Since I knew I had to eventually do something about the moldy bathroom, I asked the clerk if I could take a piece home to see how it would look. So I did, yesterday, after much swearing and patching. Inexplicably, my 9 by 10 bedroom looks bigger, and with the lights out the ceiling becomes the night sky with limitless depth. I know that nothing exists eternally. Everything in the universe is subject to decay.
Nothing exists essentially.
But I sure do like the wallpaper. Saw a curious apparition arising from the side of the highway this evening. Well, they put up a new one on the highway which is vertical. And on this vertical billboard they had a lovely image of a lush valley, stretching off into the distance. In the foreground were two cowboys, smoking cigarettes at the fence line.
