Flutterings

I tell you, geeks are adorable. I went to an Adobe CS demo yesterday and the spontaneous applause for the "spot healing" and "vanishing point" tools completely warmed my heart.

In the midst of getting ready for houseguests. Linens to be laundered, dust buffaloes to be dispatched, etc. My plan for the weekend is to kick out three thousand words or so while the guys are noodling around Eurofest (car orgy), but I reckon there'll also be time for barbeque and bourbon.

The moss roses have started to germinate. The Dobrogosz Mass is still kicking my butt but I've fallen in love with the sustained high Es in the middle of the Sanctus.

From Marge Piercy's "The Art of Blessing the Day"

What we want to change we curse and then
pick up a tool. Bless whatever you can
with eyes and hands and tongue. If you
can't bless it, get ready to make it new.
