We’re at a wedding tonight…
…so here’s a cat.
Day Seven (the last day)
I’m going to stop counting the COVID days after today, because I think it’s pretty much done. I’m back to work Monday, so…yay. I have a bad feeling about what my Inbox is going to look like when I get back, … Continue reading
Writing and other pursuits….(day six)
As of this morning, I am pretty much completely symtom-free. Huzzah! Unfortunately, as of this morning, according to the test I took when I got up, I am not yet COVID-free. Boo! I assume this just means that my immune system … Continue reading

“And there was evening, and there was morning—the fifth day”

Mr. Carlin on germs and disease (play through headphones if you’re at work and you share a desk with some easily-offended Karen-type): Obviously I’m not in total agreement here, but it’s fun watching an artist at the top of his … Continue reading
Ginger root and citrus peel
The dialogue opening this scene from The West Wing (season one) has been on my mind today: I haven’t resorted yet to a strong shot of whiskey, but I’m not ruling it out, either. I have an unopened bottle of Scotch … Continue reading
The mood of the day…
…is this. And why is that the mood of the day? Because of this: I started feeling a bit of scratchiness in the back of my throat the other night, after we got home from the County Fair, but I didn’t think much … Continue reading




Of Elbows and Tables
“Don’t put your elbows on the table!” Anybody know where this shit came from? Because it’s dumb. Back in my college days, our musical groups all had their own odd quirks and traditions. One of the Wartburg Choir’s stranger ones (I … Continue reading →
