keeping on.

in case any of you are worried, we're safe from the fires. we also bought a vaccuum cleaner. i'm starting to head into Major Reading mode, the kind of school time where i spend most of the day on my bed with my nose in a scholarly book. it's not fun, exactly, although it's not not fun, either. classes are going well, although it's clear that we're about to leave the calm place as the storm of the end of the quarter warms up. everything ends and is due the week before christmas, so november is the warm-up and december is the thunder.

i did get to go see some SITI company war-of-the-worlds goodness last night. a small group from school went, and as sometimes happens, i could judge my simpatico quotient with any given individual by his or her response to the show. i was absolutely mesmerized. and sad i'd left new york without taking classes with SITI. you do what you can, and their classes are always in the middle of the day and expensive, but. sigh. wow.
