I"m doing pretty well, thanks! Just got home from attempting to shoot the new crescent moon.

Well. I probably should have waited till a later date. It's fuzzy and not at all the way it looked to my eyes!

Ah well. Live and learn!

Hope you're doing well tonight!

as we were bringing in the last few plastic bins. Mixed feelings about the move. I'm a bit further away from convenience stores and I'm no longer in flat territory so the bike rides will be more difficult climbing the hills. I'll also have to establish new connections so I can live up to the reputation that Towelie is supposed to have. That might be more difficult since the apartment complex is oriented to older clientele.

The good news is there are more opportunities here to work, the place is nicer, and I have more space and privacy. We also had the cable TV and Internet connected this evening which was a blessing since it looked like we would have to wait until September 9.

Cilla here.

Hate to harsh your mellow...but I'm starting to wonder and worry about holding onto hope and joy. At least unmedicated.

Odessa...gun insanity...Barrier Reef...climate collapse...sick immigrant children.

I love my country...

But we've become the Nazis.

And I'm Dietrich Bonhoeffer around here...

I make no secret of the fact that I'm a fair-weather fan.

If they're winning, great. If not, I find something else to do...

Another Super Bowl win would be a nice antidote to the shitstorm the world is in right now...

Went to see “Brittany Runs a Marathon” and really enjoyed it. Also thought the sportsmanship and class shown by Naomi Osaka towards young CoCo Gauff at the US Open was amazing. Don’t even know what to say about another mass shooting. Nothing will change. If nothing changed after 5 and 6 year olds were slaughtered, it never will.

Rolled my ragtop Miata.

I'm alive and not decapitated. Broke my hand and have a goose egg on my head. Lots of cuts and bruises, but I'm a lucky duck.

I hope you weekend is safe and happy my friend! I'm going to hibernate in bed with my laptop
