The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

The interview I did last month for one of my cancer support groups has been released. I put a link to the video in my profile.

Too many "ums" and "ahs," of course, but overall I think it went pretty well.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Happy Labor Day!

I hope you are all either soaking up the sun, or staying very cool as is your wont.

Matilda packed herself up and was picked up for an all day outing at the beach with her friend Iris's family. She wore my dad's old mailman shirt as beach cover and her special SF Giants/Hogwarts cap (in Ravenclaw colors and sigil). I also got to kiss Iris's dog Cupid, who we dogsat during the summer. A happy dog kissy reunion!

I did my morning run, and grabbed groceries and iced latte on the way back. JZ is editing in the garden apartment (which is cooler than the rest of the house).

I may be taking a book out into the garden to read it in the hammock. I may need a cold beverage to accompany.

Let's take a quick poll:

Cold Beverage With Shady Hammock Read: Y/N?

Cold Beverage of Choice: Beer / Wine / G&T / Iced Tea / Iced coffee / Thai Iced Coffee / Diet Coke

Yes, absolutely.

Cold Beverage of Choice: Beer / Wine / G&T / Iced Tea / Iced coffee / Thai Iced Coffee / Diet Coke
Depends on whether you want to just read, or fall asleep while reading.

I slept late, and am now catching up on some clerical things before I head over to Valley Fair to start tearing out the Monster Jam stuff at 8pm. So I am laboring on labor day.

The peril of being your own boss!

My laboring on Labor Day means laboring in my jammies. And getting stuff done that I can't do while my users are working.

Thrive to spite them

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

One vote for iced coffee over here.

It should have been! Arnold Palmers too!

I have responded to the heatwave by making a blackberry smash and opening my window to catch the evening breeze and playing music too loudly so that all of my neighborhood may benefit from my tasteful selections whether they want it or not.
