Willow is home and sleeping in a crib in our room. The other kids crowded around excitedly when we walked through the door with her, and The Dickens even licked her. Of course, she also licks dogs. So much for cleanliness. Now, in the wee hours of the morning, The Dickens is awake, and Jen hasn't gone to sleep yet. Somewhere a cricket is chirping. I have a feeling I should try to get some sleep now. I am happy.

cds I listened to while rushing to get back home: Ofra Haza "Shaday", Mecca Normal "Who Shot Elvis?", Odetta "Sings Ballads and Blues", Total Egon "Samling I Det Grona", The Billy Nayer Show "The Ketchup and Mustard Man" soundtrack, and Paradise Lost "The Last Time"

now: Popol Vuh "Bruder des Schattens - Sohne des Lichts"
