"Mucking about" Class

Quite recently, a new friend invited me to a class I had already considered attending.  It was held at the local library by a "writer in residence" -- I really could write a lengthy essay about it, as it was quite exciting and worth contemplating.  But I won't do it today.  It is too beautiful out and there is too much to do.  Tomorrow, I have a workshop with Music Together. -- Both classes should serve me with the church preschool, let's just say that.

Here is a picture I drew of my collage of stones, shells and beads for "mucking about" class.  It is a present for Sam.  Humble, I know.  But he is not a despiser of humble presents.  It revealed to me a "borderland", in the spirit of Hyde.  We see how all the treasures and discoveries are at the border between the land and the ocean:  the starfish, the sand dollar, the button with the anchor, the shells:  where the raging waves meet the stable land, etc.  It was supposed to be an exercise to get writing juices moving, though we did no writing, that time.

Is this a new robot-defector?
