@dogtrax And a response: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpnIrE7_1YA&index=9&list=RDIOWN5fQnzGk It was a happy day.

Midnight, Christmas Eve into Christmas Day. Waning full moon. Now is the time when the animals speak. A delegation of the oldest ewes gather around me and begin to sing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_Br3cpKHzA When they are done, one by one, they turn away until only Bluebell is left. In silence we sit and praise the moon and the day and the time that is left to us. In the distance I hear a train and an owl and the creek, all in their own kind of midnight lyrics. We all sing. All of us. #SmallStories

Merriest! https://youtu.be/ph5OW9p-GHM

Here is some Sunday play with digital ...writing? Is it a rebus or an in-joke? Or neither? You tell me.

Elegy. Lamentation. Memento mori.

The ones are dead,
long may they 'none',
the zeroes are, too,
long may they 'done'.
Long live memory.

A #smallpoems #haiku response to @dogtrax blog remembrance/analysis: https://goo.gl/jixAK8

A lamentation
for all those ones and zeroes
sacrificed, erased.

@dogtrax LOL, the secret lives of students.

@GeoffreyGevalt Lots of cool technique here AND the music is Tom Waits-cool.

@dogtrax I listened while tree trimming yesterday. If you want some juxtaposition to something that is the musical antipodes to The Christmas Skates give this a listen: https://youtu.be/HDclLr-GhdM Discovered them through Gnoosic music discovery service: http://www.gnoosic.com/

@GeoffreyGevalt Glad you are in the neighborhood. Thanks for the support. Points to you even though the points don't matter.;)

@dogtrax Hope you listen to the story by Shelwin Sleeves I included. It is worth the time. And thanks for the care and concern. My boss pushes for 'rigor' and all I can think of is 'mortis'. Luckily, I had a nearly retired, fellow instructor who heard this complaint one day in my newsletter and dropped by my classroom. He stood in the doorway in the middle of my class. We all turned to him and he said, "Don't change a thing." He turned and walked away from our puzzlement. #SmallStories

Your presence...so nice.

@qwazix I have a series of questions on a whiteboard next to my desk. I will look at them until a week before the next semester, then I will act. Rolling them over in my heart of hearts, kindly and empathically I hope. 'Simmering' as you aptly write. Nice image of a bullet train coming at me and a best score arising from no effort. Thoughtful of you. Thanks.

My grades are in (god how futile), my email vacation responder is up, and all my idiotic assessment requirements (don't ask) are complete. The dawn is breaking as if none of this matters...because it doesn't. Today is the day I will scout out an ugly, scraggly red cedar with a nice top. I will cut it down and trim it to size, bring it into the house, secure it in the tree stand, water it, string it with lights and ornaments and listening to this: https://youtu.be/Yo0SOGcfwKc
#SmallStories Real.

@gid @thegibson Thanks
