Spring fever has become epidemic amongst elementary school kids. The ones who participate in the BioSITE program were all extra excitable and much more easily distracted than usual today. One girl even fell in the river. Luckily the river is little more than a glorified creek, so no harm done other than that which can be inflicted upon clothes by mud and water.

We got the van back with the air conditioning fixed, so the kids won't melt this summer. The weird electrical problem is still a mystery, which at this point doesn't surprise me. I think the van really is possessed by some mischievous entity who occasionally tweaks a wire or tinkers with the onboard computer. We're not quite ready to call in an exorcist, but that may have to happen some day.

The moon is full, and the nights have been slightly cooler this week. Nice.

cds I listened to while being mooned by the moon: Current 93 "Hitler as Kalki", Rube Waddell "Stink Bait", Gudon "s/t", Rasputina "Frustration Plantation", and Storm Inc. "The Calm Years"
