Preparing for quiet bombardment. I used to run and jump and draw and make light. To the streets, with yellowed sheafs!

After another day of tragedy and strife, it’s nice to end this 24 hours on a high note.  I teared up watching the people of NASA celebrate.  Amazing & uplifting.  So, good night, World.  We are capable of horrible things, but also great, awe-inspiring things (and some silly ones as well.)

Still and all, why bother? Here’s my answer. Many people need desperately to receive this message: I feel and think much as you do, care about many of the things you care about, although most people do not care about them. You are not alone.” —Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.
