Really looking forward to the part where Debbie Harry "raps" about the man from Mars

The things you forgot about that have been in your parent's kitchen drawers for as long as you can remember

I'm not going to adopt another cat for a while, and certainly not before I'm relieved of the compulsion to name her Mrs. Catwallader.

LUCKY!

Visiting Mom (& her cat), continuing to watch classic things (for the first time fir me).

A few days ago I read Bolaño's AT NIGHT IN CHILE, in spite of my trepidation -- it's wonderful! -- but it was a borrowed 2nd-hand copy, annotated. The annotator, when the narrator mentions Robert Burton's ANATOMY OF MELANCHOLY, corrected "Robert" with "Richard", and I am still giggling.

Done! NORTHANGER ABBEY, next on the Reread Austen Project!

Really, waaay too soon.

The spontaneous joy, celebration and dancing that will burst out, and the stern reaction to shut it down

Found another one; decided it's good luck.

I'm doing a new professional thing at the moment, which is writing a letter of promotion. I owe this person a great deal, personally and professionally. It's an absolute pleasure to put it down in writing. Not just because of my admiration for my friend and colleague, but something else too.

More on the ideal worth remembering, aspiring to & fighting for:

The winner of this bracket goes up against Paul Simon + Carrie Fisher

“But my despair and yours, they are worth everything to Trump and so what can I do but disappoint him, to spite him. He needs our despairs and so I do not give mine, as this refusal, like my writing, is at least in my control. I hope you will do the same.“

"In addition I owe much to the faculty at large which, as with any university faculty, is likely to have someone who can be consulted with profit about almost anything in human history." (p xvi) An ideal worth remembering, aspiring to & fighting for.
