Our wings are not tired.

At home for a week in Ft. Lauderdale. When I got up yesterday morning it was in the 30s and my neighbor was coming over to do laundry because his well was dry. Bad drought up there, hoping for some rain relief this week. When I arrived last night after 11 PM it was pouring rain and nearly 80. Ah, home sweet humid home.

Brendon has been busy the last month working on surprises for me including furniture and built-in construction stuff, as well as perfect balcony dining options. He also had vases of roses all over the place. I go north every summer, but this year he seems to miss me more than usual.

Hopefully while I am down here this week we can find some kind of an option for my son since he can't stay in either my place in Otter Lake, or here. In the meantime, I am relaxing.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

ABC/Disney caved to pressure and is putting Kimmel back on the air.

Such craven corporate behavior in all directions.

Always Anti-fascist!

12 years ago, I wasn't. Yeah, I'm pleased, I guess, but I wish it was like "We would never do that, ever," instead.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Awww, good work, Brendon!

ABC/Disney caved to pressure and is putting Kimmel back on the air.

When you piss off the Disney adults I guess you lose tons of money. Political regimes come and go (please go, current regime!), but a happy Disney adult is an investment that pays for decades.

Whoa, Monday is Deadsville here.

People must be working and shit.

Today's exciting mail, an art book I bought from Century Guild many months ago and forgot that I ordered. It is "an art nouveau bestiary by Anton Seder": [link]

The status is NOT quo.

If you've been following along since Emmett was in single digits and Matilda was an announcement in Beep Me, you are now encrusted with years like a ship desperately in need of dry dock.

Pardon me; I'm just going to sit over here and creak with the waves.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I desperately want to make a Ship of Theseus joke but I cannot brain enough right now, so please imagine a good one.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

People must be working and shit.

Tough jury day today. Sometimes it’s just a lot.

Catching up on 700+ emails from during my vacation today. Took a while.
