 |   A terminal for all blogs coming in or going out. A view into my life. |
Started July 1st 2019 for contests, etc. as other blogs are filling up and have other purposes.  I'm starting a new blog because
I'll be linking to
I've started an appendix (I no longer have one personally) to keep track of my Space Cadet journals for Space Blog. It's a work constantly under construction. Mind the mess.
I needed to start a folder for contests as there are so many deadlines and details to remember.

| Evening. Pleasant temps. Clean air after the sprinkles earlier. I went to Best Buy and bought a computer. Not 100% thrilled but we'll see. Sitting here eating peanut butter m&ms because Target is next door to Best Buy. I took the bus there and back. Waiting for the #2 Bindweed blooms at the busstop, shy pink bell-blossoms twining among green twigs. They climb over sleepy bushes to greet us, we who wait for a ride having climbed the curb and planted our flag. © Copyright 2021 Kåre Enga [178.211] (20.agosto.2021) Earlier: Billie Jo gifted me a salmon dinner and Laxmi a chicken taco. This is NOT the way to lose weight. I'm tracking the hurricanes. No one seems to want to talk about covid... burnt out? Answer to QotD: "Yes, color can be used for communication. Ask any Sunday school teacher or prostitute. They are both acquainted with lust... and colors can be lusty. We English speakers think of blue; some of us think that it's just one color. Spanish speakers think of celeste and azul. Japanese too. It's interesting to talk to Persians over what is green or blue as we don't draw the line in the same places. Language is only one means of catagorizing the world around us. Many people are visual and color is essential to knowing whether something is ripe... or even poisonous. I grew up learning the big box of colors. My color vocabulary is more feminine than maculine and my color acuity is great. But my other senses are not as sharp and taste and sound are fading." AUGUST 21 "Depends on your intention. Autocrats crush. Parents, teachers, bullies... some crush. Is this bad? Probably for the person being crush while others applaud. Many identify only with winners. Consensus and agreement work better in most situations. Any relationship that must be sustained cannot survive without it: marriage, friendship, a republic." 37 AQI, 67 degrees at 2:15. Looking forward to more sprinkles. At Butterfly Herbs writing two postcards: Angelo and Norb. Bought orange honeydew melon, spinach pocket, 5 potatoes. Pisses me off: More than a few Americans fantasize about picking up their lives and moving to some seaside villa in a country where your rent is less than a car payment. It's a fantasy because while it might be affordable, few people actually end up doing it. There are things to consider other than rent when moving to a far-flung beach town. Stuff like "does anyone speak English?" Or "is the food edible?" Or "is there Wi-Fi?" Miss these answers and your turquoise-watered fantasy turns into an experience so stressful you end up back in America before getting your first sun burn. |
