PROGRAMMING NOTE from the Author and Archivist


So obviously I just stopped blogging on this platform. I'll get back to it eventually. Or not. I'm taking a break from all social media. It seemed necessary for my mental health.

The last few years have been busy and … challenging:

- 2015 Happened.
- 2016 Let's call it The Lost Year. (Obviously words failed me.)
- 2017 about broke me. Literally. Mentally.
- 2018 was ridiculous, proving 2017 was just a warm up. (Good thing I was already broken so it couldn't hurt as much.#2018TrashCanFire I thought things were going okay, but maybe not?)

- 2019 was such a blur. I know there were highlights, but then stuff happened and carried into the next year...

- And then in March#2020 really took a turn. Who can even categorize 2020? Do we dare?


I kinda want a do-over of some of the last few years. But life doesn’t work that way.


So for now, I'm hunkering down. Regrouping. Trying to stay safe and sort some stuff out.


Stay safe everyone. Stay well.

Random Comment and Best Wishes

"Those bastards! I hate them!! They SUCK!!"

This is my my friend Jenn's response to the cancellation of at least five of her favorite shows, most of them on what she's nicknaming the American Bastards Channel and the Co-Bastards Syndicate.

Now, to understand why this is so funny, you must understand. Jenn is a very polite, calm, even tempered, reserved, ladylike, "quiet and bookish," delightful person who rarely gets riled, and barely swears, even though she has had to put up with me since we met in 6th grade. I don't know whether to be shocked and appalled, worried about my influence, or say YOU GO GIRL!

Good luck today Jenn. Feel better soon.
