"Eyes Like the Morning" sky

When I went out to take the Younger Daughter to school this morning the air was cool, moist, and crystal clear; there were beads of rain on the windshield of the car. Overhead the sky was magical: grey clouds with little patches of blue-grey sky between them, edged in the East with shards and streaks of golden sunlight.

It was exactly the kind of sky that I had in mind when I wrote "Eyes Like the Morning" all those years ago.

Odd day. Not very productive at work, but I got a lot of decluttering done at home. A good walk; a little ankle pain, so I didn't push it too hard. Five bags of magazines taken out of the office; after this it gets harder because I'll have to sort envelopes and lots of small objects and gizmos, and make decisions about where to put them.

Marty ended up making dinner -- I have no idea what the YD's problem is.

Spent some time on system administration; turned out that my webmail accounts on Dreamhost were over their disk quota, probably because of spam to "postmaster". I'll have to make sure I run fetchmail often enough to keep it cleaned up.
