nutter butters

updates:
  • no longer on a boat with jesus. the boat is empty. cannot configure where boat is. where i am.
  • thinking about submitting some things for some things.
  • step class is fun. knee pain needs to be avoided. still athletic fixes: advil, bag of frozen rice.
  • i love birds: coots, jays, egrets, cormorants, geese, pelicans, more coots, gulls, le canard, hawks, starlings, black phoebe flycatchers, grackles, and blackbirds. all lovely and observed from BalboaLake in Encino. Thanks Callie!
  • to dos outdoors: raft kern river, kayak santa barbara, kite fly, hike, escape country
  • reading at a snails pace: galileo's daughter, bird by bird (lamot), have his carcase (sayers)
  • things purchased: flash cards, book called: Lamb by Moore
  • things watched: Mr.Brooks
  • things thought about: friends who stay in miserable abusive situations and cause my chest to hurt. friends who are too critical of themselves and thus whatever situation they're in and whomever they're with. people who don't communicate. people who don't open and sort their mail right away. 1. switch to paperless billing. 2. recycle junk 3. cash checks from superior court for bail amounts returned... brother is having: girl. my love of flipflops. how much i miss my garden.
  • things to put away: french hmwrk, china, dishes.
  • regretting: the fading sun, lack of rain, dirty car interior.

"...thought about: friends who stay in miserable abusive situations and cause my chest to hurt."

yes it is wrong pen. you must hate birds bcs you don't understand them. they're AWESOME. and very important for a healthy ecosystem.

Without abusive situations, I'd have no situations at all. But I know what you mean.

I recommend ibuprofen gel - rub it right on the parts that ache. It's available at any British druggist (I get a friend to being it over).

I am glad that no birds pooped on us though. And sad that there was no wind for kite flying.

The tiny apples from your tree are delicious.

The mail pile is still taking over the sideboard...though I don't think it's oozed back onto the table yet.

well duh, about the ecosystem. i don't like squirrels, either. rats with bushy tails.

Squirrels have better press agents than rats and they have those very cute fluffy tails.
