Winter Winter Moon
Those words, Winter/Winter Moon, above the posts signal the cozy world I inhabit right now. It gets cold and snowy outside. I turn on the green gas stove, sit down at my computer and find out what Ovid meant or what it is I will mean when I write Loki’s children. My yixing teapots fill up and drain, infusion after infusion, Yunnan White Needle or Master Han’s Looseleaf Pu’er. One clear and flavorful, the other dark and rich.

The light fades and I prepare to workout, that 45 minute to an hour moment of very physical activity. I enjoy it, miss it when I don’t do it, but all the same I wish I didn’t need to do it.
After that there’s supper, some TV or a book, or both, with Kate, then later bedtime. Over night the study cools down and the next morning I get up and turn on the green gas stove. It’s winter, cold and snowy outside.
