From yesterday’s I Have to Get Out of the Office walk, this is a chair in one of the bathrooms in the building next door. This part of the university has old buildings that used to be part of an elementary school campus. The toilets in this particular bathroom are about six inches off the ground.
Oh, and that sun we had on Monday? Rain all day yesterday, and today we get the dreaded Wintry Mix[tm]. Joy.
The sun was out yesterday. I have proof! Who knows when we’ll see it again, though. It’s supposed to be rainy and snowy and gross tomorrow.
Circle the ghosts
and dance for joy
on this sacred day
And may I say, I’m not at all sorry to see that Papa Ratzi is resigning at the end of the month?

The world is round,
and time is fleet
And my purpose is not
what it ought to be.

I lie down weeping
among the weeds
and hug the world
until it stings.
The image in the first spread would not fit, so I had to cut out one child. I added her to the second spread.

High and far,
from a distant star,
In its hurrying race
through unknown space,
those little troubles
and little needs,
are overcome
and swallowed by the sea.
