deer crossing.
it began with the random choice of my reindeer shirt
the obvious selection for a springy-summery day
i wore it on a visit to my daughter
as we sat in her yard
i saw something
out of the corner of my eye
i looked over
to see this guy standing there
looking at me
he must have seen me
out of the corner of his eye
i headed over to
the hidden and understated
hard to find
artisan oasis
known as
motawi tiles
where i came across this beautiful
handcrafted tile
and i knew
this was the one i was meant to own
all signs pointed me clearly in this direction.

sloth and the art of possibility
one of my favorite fund-raisers ever, sitting quietly at the register of my favorite local mexican street food carryout place.

to sign own self be true –
except for now and except for this lane and except for this orange barrel and except for who knows how long?
