Joe and I fail today.
Forgot the 1/2 day. Forgot piano lessons. Forgot t-ball practice.
Sigh.

Thanks, quest!
My history professor in college was the first person to note that I enjoyed the history of ideas. It's the way I organize history in my head, by getting the broad overview first and then filling in the context as I learn more about something.
Though really the moment the light went off in my head for abstract art was from reading a piece by New Yorker writer Roger Angell about George Brett (Hall of Fame baseball player) and his swing.
It was one of Angell's specialties to be able to break down the complex oddities of a particular player's style. Their pitching motion, or their swing. Anyway, the detailed breakdown of Brett's swing was so complete and so clear that my brain just flashed, "His style is what he does. There's no distinction between style and content. The way he swings the bat is what he is as a hitter. Huh. That's Jackson Pollack too."

All is well that ends in pizza.
Because I love you all and Andi is not here to stop me from posting this:

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Ha! I had seen the xkcd take on the recipe generator (here: [link] ) but not the original. I should've known there was some actual internet weirdness behind it!
