All of the colors and annoyances were giving me a headache. This is white. I needed the white and the simple and the clean. It’s a grown-up blog. I’ll try to update this. Most of it is going to be less-than-exciting posts about life. However, I am going to try and post more writing and poetry.
I have henna on my forearm and foot and it is making my happy. I did it for the bellydance show, but it wasn’t dark enough for anyone to see it. It darkened last night and is now a rich brown. All of my kids are going to be asking me about it and I’m looking forward to that.
There is some terrible construction going on outside. There is some kind of giant spaceship machine that sucks up the road as it levitates over the surface and beeps it’s immodest horn every 15 seconds. After the spaceship is a parade of grandmothers in pointy straw hats with woven baskets that stoop over to fetch the leftover pieces of road, as if they were picking ripened fruit to fill-up their picnic totes. A man is practicing the trumpet somewhere, too.
