The cd Rain Blessings, by Jean Ryekiel arrangements and piano and Lama Gyurme singing, is playing. It is truly beautiful. the patio door is open and the heat is coming in as I was cold and put on a cardigan. I am doing a bit bad on smokes: I am on my 9th cig in 5 hours. I feel tense from lack of nicotine. I read the postwar japan art book again today. On photograms which were first known around 1910 I think. And Hasegawa did his in 1930s Japan. Life is even better since I have decreased cigarettes. I do way more stuff instead of just sitting on the couch and smoking one cig after the other. These cancer sticks. Ouach!
