Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village, though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there's some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
-Robert Frost
Tell me about it, Robbo. I had an impossibly difficult time
getting my miles in tonight. But I did it.
I've pretty much checked out for
2011 so it exhausts me just knowing I have 6 more days of agenting, 2 as an
actress, 3 full of friend engagements, 15 to prove I'm a writer, 7 for which
I'll be a nomad, and 8 as a sister in residence on Elsworth this year.
Miles to go before I sleep is the prevailing theme, and I will run a
remarkable 72.5 more miles before ringing in 2012 and officially commencing the
countdown to Boston 2012.
