Two's Day
I don't now what that means up there. Just seemed funny at the moment.
Spent part of the evening watching Today's Pick:
When it comes to Lennon, I'm a pushover, of course. Watching this brought me back in time to that December morning when I got up to get ready for school and turned on the radio like every morning, and they were playing "Imagine." I thought it was odd, even then, because Lennon had a new album out and they were playing the new songs these days. And when it was over, the announcer came on and told us he was dead.
I cried. I was 16. What can I say? And maybe you still wonder why I sign off the way I do?
Anyway, tonight, watching the scene after his death, when Central Park was filled by thousands of mourners and they were singing "All You Need is Love," well, I cried again. Sue me. I'm 44, four years older than he was when he died, and for a minute there I was 16 again.
You should see this film. You should get what he was really about.
Peace.

Back on Track
Monday Monday, can't stop that day.
Go here to view "Reset," a 3-minute short film I told you about a couple weeks back. Go here to vote for it in the international film contest where its creators have entered it.
Today's Pick:
The "Tales of the Nightside" novels by Simon R. Green. I just picked up the latest at the library, though I own most of the series. They're very good. Snarky private detective meets every weird thing imaginable (and many things unimaginable) in part of London where it's always 3 a.m. and gods, spirits, fallen angels and time travelers walk the streets.
Today's Word: AI, also AI, also AI
Peace.

Not yet home
A day of travel, of yard work, of visitation. A cemetery in the pouring rain. Back to the regular day-in day-out tomorrow.
See you then.
Peace.
See you then.
Peace.

Friday the 13th (again)
Just a short note, as I'm borrowing my mom's computer tonight. We're on our way to visit a relative who's in the hospital tomorrow, and mom's house is our stopover. I'll be back on the grid Sunday when I get home. Then I'll load you up on content, promise.
Till then.
Peace, love and pancakes.
Till then.

Checking in ...
... and checking out. Took an evening away from the ongoing plumbing project, but also took an evening away from everything else. Slept a while. About to sleep some more. We'll catch up with each other more tomorrow, and I'll bring the word, the pick, the story, and maybe some fun links too.
Peace.
Peace.

no end in sight
I'm tossing this out just to say I did, as the weekend from heck is lingering into my week. I spent all afternoon and evening working on the same bit of plumbing. I will be working on it again tomorrow unless we call a plumber. Til then, writing is a luxury I don't have time for.
Wish us all luck.
Peace.
Wish us all luck.
Peace.
