Lexember 8

Rolling on into the eighth day of Lexember, we open our eyes wide to see that the ConWorkShop theme for today is spheres. No matter how we turn it in our mind’s eye, it still casts a round shadow. Whether in our daily rounds, sophisticated circles, an ever-widening gyre, or up in orbit, spheres are essential to a well-rounded vocabulary.

Instead of contemplating an orb, today I decided to play ball.
