Today’s Incredible Thing, delivered by a very nice young man in a FedEx truck who assured me he’d taken very good care of it. This was made 10 years before I was born. (Sadly, “During the winter months we advise that you allow your shipment to acclimate to your home for 24 hours prior to opening…”)

Trying again to find the Things that bring me joy. It’s a hard time for me to find joy. The dark November of the soul. Counting the days til the light comes back…

Find the things. It’s a hard time. We have to find the things. For me today, it’s music, making a contribution to NPR, cleaning off my desk a bit, and more music. Find what you can to take heart from today…

How come they get the good stuff and we don’t? Health care for all (including covid vaccines), children attending school without active shooter drills, Dark Roast Crunchy Adams & brownie truffle Aero. No chaos; a leader with all his marbles, & a basically-functional government.

RIP Shadow, ?2013?—4/10/2025.
She was the Best Girl Ever. Always Here, a part of every domestic moment and a constant comfort and joy. I am gutted without her.
