Where the Hell Did the Sun Go?

My window display is beginning to affect the weather outdoors. Or, maybe the other way around. On my way home from my little knitting circle (yes, I have a knitting circle, shut up.), the thunder started rolling and there was some spectacular lightening. I thought for sure that I was going to get trapped, jacketless as I was, in a downpour. But, I managed to make it all the way home without getting wet. Usually, I find these situations a little thrilling - or I used to anyway. Last night, however, I was freaking out. The hair on the back of my neck was standing up and I was suddenly and irrationally afraid that I would be struck by a thunderbolt. I was sure I felt doom creeping up on me.

uh oh, things are starting to look grim.,don't forget about the concerned birdies.

As you can see, there are only a few new clouds, but they look a little grim compared to the others.

A Cloudy Day in Helldontown

Another set of clouds has rolled in.

a second set of clouds roll in,the real outdoors, reflected

But they're still light and fluffy, so the birdies below don't seem too worried.
These pictures are of the backside of the whole window display. The opposite side of the clouds have some detail, but you're not missing much. This is the side I stare at all day, so it has to be somewhat entertaining. Partly, I'm just wondering if the people who walk past it day by day will notice what's going on. Also partly, I need something to amuse myself with.

Feeling a bit....mopey today. It's probably because I'm out of meds (again). Stupid.

Paper Cut-outs of Hell

Yes, I've been remiss in updating Little Tragedies. Sometimes, little tragedies and minor changes obscure the path to blogging. There was a death. There's a new job. General malaise. Much Gummi Popcorn updating. I like having that site as a form of expression, because it isn't so personal.

But, I have a big window in my new office. It looks right out into the hallway - whoopee. So, a while ago, I decorated it with little paper-chain birdies. They were just hanging out.

These birds are a paper chain

But then, I decided that the birdies needed some drama. See that cloud rolling in from the East?

a cloud rolls in from the East,the birds are wary of the drifting clouds

Oh. There's another one coming from the West...

first, came the birds,then, the clouds started rolling in

I wonder what will happen on this glorious landscape of glass. Stay tuned......
