hi. i'm ben. yes, the real ben.

sarah wanted me to tell you all that she's sick with influenza type a, so if she's not posting too much, that's why. of course, she beat me to the punch with her earlier post, but there isn't anything like a reiteration to make things better.

today has been a strange day. the clouds have gathered in a strange ritualistic dance over this town, and shaken the ground from which we make our sky.

this is not a good season for rain.
