In the midst of kafuffle.

1. I like the sound and sight of seagulls flying across a grey and dripping sky. It makes me think of salty sea captains and ocean waves crashing over ships and ocean shores. It speaks to romance and adventure.

2. My professor of the Sociology of Everyday Life brought her granddaughter in to tell us about her everyday life. So we learned about horses. They don't throw up. Ever. She was adorable, and had to stand on a stool to reach the microphone, and kept whispering questions to our Prof.

3. Someone was handing out free novels outside my class building. It's a story of two six year olds with rich imaginations exploring the woods behind their remote Alaskan homes one summer. It looks interesting; I might like it.
