Crystal Y. Jolley-- I wanna tell the story of the natural mystic who told us my future, but its so creepy and unbelievable I need someone to back me up. I need someone who was there!

This year april had a blizzard
Just to show she did not care
And the new dead leaves
They made the trees look like children with gray hair
But I'll push myself up through the dirt
And shake my petals free
I'm resolved to being born
And so resigned to bravery

Yeah the one who leaves this also grieves this
Too much rain on a prairie flood plain
Houses floating, love is like that
We built on a river

-- Dar Williams, Spring Street

A quick aside from conference yesterday: Sharath took a nap in his car at his cousin's wedding. He is my teacher #teamcarnap
