then there is the
also-obligatory bit from thomas merton, to wit
This is May. Who seen any robins?here is what bean just said to me about our professional futures: "do you think that editing my books will give you the intellectual stimulation you may feel you're lacking by just delivering babies?"
on sunday my mother will come up & spend the night & on monday she will drive me to campus so i can prove my worth as a student of statistics & of human development, & then we will hit the long road across the ohio river. maybe she will let me drive her imposing silver beast as we go.
tonight i am going to see the lizardess, & i may just dye my hair.
