HE SAID, MARIE, MARIE, HOLD ON TIGHT

And when we were children, staying at the archduke's,
My cousin's, he took me out on a sled,
And I was frightened. He said, Marie,
Marie, hold on tight. And down we went.
In the mountains, there you feel free.
I read, much of the night, and go south in the winter.

mister sun
as this is a lonelier semester than last semester (this is what i get when i quit dance, move into a new house, start working in a serious press, do independent study--lectures aren't lonely, but it is lonely to be reaching into a universe of infinite ideas, and designing your own course), the solution is, I NEED MORE SUN! SUN! SUN! WHERE ARE YOU! I MISSED MY MORNING JOG, SUN! :) i'm so ridiculous:) but i do need to be more careful about how i thread. i can feel it in my bones. that i am an old bird, i honestly am (said the same way i told sasha, i'm an old bird. yes, you are an old bird, they laughed)

reminder to self: i have a story about "the messenger", setting yantai, that i want to write out.
