April and December are my low-volume blogging months. The reasons? An abundance of schoolwork and a lack of sleep. In response to the increased demands on my time, here is a brief list of things/thoughts that made me smile this week, with explanations.
Cherry blossoms: they cover the far edge of the pond at Millersville. Huge catfish wag their fins just above the surface, flicking away the blossoms to make little, moving chasms.
George MacDonald: whom I read in the summertime.
Breezes through my third-floor bedroom
Tiki time: tiki torches, back yard, "how was your day?"
Fresh asparagus: fresh anything, actually.
Bright purple clothing
A haircut: but I'm waiting til July to go above the chin...
Making my point in a paper: Auteur Theory. It can ruin a Michael Bay film without even trying.
Choosing a new book to read
Choosing an old book to read: these two acts will not happen for another three or four weeks.
Family visiting: Mom, Dan, Michelle, and Chelsea visited last Monday for lunch. We played storybook pictionary at Lindon's diner. Next week, Stephen and Megan will visit! We're headed to Longwood Gardens.
Road trip: I'm ready for one! Anyone with a sunroof is welcome to take me anywhere without notice after May eighth. All unauthorized trips subject to the whim and care of Thomas Campus Deli, the availability of this author, and the weather. See terms and obligations listed elsewhere for details.
Hooray for George MacDonald!
