Mid-morning. Up earlier with the usual fits and starts of a cold and chilly Monday. Email to check then a sobering wakeful bath to annoy the physics of the body into some sort of stimulation for marching on through the day.
It is not that bad, Amorella.
The lines fit your thoughts at present. Perhaps the several slices of banana nut bread left over from Bob Evans yesterday was not such a good idea for a breakfast. Carry on. Later, dude. – Amorella.
While in the tub you had a pencil and paper beside you as always as you never know when an idea (good or bad) might pop up and be usable or lead to something useable. The only thing that popped into your head was that you already have photos of a mind model, created several years ago. Let’s look in WD external drive for a good one.
Three photos give a good sense of ‘your’ mind in any case. Put them in and I will give a usable context for each as being aspects of mind.
A summary: your conscious self is the small blue tube in the North Room most immediate. The outer sides of the room walls are black or white. The graph walls within are for measurement of observations of the present physical world/universe. The East Room with its outer wall ovens in orange is the communications room where people have a meeting of minds from time to time. The individual may meet herorhis own mind or have a discussion of higher merit or principle with someone else. In the West Room of the mind the outer red wall is where the old ideas find a way of breaking down so that new ones may raise their ‘aromas’ into the room. This is the room of thesis and antithesis. This is the room of creating an existential choice by which to abide to higher principles, the place in the mind where decisions of commitment are laid out and built upon In the photo directly behind the individual in the innermost corner of the north room is the South Room. Its outer corner is pointing due south as a compass would have it. The outer blue walls represent the “out of the blue” ideas or concepts that hit the mind like a bolt of lightning, a eureka moment or an epiphany, a perception of essential meaning as. This blue room is the metaphysical room of the mind and it contains all the references and concepts of metaphysical and/or spiritual references. (See 30 August 2009 posting for added info)

The above mind model: on the left is the unconsciousness with three levels: yellow, green and blue. The blue tube covers the area of the three levels. The white circle is the entrance into the unconscious. On the right (next door, so to speak) is the inner sanctum. This is the mind where ‘you’ meet ‘me’. The floor is loosely woven, the orange flames in the fireplace represent the soul, the fireplace represents the heart. The empty bookshelves line both sides of the room. What cannot be seen here is the slight ‘crack’ between the wall to the left of the fireplace and the floor. It is through this ‘crack’ that you and I can meet the Dead. The rough edges of the model photos are kept because I want them kept. People looking for perfection will not find it in this working blog. People looking for perfection are arrogant beyond belief, that’s my opinion. You can and do have your own, just like orndorff. – Amorella.

This sketch above has been shown before, but in this context it can represent the meeting place of orndorff’s mind – the surrealistic place where he meets with me, Amorella. The mind’s view of the Inner Sanctum if you will. What is what, he does not know in this context, but the sketch says all that can be said. Elsewhere in the journal (27 October 2009) is another more detached and detailed explanation. - Amorella.

The above helps me clarify the mind-image, but still I do not see an architectural image befitting and complimenting the cathedrals and schoolhouse.
Clarity is an important aspect, orndorff. The above are reminders of what popped into your mind while in the tub. More on this later. Post. – Amorella.
Late lunch at Panera/Chipotle then into Kenwood’s Casual Male (Big & Tall) for a new swimsuit and summer shirt, and a stop at Macy’s for Carol before heading home.
I cannot think of an image except perhaps the Smithsonian Castle. I love the Smithsonian and what it stands for. Open doors and free to the public. Perhaps this is too arrogant, but then perhaps not. That’s what just jumped into my mind in any case.
The Smithsonian takes in the Mall. This was also a setting in Braided Dreams. Certainly within context of the Merlyn’s Mind series the Castle is appropriate as an architectural representation of your mind as far as I am concerned. I draw from these aspects of your mind from time to time. When home you can look for an image for my approval (in context).

Smithsonian Institution is a federally chartered nonprofit organization of scientific, educational, and cultural interests headquartered in Washington, D.C. James Smithson, a British scientist, left his fortune to the United States in 1829 to found an establishment for the "increase and diffusion of knowledge among men." The United States Congress established the Smithsonian in 1846.
Museums. The Smithsonian operates numerous museums. Many of these museums display artworks. Others feature exhibits on American history, natural history, aeronautics and space exploration, or science and technology.
The Smithsonian American Art Museum surveys American art from colonial times to today. The museum's Renwick Gallery features American crafts and decorative arts from the 1800's to the 2000's. The National Portrait Gallery exhibits likenesses of people who have contributed significantly to U.S. history, development, and culture. The Freer Gallery of Art displays masterpieces of Near and Far Eastern art, early Christian manuscripts, and a collection of works by the American painter James McNeill Whistler. The Arthur M. Sackler Gallery houses Asian and Near Eastern art.
The Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden emphasizes modern painting and sculpture. The National Museum of African Art exhibits ancient and contemporary arts of Africa. The Anacostia Community Museum is devoted to African American history and culture. The National Museum of the American Indian houses exhibits on ancient and modern Native American life.
The National Museum of Natural History has exhibits and conducts research on biology, human cultures, mineral sciences, and taxonomy (the scientific classification of living things). The National Museum of American History houses collections representing American cultural, civil, and military history, as well as scientific and technological advances. The National Air and Space Museum records aviation and space flight developments.

This is rather exciting. Over the years I have visited and enjoyed many of the details of the museums on or near the Mall. I was six when I first visited Washington. Truman was President. Then in my twenties when LBJ was President and Carol was living a little south of Alexandria, Virginia I was a regular on the mall from 1966-1970 when I wandered through the Smithsonian whenever we were in town. And it was even easier when her parents lived in an apartment in Crystal City (1972-1976) until Dad H. retired to Sun City, Florida.
Lots of photos online but as this one is an historical half frame; we'll go with this – an outside representative mind image in this case. The words in blog postings and the Merlyn books are the inside. All for tonight, old man. Post. – Amorella.
