rain.
i like to stay in bed and read in the rain.
movies, long phone conversations with far away friends.
pj's, clean laundry, toast and jam, coffee.
from my bedroom window i can see debs park, and today
the green has a foggy and gray backdrop.
i can hear the train, not the goldline but a real train.
a perfect day for lying about and relaxing.
maybe tomorrow instead.

work work work.
too much work right now, although it's fun and i am grateful, a lot of people are not working right now. still i prefer art, and music, and my free time to go to the gym and read. for the last few days i have been in bed by 8, i come home and i am exhausted.
i am ready for this busy spell to end.

weekly meeting of the collaboration foundation last night.
almost the whole road crew was there and it reminded me of some of my favorite parts of our recent road trip. I am realizing why the whole thing seemed so relaxed and easy for the most part. for one thing, ms. sarah p. came up with a brilliant idea of assigning us all one fork, one plate, one cup. you dirty it, you wash it (or not)..at the next stop. what a simple life, a. zittel style. the idea that i had only one place to be, which was wherever i was that moment, only one sleeping bag (thanks, mike!) 2 pair of jeans, one pillow, and one cup, fork and plate.
simplicity. perfection.
once again i have too much, i feel a spring cleaning coming on.
