HEY HARRY, Why is it so cold outside? It's like sometime turns a switch at the end of September, and the whole vibe just changes to winter.I’ve been a little aimless of late, or maybe just distracted by the nippy air. I don’t want to put on pants again. I can’t leave the house.I need to locate the midpoint between a loafer and a boot. What are you up to? ... *[continued](https://instagram.com/p/776IjsmvN7/?taken-by=heyharryheymatilda)*

HEY MATILDA, I've been reading John Cage’s Rules for Students and Teachers:Rule #8: Do not try to create and analyze at the same time. They are different processes.Do you know what rule #9 is?Rule #9: Be happy whenever you can manage it. Enjoy yourself. It is lighter than you think.I tell this one to my students all the time ... *[continued](https://instagram.com/p/7vCriIGvGE/)*

HEY MATILDA, The boyfriend reads the Economist? I give you two seven more months at the outside. I’m sorry you’ve forgotten that I don’t like kissing, but I’m sure you do remember that I like to get all my important correspondence out to folks on Tuesday mornings, as that’s when they’re most likely to read and respond. Tuesday between 10 and 11am. After coffee, before lunch haze. So hopefully I have your full attention right now ... *[continued](https://instagram.com/p/7swh5CmvPp/)*

HEY HARRY, I got another bride today, for June. She showed me her invitations. Two little swallows in the corner of manila cardstock, holding trumpets and greenery in their tiny beaks, proclaiming the wedding date proudly to all the guests. What’s so romantic about birds, Harry? Aren’t they harbingers of disease? Don’t they go to the bathroom on our heads? Is it because they fly around that people like them? ... *[continued](https://instagram.com/p/7-hqWoGvMQ/)*

HEY MATILDA, Speaking of, have you heard from dad lately? ... HEY HARRY, Oh yes, we had our quarterly email exchange about death and futility ...*[continued](https://instagram.com/p/76F1pZGvL0/)*

HEY HARRY, I don’t like this new feeling I’m having lately, the feeling of oldness. I know some day soon I’ll wake up and realize I’m absolutely irrelevant and it will be terrifying. Or maybe I’m there already, Harry ...*[continued](https://instagram.com/p/8JE7oEmvGk/)*

HEY MATILDA, Well done, that's a nice list. HEY HARRY, Thank you. You know I enjoy praise from the internet. Actually, I think I’ll purchase www.praisefromtheinternet.com, and each day put up an encouraging thought. ie: Good job! Keep going! DaVinci was under-recognized once too. You have exceptionally nice hair and teeth. ........ Wouldn’t that be good for the world, Harry? ... *[continued](https://instagram.com/p/73E50KmvGP/)*

HEY MATILDA, The date on this time travel article (which is old) is April 1st. So… I think your time traveler may be a hoax. HEY HARRY, Fuck. Everything is terrible ... *[continued](https://instagram.com/p/8V-U42GvIl/?taken-by=heyharryheymatilda)*

HEY HARRY, If I looked on the bright side, my thinking would go like this: It’s a good thing that I accidentally grabbed the laxatives instead of the Ibuprofen this morning, because now my system is cleaner than it has ever been at 10am on a Friday, and I can eat extra veggie burger because I’ve cleared room for it ... *[continued](https://instagram.com/p/7xoN-mGvIB/)*

HEY HARRY, Will that genetic test tell you if you (but mostly I) will die early of cancer? I maintain a lingering but not insignificant fear that I will succumb to Aunt Jean's touch-of-cancer. Or will it be Grandpa’s Alzheimer’s? I couldn't find my keys this morning.. I started my remembering mantra as I was leaving the house, but it failed me ... *[continued](https://instagram.com/p/8DtLBRGvFK//)*

HEY HARRY, PART II: The two girls we were working with in Martha's Vineyard had deep tans they slathered on from a pink bottle and really long, fake fingernails. They snuck boys into the dormer and rarely included me in their conversations. But if they had liked me I would have liked them ... *[continued](https://instagram.com/p/8OIHGQGvIv/)*

HEY HARRY, I just put 300 Christmas lights (so cheap off season!) on a tree that’s barely three feet high. If I look at it and then look away quickly, little dots swim across my field of vision. It’s pretty excellent ... *[continued](https://instagram.com/p/7p6bW9GvNn/)*
