Happy birthday, LTC. Laura, no, mourning isn't easy, but I wish I could be less stuck in feeling bad about stuff from decades ago.
Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

Sign of summer -- the cicadas are very loud this evening.
I love that sound. The nighttime summer soundtrack of my childhood was cicadas, bullfrogs in the creek, the a/c unit humming around the side of the house, the hum in a different key of the pool filter running, and (sometimes) a transistor radio playing late 70s/early 80s top 40 music (I’m particularly remembering “Bette Davis Eyes” for some reason).
