Took quite a bit longer than I needed to with this one. I stretched it as much as I could, because I truly, genuinely didn’t want it to end. Give me a never-ending continuation of this, with the readers and countless books in which for them to dip, a

"Using "Ulysses Annotated", the Joyce Project online, the Gabler edition, and the 1939 Odyssey Press version to do as comprehensive a breakdown as I can, going through each annotation and variation, and essentially reading each page three times: a casual page-at-a-time scan, an annotated page-at-a-time perusal, and a bolstered re-read of the whole chapter. 1 week in and 20 pages done. Wish me luck?" — May 20, 2024 03:24AM

Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
I have measured out my life with coffee spoons.”

“Loveliest of Trees
Loveliest of trees, the cherry now
Is hung with bloom along the bough,
And stands about the woodland ride
Wearing white for Eastertide.
Now, of my threescore years and ten,
Twenty will not come again,
And take from seventy springs a score,
It only leaves me fifty more.
And since to look at things in bloom
Fifty springs are little room,
About the woodlands I will go
To see the cherry hung with snow.”
― A Shropshire Lad
