Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois produced this incredible album when U2 was what kept me alive. I would add this one to my mixed tapes, as it evokes so much passion.
Today is my first day technically "off" since before Thanksgiving. Sadly, the weather didn't want to cooperate, offering a case of the SAD blues, so I lit a fire. Today is my last day of Sensory Analysis, and I have just one paper to complete for the class. I am sitting at a 97% and honestly don't care if I don't ace this one. In truth, I have learned a lot-- but I have been so busy with work that I feel much of it didn't take. Is this what retired people do all day? I don't like it all that much.
I've had more time to read this year compared to year's past, which was something that I wanted to work on. The book I am reading for club is meh.
The Correspondent by Virginia Evans is written in letters that lay out her story. Clever idea but I just don't like the protagonist all that well. I'll keep reading in the hopes it gets better.
Lost Man's Lane by Scott Carson (Michael Koryta), now THAT was a story. Our club is actually thinking about starting his new release, The Chill.
Earlier this fall I completed James by Percival Everett and thoroughly enjoyed it.
I heard an interview on Stephen Colbert with Jesiut priest Father James Martin and his new book, Work in Progress, which I need to tend to. Lastly, my media specialist gives me books for My Free Library and this one looked like a good read:
New York Times Bestseller In Five Years, by Rebecca Serle. So lots to read!
This is the time of year when I start to research places I would love to visit. With spring break coming up, it would be so nice to get away to someplace warm. I miss the ocean. I miss gliding through the water effortlessly. I miss....

Walk on by, walk on through/
So sad to besiege your love/
So, hang on
hope you are finding some joy, as always.
