Tonight John had a memorial for his mother, a lovely party, part memorial and part dinner party. There were many professors there and the talk was often of various levels of university politics. I thought it was a shame since they were all capable of holding forth on much more interesting topics. The man I sat next to was an expert on the relationship between James Joyce and Samuel Beckett. Wow. Beckett ran off with Joyce's mad daughter and they became estranged until a street person stabbed Beckett next to his heart and Joyce came to visit him in the hospital. I love old drama of real artists. Today I checked out a big fat book about Gauguin and Van Gogh in fact. Then I met a person who actually knew who Ray Johnson was. Amazing. I'm glad I got to share in the evening with John and Anna. They came to my party and splashed in my pool last night. When I came home I jumped in the lighted pool and it was so lovely as always. I love my pool. And now to sleep perchance to dream.
