This October, I have enjoyed:

- the above from my Flickr favorites
- the leaf colors, the way they glow, look lit from within
- baking bread: zucchini, banana, crusty french
- weekend poetry workshops
- meeting Junot Diaz
- listening to books on CD on my commute
- election signs that agree with me
- the last harvest in the garden, turning over compost for next summer
- the kind of running that is still a bit like shuffling, a bit like galumphing
- warm chai tea
- clean cotton sheets
- reading. reading. reading.
- trying to find a way to fit "clotted snow" into a poem
- returning to Michigan, still working on that series of poems
- plans for Thanksgiving
- sleeping in
