a sliding scale




while out in the garden this morning i realized that ADD and gardening go together quite well.  this evening when getting food from the garden for dinner i was shocked to realize that after doing this for some length of time an intimate harmony would develop.  i am not close to having this with ours yet but it seems to be among the noblest of my intentions.  sustainability supports an interesting aesthetic, one that depends equally upon both the producer and the consumer.  good only so as good for both.  

i have a habit of imagining overlapping circles.

"the hillbillies were wonderful.  dylan and dead covers. some bluegrass tunes, some original stuff. during their second set and after we had eaten dinner i went walking around.  meandered over and stuck my head around a meditation center that had just finished a session of sweat your prayers out.  talked to a delightfully odd fellow sitting with a picnic table.  his form was impeccable.  i asked him if he lived around here and he said he lived between his skin.  lady in the parking lot was selling parsley and basil on a little table.  said she was also a wwoofer.  inside the young woman at the desk said that i must have been the one smoking the cigarette outside.  she could still smell it.  she looked like she wasn't anybody's favorite.  i muttered something incoherent, picked up some brochures and walked out.  the new year's dance ceremony is $108-140."

  1. Okay, first I have to say I find it a little weird that of all the possible blog templates you could have chosen you picked the EXACT SAME ONE I have set up for my English students to use! I shit you not!

    Now, having gotten that out of the way, let me say that blogs are great. I think this is going to be a sweet way for the rest of us to live vicariously through your adventure. Love you! Watch out for native, okay?!
