So I am sitting at the airport waiting to board the first flight on my way to South Africa. I am going for a conference, but doing a short safari first.
I never would have imagined this when I was a kid growing up in Ohio. I mean, I never even saw the ocean until I was 21. ๐๐คทโโ๏ธ

Oh, I know. And that would be extremely problematic. Iโve been spraying things with bitter apple spray. It helps.

Baby fur almost gone, two baby teeth out already.
Approaching teenage status.
Hearing my husband say โGo for a walk?โ And then, when they come back โGood walk. Treat?โ
And itโs not Old Man Dog.
And Iโm crushed.
But the Little One is a joy. Which helps.
Hello peoples. I have been consumed with a loss and a subsequent new project. The loss isnโt over.
20.08.2025 22:44 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 3 ๐ 0You know, I really dig me some weirdo stuff. But even Dhalgren has something of a story.
21.07.2025 13:41 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I mean, is it just me? Iโve read Gene Wolfeโs books, Piranesi, The Locked Tomb series, - heck Iโve even read (some of) Dhalgren. I am good with weird ass shit.
But I need a story. Or at least a way to tie things together and Iโm just not seeing it, except themes of grief, work life balance, etc.
Severence is beautifully shot, extraordinarily well acted, and it effectively challenges the norms of storytelling.
But it matters that I donโt know what the fuck is going on. Ever.

Will expanding it bring you any degree of joy?

And I broke my glasses and had to drive six hours with them taped together. ๐
