Scratching

[pjthompson]

Random quote of the day:

“The novelist who refuses sentiment refuses the full spectrum of human behavior, and then he just dries up. Irony is always scratching your tired ass, whatever way you look at it, I would rather give full vent to all human loves and disappointments, and take a chance on being corny, than die a smartass.”

—Jim Harrison, Conversations With Jim Harrison, ed. Robert DeMott

lol... I'd scratch the tired ass on the pic. As for the writing, I think it's about finding the right balance. :)

Hope you're doing well.

I'm doing okay. Hope you're well.

[rimturse]

I am also okay. Although not quite ready for winter. :)

[pjthompson]

Ha! Your winter is very different from my winter. We've had horrible heat, so I can't wait for the colder weather. If there was danger of being snowed in I would probably feel much different. 😁

Heh, your winter might be my summer. We actually rarely get a lot of snow, just darkness, fog, winds, icy rain, and cold. Not even a winter wonderland to show for it.

If we're lucky we get rain (our rainy season is Nov-early March, not summer) and temps in the 40s but no frost here at the coast. That's inland. We do get fog, though.

Ah, your winter sounds like our early spring / late autumn... or maybe a mild winter. The temps today and tomorrow are around 36-51 Fahrenheit. We very rarely go without rain for long, which is great for the plants, of course.
