Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.

I've started an appendix (I no longer have one personally) to keep track of my Space Cadet journals for Space Blog. It's a work constantly under construction. Mind the mess.

6:30 and 72 degrees, but feels warmer. Walked to the store and bought groceries. Packpack was full and a bit heavy. Hard coming up the stairs.

The English above is a poem. It may be even harder to parse than prose. I took out the space between words for a reason. The following is an approxiamate in Thai. Thai has no capitalization or punctuation. There is no space between words. There's only a space between phrases or sentences. This is how it normally looks! May be a puzzle to English speakers but it's actually easier to parse as vowels mark word boundaries and only certain consonant clusters are allowed.

มีดอกไม้ ดอกไม้มากมาย และหญ้าแห้ง หญ้าหวาน เราเดินผ่านทุ่งหญ้าด้วยแสงจันทร์ หายไปท่ามกลางดอกไม้ในตอนกลางวัน
มีดอกไม้ ดอกไม้หวานมากมาย คุณเลือกช่อแสงแดดสีทอง สานพวงหรีด วางไว้บนศีรษะของฉันเหมือนมงกุฎ ฉันมีความสุข
แต่ เราทุกคนต่างก็เติบโตขึ้น ตอนนี้คุณบอกว่าคุณไม่เห็นฉัน อย่าทำหน้าบึ้ง ในฝันของคุณคุณจะรู้ฉันจากฟาร์
ฉันเดินเตร่ท่ามกลางกลีบดอกไม้ที่ร่วงหล่น ในทุ่งหญ้าพันดาว

ในทุ่งหญ้าพันดาว (in the field of a thousand stars)
can only be parsed ใน ทุ่ง หญ้า พัน ดาว (nı thùng h̄ỵ̂ā phạn dāw)

ใน the vowel precedes 'n'.
ทุ่ง the vowel is under 'th' and the low tone above.
หญ้า too complicated for me to explain as I'm learning but ห cannot end a word; it marks 'h' or high tone.
พัน two consonants, short vowel above the 'ph'.
ดาว the vowel 'a' falls between two consonants and าว is possibly pronounced 'ao'.

After noon. Warming up. Went out and saw friends. It's been ages since I saw Parris and Nancy.

Used my new computer but might still return it.
