Sorry about the window, David. But glad there wasn't further damage. Wishing you and SF an easy time with the oncoming storms.
Also good wishes to Sheryl and family and Askye and her family. And anybody else who needs health-ma.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

askye, I have a full box of paper masks that I bought in the beginning of the pandemic. If you can use them, happy to pop them in the mail.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Thrive to spite them
Vortex that would be awesome.
David I hope that the broken window is the extent of the storm damage for yall with all this weather.
I haven't felt great the past few days. Not sick feeling just blah....possibly just pms.

Just had some rare thunder and lightning in SF.
I vividly remember the first time I saw fireflies (Lincoln, NE, 1988) and the first enormous thunder and lightening storm I experienced (Post Peace March where we got ALL the weather) in Rockville a few months after I left San Diego. I never knew such things existed growing up within visual distance of the Bay Bridge.
Best of luck to all, in every category! Weather, ~ma, healing, growth, etc.

He was supportive and it went well, and it makes me think things may be looking good for the move, since he was the one to bring it up.
That bodes well.
I hope your mom is doing OK, askye. And I’m sorry about your window, David, though if it had to happen, better that one than one of the curved ones, I guess? Cold comfort.
I am having trouble buckling down to work today -- though I did a solid mornin of planning, which did need to be done but is also a form of not actually doing the things. OK. So. I'll commit here to two hours of work with at least two finished documents (they're short) at the end. Deal, self? Deal.

I'm waiting on an article to edit, so I put laundry in and made some cornbread to go with chili for dinner tonight, and now I'm about to do some yoga. If I don't have an article after that, I seriously might take a nap.

That all sounds delightful, except for the waiting for the article part. Good use of waiting time, though... gold star!

I have yoga-ed and put the towels in the dryer and taken trash and recyclables out to the bins. Still no article. But now I'm too awake for a nap.

There’s a nice tribute to Kate P’s mom in the January 2 Publishers Weekly that just made it across my desk.
