I pulled together more haiku than I could possibly imagine out of this computer and out of the blog too (pre-laptop). Wow. I got really good at the necessary search and replaces to throw them into a form so they could be imported into a database. I have to figure out a reasonable way to “rank” them and then some way to print them. I did see that I can easily print in “label” format which might work. I found one that was six to a page. Eight on a page would be ok too. I have no idea how that would work.
Anyway, tonight I emailed a friend from warcraft about this and he replied with great news – he’s getting married! woot! So happy for him – he’s had some dark days and he’s such a nice young guy.

spent the day reading
so many haiku to sort
counting seventeen.
october morning
settling onto ridges
fog between the hills.
the dollops of clouds
you may call them morning fog
glow in the sunlight.
Molly, small black cat
greets me at the door nightly
and then skitters off.
I send a hello
comes back with happy, good news
so glad for my friend.
is it the ocean?
or a steady rain on leaves?
or wind in the pines?
the beady black eye
of the wooden rooster
that guards my work room..
