Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

msbelle, Calli, amyparker and your Jim, Suzi, I'm so sorry for your losses, and I'm sad there were so many people in that sentence.

But! Baby! Congrats on the new baby, Suzi!

My ankle is getting better, well it isn't but I'm able to walk better than I ever thought I would, thanks to a miracle-worker of a physical therapist I found through a friend. It still hurts and is stiff, but I have almost all mobility back. Working on strength and flexibility. I walked across my sloping uneven yard the other day and almost cried because I could.

I'm getting settled in to my new job, and just as I was bemoaning that I like it but I seriously need more money, a guy I used to edit for as a side gig emailed me and offered me a contract. His company pays quite well and the document he just gave me to edit is 700 pages, so that's gonna take care of the credit card debt I ran up while I was unemployed. Which is a huge relief.

And Trump and Miller have got corona, so 2020 isn't entirely bad.

That's some good news there, Zen. Truly.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I cling to stair railings after a few hard lessons. Like the time I tripped going down the stairs in my old house, managed to land on my tiptoes, and then fell forward. Amazingly, I didn't hurt myself that badly.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I am occasionally surprised that people don't have to watch every step they take and cling to railings. I have no idea what that is like. Which is not me looking for sympathy, it is just a completely different way of life that I don't completely understand.

I used to wear Dansko clogs all the time - loved them - but stepped wrong, fell out of them, and broke bones in my feet. Twice. Now I wear flats. But I still look longingly at new clogs on Zappos.

We lost our electricity for 3 hours tonight. It's finally back.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Are we W&P or just drinking and not mentioning anything that might or might not be on tv?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I'm not watching. ZERO ability to deal. I am about to go to bed.

I am watching. The look on Harris's face every time Pence speaks is quite entertaining.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I tried and quit in favor of marching bands. [link]
