Good morning! Last Dusk After 7 PM 🌆 today! Four weeks to Halloween 🎃. Trick or meat 🍖? Maybe if it’s a cheese fondue like in thirteen weeks.🍲 2020 promises to be a super shitty year for our country regardless how it turns out. But the New Years Eve fondue is good regardless.🎉 Maybe I’ll be out camping, toasting away the second decade of the century.

After seven years, and two laptops, my carrying bag has fallen apart. 👜 I am going to have to look at replacing it. I really like my shoulder bag, and while I have this bag that John Wolcott gave me — officially an insulated grocery bag — it’s padded and solid enough to carry my laptop, at least with a few extra sheets of cardboard to give it a bit more stability. After vacation, though I want to get a big laptop bag again — so I can carry both my laptop 💻 and my lunch to work in one bag and be able to toss it over my shoulder for walking down to the library. I might try to fix the zipper 🤐 but the bag is getting pretty beat up, being used daily for transport down to the library and back and forth to work.
