Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Speaking of mothers, mine's entered the hospice stage of things. So there's that.

She's at the apartment and the home health people will be providing assistance. My hope is that we get a month or two, but who knows at this point. This year: not the best of them.

Always Anti-fascist!

Got some good news last night! Ellery Queen is going to buy the short-story version of "Wedded Twist" I'm not sure when it will come out and stuff--it's early going, but I hope to make more of this opportunity than the similar one I got in 2010. So I guess I can apply "If I'm so great, say Yes!" to my personal life for a while. Or my political persuasion efforts.
