Everything is grey today. The light grey sky interfacing with the dark grey Olentangy river makes an appropriate background for the concrete bridges and concrete buildings with pale faced people in dark colored coats scurrying in and out of them on campus.

And I feel grey today too. My emotions are fairly even, but caught at a really low level, a flatline with a low tone, drawn in grey. I've been listening to the band "Low," an old favorite of mine, from the far northern Minnesotan town of Duluth, right on Lake Superior. This album cover of their's would be a pretty good approximation of how I feel, if only it were a little darker in shade.

Yes, I would have to say that I feel happier today than I've felt in a long time.
