There are certain parts of a gentleman . . . or a boy dog . . . that do not like to be dipped suddenly into cold water. You don’t need photoshop to get that expression.
I’m very interested in what people will think about Happy Hour In Hell. It was a fascinating, weird, fun (and occasionally extremely disturbing) book to write.

I really love you and I mean you
the star above you, crystal blue
Well, oh baby, my hairs on end about you…

Deb and I watched BRIGHT STAR last night, the Campion film about Keats and Fanny Brawne. We both really enjoyed it — I was surprised by how much it moved me. Very resonant with Deb and my own story, of course, thank God we had happier, healthier, luckier lives. Still, a very intense movie, but very much about small things and big feelings.
This, if it proves true as reported, is beyond cray-cray.

It’s too freakin’ hot. The cats are melting.
I wish I had more energy to write on Facebook, since it’s part of the hive mind of the human race, but it’s hard to find the git-up after a day of writing sometimes, to do more. (At least of the long, important sort that real bloggers do so much better than I do.)
It’s too bad, because the rest of the day I am quippy as hell. Honestly. So damn funny they had to change the local zoning laws.
I love Santa Cruz. Driving back, it was 104 degrees at the top of the hill, 81 by the time we got down to our place. Ah. Much better.

I’ve been listening to British skiffle music tonight, for no reason I could possibly articulate. I’ve decided that it’s a lot like gin. A reasonable dose is lovely. Too much and someone’s going to get hurt.

It’s my hooray picture. As in, “hooray, some horrible, bigoted laws got struck down, and that’s a hell of a lot better than what happened yesterday!”
