not how I want to start my week

Good morning -- got up, went to the gym with Soren, found interesting topics of discussion here in LiveJournal Land, read bad poetry online, got to work on time, am getting stuff done here

-- and Soren just told me that Damon Knight is dead.

Fuck.

Well, nothing for it but to go home, reread some of his work, and rejoice that he lived, and wrote, and that I could read his writing.
