Midday, as the sun passed over us:
Chas dangled from my arms like a marionette,
complaining that I wouldn’t let him swim.
I inadvertently pissed off the fish.
I think it was my shirt.
Ford asked me to retrieve a berry,
he later pelted me in the head with it.
I fed Chas avocado chunks, but he didn’t eat much.
I worried that he isn’t eating enough.
While Ford asked “which is faster, ‘x’ or a satallite?”
Where x = many, many, many different things:
jet planes, cars, space shuttle, rocket…

I love you post, beautiful shots, what a poetic day! Maybe it didn’t feel like that all the time, but you have done a great job at reflecting its magic.
Thanks

You are inspiring me to be more creative with my camera! My children have become such posers–I can’t seem to snap a shot without catching their attention!
Great pics & thoughts ;-)C

AHh–that has been my kind of week as well. Inconsistant to say the least. I loved your descriptions: “like a marionett” and “where x equals manny many things.” Such perfect little fragments.
I also learned from this SPT that you have an exquisite sense of style. If we every hang out, we’re going shoping and you can teach me 🙂 six.five days out of seven I’m wearing jeans and a sweater. Ug.
