The Met

taken alone, this shouldn't result in the total boredom i experience in museums, as it should yield at least some pleasure to start with. why the absence then?
i secretly fear that if i don't see everything, i'll be called out for it. that is, years of industrialized education has brainwashed me into thinking there will be a test on everything academic i accomplish. did you see that incredible pollock piece? or the monet's? what about that rembrandt? i'm driven from gallery to gallery, forever unsettled by the thought of the next gallery i need to see, never really enjoying the present one i'm seeing.
my solution = limit the scope of what i choose to see, and increase the depth of what i do see.

When Nicole and I finally got our blog ready, it was one of the happier days in our marriage (ranked behind the time Maci took a three hour nap, but ahead of the time we got a free Bloomin' Onion at Outback).
Yet our new-found happiness was shattered with each attempt to post a new entry--
That's not funny enough.
No, no one really cares about that.
That's not clever enough. Maybe we should . . . No.
How about . . .? I don't know, never mind.
Classic Blogger anxiety.
But, as we learn in the Good Book, it's time to repent.
Therefore, in lieu of trying to be clever, funny, witty, intelligent, political, philosophical, ironical, ergonomical, and economical (time's being what they are), here are a few pictures of Maci.
