Musical Interlude: I'm taking off on Friday for a little weekend road trip, and this song is certainly appropriate for a long drive...although perhaps for when one is not in a very chipper mood...
"World Seems to Come and Go," performed by Holly Cole.

My introduction to Japan was an intensive Japanese course at ICU in Mitaka one summer, so walking the wooded paths of the campus to give a talk on world building last month brought back so many memories.
Peddling a mamachari to class each morning through the sweltering summer heat. Learning to unwrap convenience store rice balls. Feeling my first seismic tremor...

Melancholia
Late evening moon rise,
Woodburner roar,
The room dark.
Shadows from the fire
Jump spaces.She leans into her chair,
Legs up and arms wrapped
Around her knees,
Stares at the flames.That fiery dance,
The start of it all.She shakes away
The wistful memory,
Disentangles the claws
Of the past from her
Mending heart.The night ages.
She doesn’t move.
The fire whispers.
Sleep in here
Is her relief. -

William is wistfully longing for a real Spring, there is an alarming low of 29° in Vermont this weekend.

He gave a pained, #wistful sigh as he patched the fence for maybe the hundredth time. Everything here had been wrought of his own hand, and everything was falling apart. It had been pristine once.
This place had meaning. Pretty soon it would lose that too.

She looked up, caught in a #wistful memory of the stars and constellations of her childhood, before every visible inch of sky was filled with advertising.

"What am I doing, Roughneck?"
"It's not my place to say, sir."
Curtains gave him a #wistful glance, then spun the empty tumbler around on the bar with a finger until the bartender brought the bottle of Kalanova over and refilled it.
"She's pregnant," he said, then downed the shot
"So you said, sir."
He went to spin the tumbler again when Roughneck grabbed it.
"I think you've had enough, sir."
"Curse, you, Roughneck," Curtains growled. "If I could stand, you'd be in a world of hurt." -
Once a Shangri-La, this disused picnic nook symbolizes the transient nature of utopias. The abandoned corporate campus evokes loneliness and decay.

Musical Interlude: This wistful tune matches my own wistful feelings when spring gives signs of being on its way....
"Let Me Fall in Love Before the Spring Comes," by Hugh Blumenthal.

Weather report lied!
They warned of torrential rain.
Could have ridden bike.
