O roar of the universe
[The subject line's from Allen Ginsberg's The Lion for Real]
A downside to being an adult: having to say no to picnic plans because copyediting comparative lit crit is currently kicking my butt.
An upside to being an adult: I am currently baking banana-cardamom-rum-chocolate-chip bread. Because the bananas were ripe, and because I can.
Another downside: more mourning. The price of becoming fond of more people.
Another upside: friends sending Smooch Lions!
In today's mailbox: the newest issue of UU World, which includes my poem "Proportions."
Horsies I correctly picked to win today: Dancing Lion (Monmouth allowance), Imposing Grace (Arlington Matron Stakes)
A horse that placed: Admiral Kitten (Arlington Classic)
