Piddlin'

It is raining.  All the trees are cloaked with ice.  A bitter cold day meant for soft house shoes, hot coffee, good books, warm lovers and piddlin’.  I have a Chinese student in my freshman 3-D class who used that word in response to my question, “what is your studio good for?”  In four weeks she has learned one of the great southern words for being.

I have been admiring for weeks.
