I also made Kid 2's summer list. 2 is younger and not as much of a reader, so this list is shorter, more contemporary, and more fun.

Result! (I was just hoping for not-Stubb.)
Ishmael: If you are similiar to Ishmael you not only are verbose when you write, but are descriptive and oftentimes go off on tangents when you are speaking. You also are very observant, and don't really have many strong opinions and are fine sitting back and warching.

Oh wow I got followed by a definitely Real Man
The profile of a super real guy named Frank Scott. His bio reads "Am Frank Scott by name I work with the United States Army," his only post reads "I promise to protect life and property." It's all *very* convincing.

A small bouquet for Dave.
A posey of white bleeding hearts, white narcissi, and peachy green hellebores, held over a dirty potting bench.

Today in the garden I harvested some rhubarb and was back on my bullshit* again.

This parenthetical on a mainstream sports site feels meaningful to me.
Excerpt from an article about Bill Belichick and his girlfriend. She's very involved - in everything. From his coaching job at North Carolina to the program's negotiations with NFL Films about a Hard Knocks-style documentary/infomercial, she is taking a very active role. And exerting a very high degree of influence. If that's what Belichick what's to do, so be it. It's still a free country. (We think.) But it's unprecedented, for any high-level football coach, to have a family member/significant other who isn't employed by the program to be so intimately connected to it. And it's precisely the kind of thing that Belichick, in past years, would have mercilessly mocked.

First little harvest of the year.
Half a dozen asparagus spears, still dirty from the garden, on a potting bench that's also a little dirty.

Okay, stupid amounts of self-indulgence here but they looked so delicious and I love this dish and the heather.
Golden brown rolls in a painted ceramic dish, in which they fit so gd perfectly. A corrugated metal planter and felt bunny runner are also there and everything's on a wooden table

When I look at this, I am overwhelmed with happiness and confidence. It makes me feel powerful, and self-reliant, having grown all of these.
