The Rug
Lesson plans need to be written but I keep fooling around with minor room details. Today I used fabric scraps to make a small rug for my fake pet dog Carney. After working on that for awhile I decided I need to just go buy a real rug and some random dog accoutrements, like food bowls and some plastic chew toys. Maybe toss in a few dog books too. I suppose it seems like an avoidance technique, but right now, getting the Carney details down feels critical. It's as if everything rests on getting this right.

I miss all the beginning of school stuff.
Perhaps the upcoming trip to France will provide a sense of beginning and ending. Perhaps I need to convince myself that it will, as I am experiencing a level of cynicism about my job these days that can't be good for anyone, especially me.
Perhaps i just have the 7 year itch?

when do you leave for the trip you're taking, the one that makes me envious?
The intermediate date worth noting is Sunday, August 19; Bob and I, along with some other more experienced folks, will be climbing Mt. Whitney.
We start our trip this Wednesday, after a Tuesday night Patti Smith show in SF with Ms. Butler. Yeah!
I want to see Patti Smith.
V. badly.
