures of the papers and the letters.


  • There are more violets in my front yard than there were yesterday. And also a bright red tulip in front of the fence.
