My name is David and I use he/him pronouns. If you tell me your pronouns then I will use them. If your pronouns change then I'll do my best to get them right; please correct me if I use the wrong ones so that I can correct my usage.

If we're still alive
My regrets are few
If my life is mine
What shouldn't I do?

How do people who've read the original like Sandman?

Because I came in with no knowledge and I'm loving it.

Today's song that doesn't exist but should: the Kate Bush cover of Massive Attack's "Teardrop"

Later summer mocktail: higball glass, 2 ice cubes, 2 shots tart cherry juice, 1 shot OJ, fill with Waterloo Passionfruit, garnish with an orange slice and serve.

(We normally drink wine but we've had 2 different friends over the past few days who don't drink alcohol)

Happy Birthday Smokey!

I could have done without the cat waking me up at 6AM

The last day of the art fair went from cold and rainy to hot and swampy

I think I'm finally dry from being out in the rain all day.

I know we need the rain but does it have to come on the weekend of the August art fair?

I think it's time to make breakfast burritos

We watched an episode of "Forged in Fire" today because I have an interest in learning bladesmithing and that's enough white male patriarchy to last me forever.

One of the few good things about having gotten our stuff out of storage in NC and driving it home was that I could bring my old daypack and puukko with me on Sunday's hike. It was like having 2 old friends with me.

Maybe the rain will clear away a little of the smoke

Be bear aware

I really do love my fiancée, but she has this issue of getting herself annoyed and frustrated because she wants to shop and cook like Ina Garten and we only have a small galley kitchen with an apartment-size refrigerator and no pantry space to speak of.

Driving across the country sucks
