It’s not raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, but it plays.

If I only had skeletons..

I also wouldn’t be surprised if they waive the requirement. After all, that was stealing our tax dollars meant for health and wellness was all about.

ICE is struggling to get enough recruits. One of the primary reasons is their inability to pass the eight weeks of training, and in particular, the 1.5 mile run.
I’m guessing the vast majority of those military leaders administration insulted at their propaganda meeting recently could easily do it.

Even Disney knows that a strong but sensitive man, a vibrating wand, and open hearts can make a woman bubbly and bright.

Among other things that have kept me very busy these days and unable to write for now.

On their own, not so much. But when you crushed up and mixed into a chicken salad with red grapes, jalapeños and red onions? Totally awesome!

So long, dear friend.

I want to live in a world where the flags are lowered for Jane Goodall.

Kept it simple tonight with a grilled burger and some yuzu sake.

I had to force myself to do nothing for a while this morning. It took a while to tell myself that was OK, given everything that’s going on.

Moving is quite a bother.
Moving for the first time in 38 years is an adventure.

Certainly looks like he could be, judging by the poster.

I wonder is my (then) state of the art four function calculator from high school is in there.
That’s equivalent to $567 today (inflation adjusted). Of course, Moore’s Law would value it at less than a penny, but it was one shiny penny back then.

I imagine these unique shapes would keep most from sitting. A few might be compelled in other ways.

There are things that I’ve resigned myself to knowing I will never be able to do:
Properly fold the fitted sheet.
Successfully bake banana bread.
Fully overcome depression.
Write a full length novel.

But the things I can do are pretty damn awesome, & those in between are always worth striving for.

Remember “thoughts and prayers“?
These days, it’s “for the American people“.
They are destroying healthcare & human services “for the American people”.
Concreting over the Rose Garden “for the American people“.
Gutting part of the White House to create a lavish ballroom “for the American people“.
