Today I picked an olive right from the tree in Italy!

...and found out that oil olives taste kinda nasty. But still! Experience!

Tomorrow, I fly to Italy to spend a week at a writing retreat in a thousand-year-old monastery! 
I... may be difficult to get ahold of.

One week since dog's surgery and she's doing great. Though I am still spending 90% of my time on the sofa with her. She's going to hate it when I leave for Italy Saturday.

Galactic Hellcats, by @reasie.bsky.social

Street thief Ki, unemployed army vet Margot & bored little rich kid Zuleikah get into, & out of, a number of life-&-limb situations, then kidnap Thane, the unhappy, gay crown prince of Ratana, a matriarchal dictatorship. He's pleased! Enormous fun!

dog must be picked up!
This is Fendi. He is seen here demonstrating the internationally acknowledged sign language for politely requesting uppies. 13/10 would pick him up immediately (TT: isthat_jojo)

Note to self: when re-gluing a fake nail, do not press with your lower lip.

I have nail glue on my lip.

I have rather impulsively bought false fingernails at Target and put them on. This is not helping my typing game.
But they are cute?

My doggie is doing so well now. There's a spring in her step. I am envious. I was not nearly so far along only four days after abdominal surgery!
