EasterSundayrain.  Melancholy has struck. This month last year my ex was in a very bad hit-and-run that landed her in the ICU. What is it with people who run over a person WITH THEIR CAR and then drive away? The carnage, the pain and horror. 

I am listening to Vivaldi's Concerto in C Major for oboe. The arpeggios alone are so strenuous and wonderful. And he doesn't even take a breath. He must have the lung capacity of a whale. 

I did it. I put together 40 poems for R to put into the yes/no piles. I have a goal to be published this year. Me, just myself, no anthology for me. No sir. 

I watched the first episode of Absolutely Fabulous last night. Again. Genius, pure and simple. I might have to watch the rest of the first season for the mood I'm in.

Beth if you have a chance to see Art Wolfe's Between Heaven and Earth do. Your beautiful photo of the woman with the marigolds reminded me of the show.

You will be published by some lucky publisher and am sending out selection energy so that you have enough offers to be choosy!

Yes, publishers fighting for me, yes!!!

I almost cried at my desk this morning reading a story about an 89 year old man who accidentally ran over his 89 year old wife in front of a local CVS.
