Anyway. The earth is clearly tilted too far on its axis. Portland's climate is here. Do you prefer rain, or mist? We have both, alternately. Sorry, deliveries of California sunshine have been delayed due to storms over the Pacific. At least the day is brightened by the dogwood across the street, now in full bloom. Alas, the few remaining camellias are no longer their cheery red, but have deepened to several shades of purple and brown, like bad bruises. And, this afternoon, even the birds have fallen silent. That moody part of myself which loves gray days has been sated by this reticent spring. This weather is more suited to defiantly lively city streets than to fields and woodlands, which drip with gloom if left too long in shade. My brain, like the perpetually damp trees and silent stones, gathers moss.

Friday was not memorable. Though I didn't wake up until near noon, that was only about six hours of sleep, and around sunset I felt very tired and…
