W.I.P.A. - works in progress administration

is it funny to riff on the WPA? whatever.

i actually have good stuff today. i thought about my bits through the day. had three. forgot one. wrote down the other two. did more stuff and found a new third. came home and remembered the old third.

1. wow. tracking on USPS international priority mail work damn near magically in norway. i woke up. did usual morning who know's what. got an email. "attempted delivery" on my package. which i interpreted to mean that my package pick-up form was sitting in my mailbox. and it was. i grabbed it and hustled over to the post office and retrieved. !!! my NEW LEATHERMAN SURGE!!! this seller was kind of a major headache but the tool is finally in my hands (well - on my belt - more on that later). i already had to use the included diamond file to file a spot on one of the blade-locks that was not getting proper clearance. i just forgot something to say about this.

2. if you throw discs in light, even, powdery snow cover -- sometimes when they fall and roll to a stop they do so in a way that makes perfect fiddlehead/nautilius curves. mmm.

3. the original third will have to wait because it involves some drawing or photo taking. anyway. i owe in part to indirect inspiration from stuff on my friend sasha's blog which i think i started reading today because her birthday was today or soon. anyway -- links and documentation of some sort tomorrow.

4. today a venezuelan somebody who barely knows me -- trusted me with important life information. that was nice. i was going to explain more but i am just going to shut up knowing that i spent another day consuming not a lot and making some folks feel alright with fun and food and companionship.
