We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

I am so sorry, sara. The stupidity of gun violence just... blargh. Senseless.

Sucking down my coffee and then off to walk thru that same neighborhood on the way to market. Have concluded not enough hours in this weekend.

I bet people who don't even know you will subconsciously appreciate seeing you going about your usual routine, sara.

This is me starting yard work while it's still cool. 4 minutes after sunrise. Weather.com assures me I have a few hours before it gets hot, let's see how much I can get done.

Eh, sadly in this city, going all about the usual is common and expected. The mayor will come out and speechify, police presence will be up for a bit (though just saw the usual patrol this morning) there'll be prayer vigils and it just keeps going on.

And now I gotta go fix that I'm about to run out of cat food.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Lousy, insomnia-riddled night with lots of time to ponder bad life choices and all that, as well as other questions not only do I not know the answer to, but don't know how to find the answer.

To wit: we call someone who is French-speaking a Francophone, right? Is there a word for someone who speaks Spanish (other than Spanish-speaker)? I've racked my brains, what's left of them, but nothing's jarred loose.

Google suggests Hispanophone.

A Cards Against Humanity game clone can now be played on-line. I would very very much be interested in playing with some Buffistas.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

That sounds like huge fun. I'd be up for it.

Cool! I have a ton of stuff to do today, but would people be interested in a game tomorrow afternoon or evening?
