I am thematically challenged today. Those who know me well would say that is nothing new. Sometimes I turn floundering into an art form.
I have to thank Ek for putting excerpts of Cyrano in Hollow Stars Gazette. It has reminded that it is time to re-read Anna Karenina. Every few years I crack it open and the interesting part is that at different points in my life I have either identified or embraced certain characters in the book. After that I will crack open the Brothers Karamazov. I seriously regret not taking a Russian lit course in college.
I really enjoy doing the “mini quizzes” at Mental Floss they are short, don’t test for anything substantive and make me think my brain hasn’t calcified. Really, it has.
Hmmmm…. Squirrels….
Hmmmm… Adulthood…
Don’t rec pony part but hang out and chit chat and then go see the other excellent offerings here.

Sleeting a bit in TN but it is supposed to warm up.
I’ll be gone for about a month while the big move happens. Occasionally you may see me in here but the closing on the farm got pushed up a bit, which means I have some water tests, radon tests, surveying, etc. to get done.
I’ll do my best to post the Monday Morning News Drop, however I looked around on Friday for something worthy of a Monday Drop and didn’t find anything very impressive. Probably due to the Holiday.
Peace
I am doing that right now….
Standing rib roast with a garlic blue cheese sauce, mustard roasted potatoes, green beens with bacon and JUST IN CASE I screw up which, I have before….multiple bottle of wine.
