I read a comment somewhere to the effect of, "Lots of people are making some shocking discoveries today when they get to the 'later life' portion of Bardot's Wikipedia page... and that's because the French didn't constantly quote-tweet her for outrage bait, or put her in the spotlight as someone to hate. They just shunned her like she didn't exist. And it worked."

Coincidentally, that's the second super-old-used-car auction I've looked at in recent days. Jello Biafra, lead singer of the punk band Dead Kennedys, is selling his car and getting some publicity for it--and Minifobette is a big fan so I ended up hearing about it.

This Christmas season is almost as bad as Christmas 2020, to me. I keep trying to think more than 10 minutes into the future, and I just can't. All the future things feel simultaneously overwhelming and not real.

I saw a nice post online somewhere that said, basically, "When it happens, you won't actually hear immediately that it's happened. What you'll hear are people cheering, cars honking, unexplained jubilation--and then you'll realize why."

The guy's a hero, no doubt. But I question the purpose of preserving an old house he happened to live in once. I guess if other people find it inspiring, it could be worth it. There are certainly worse and more expensive boondoggles.

I now have a little (but keloid) scar in my navel from laproscopic surgery. It's not visible, but it annoys me far more than the visible scars I have elsewhere.

The motion generally starts counter-clockwise for a few turns, then goes clockwise for one turn, then two or three figure-eights through the middle. Then take it out and whack it on the edge of the container three times. (I sat here and did it with my hand in the air several times to be sure.)

Old  enough to still have most of my mind, and not be in daily pain. Whatever age that is.

Oh, I assure you there is. Upcoming empty nest + perimenopause + currently stifled writing projects have me pretty well fucked up.

I've just realized, from that last angle, how sharp the hill is. Or is that foreshortening, and there's a substantial flat bit between the house and the edge of the slope? Are you going to build steps, a driveway, etc.?

It's worth noting that while the Mystic girls are getting most of the coverage, several other small towns across the state have been completely wiped, death toll still to be determined.

A pair of siblings at our summer camp this week lost their grandmother in flooding less than 30 minutes outside Austin.
