Palm Sunday. Read the St Matthew Passion at three services. Asked Alexa to wake me a 6:00. She did not. I woke in full daylight and screamed “What time is it?” Alexa said, “It is 7:19 AM.” Zoomed down to Biltmore unshowered and unbathed to get there for the 7:45. Was moved when the earthquake began. The Gospel reading did get me out of the procession. Inflammation so bad I walked like a cripple. Better now. Flat cool beauty of spring. 

Watched a production of Jesus Christ Superstar deep into the night.

Wearing the shirt I wore for my first North Carolina Driver’s License photo.
