Stuck Inside

DSC_4239 So it’s pretty clear that today is the nicest day ever, and I am inside writing a paper for school because earlier in the week, when the weather was bad, I procrastinated and did other things.  Right now the temperature is in the mid-70s, and there is a cloudless sky of deep blue.  The azaleas have just peaked next door, and are so bright and pink as to almost be vulgar.  Indeed, color that vivid outside of nature would be seen as offensive.  Elke just gave me another heap of fresh strawberries, and I am watching the squirrels through the window foraging for acorns, of which there were millions this year.  I am presently listening to Bach’s Flute Sonata in E Flat Major, BWV 1031.
