this is not what i wanted to post.

i wrote a blog about the eeriest thing, but it wouldn't let me post it and the inspiration has slipped.

just recall the siren, and the silence among all that chaos, and the flashing lights in the foreground of the blandest of skies.

this week was ridiculous. less than a month to go.

one of my professors brought a tiny little kitten to class today. he found her while he was driving, squealing on the side of the road next to the roadkill that was once her mommy. so tiny and precious. we touched nose and she purred. first week in the world, i wish i could remember.
