Saul Williams

Last night I had the chance to hear Saul Williams read his poetry in a small setting. I HIGHLY recommend this experience to ANYONE and EVERYONE.
PLEASE, for the love of god, if you can, GO.
I also had the good fortune to get his autograph on his new book, which, although it really means nothing in the end, made me happy.

This is one of those experiences that has registered so deeply that I find myself having a hard time recalling it. I think it's more subliminal/subconscious than anything. I heard a lot of what I've been learning/screaming about for some time, but the subtlties are what make all the difference.

I think what registers for me the most is that deeper understanding really is not a lot more than the realization of the limitations of my prior and current understanding.

This is true in all things.

SNOW!!! FINALLY!!!

15 inches of white stuff, and it's still coming down!
YAY!
All winter, we've been having insane temperatures. It's been mostly 50 and 60 degrees (Fahrenheit, for those in Europe reading this). I mean, this is the second year it's been around 55 degrees on New Year's eve.

Last night my family and I went out and had a midnight snow ball fight in the parking lot. We ended up just grabbing each other and rolling in the snow! It was great.
Then we came in and I made them Mexican Hot Chocolate. Mmmm...

Thanks, mother nature, for keepin' it real...
