I have been teaching, grading, practicing yoga, running, cleaning, printing and typing up poems, preparing to be in DC and NY next week, trying to decide what to read and how to read, and what to wear, reorganizing Lester's cage so that he doesn't get bored and overly possessive of his toys, and so on. Also, I've been admiring the Western Bluebirds that have suddenly showed up in fairly large numbers to hang out on the Miracosta campus. They are handsome birds.
