Rock, paper, scissors...

It's a coin toss, it seems. What aspect of my house will I clean today? And how much time will I allow myself to muse and write poetry. These are the things I like most about spring break (cleaning & writing). On that note, let me encourage you all to do some of the same of both. Cleaning declutters the brain and allows you to think better--honest! There's something about watching the ordering of disorder that locks into the brain's perspective and improves its function. I am consciously aware of it because I have a pattern of letting certain places in my house fall into disorder only to pounce on them at last and restore them from chaos.

Those of you planning on going to the movies need to be sure to be very careful in the parking lots through which you'll be walking as you travel around the shopping center. The rain distracts people, and they don't drive as well as a result--nor do they see small moving objects, like young people, darting about.

I have to admit that an hour in a bookstore or coffeeshop on a rainy day is enticing. If I can get enough work done, I may meet you at B & N for half an hour or so before you go on to the movies--but I may not, so don't wait/look for me. I mean, what's been planned is unofficial so my being there would be a chance occurrence anyhow.

Enjoy your day, darlings.
