My summer reading list includes Finnegans Wake, To the Lighthouse, Cruising Utopia, and several other books that can’t possibly exist.

US Envoys arrived today and are pleading with our leaders to refrain from imposing retaliatory tariffs. We initially denied their pleas until their ambassador returned wearing a suit and thanked us for existing.

No one in my life right now takes this role, which is a shame, because I’d love to say to somebody: “Wow, you sure can be a mother hen, when you’re concerned one of your ducklings has strayed too close to the hangman’s noose.”

One of those days. I shall now do the responsible thing and read Beckett in bed.

I like my coffee like… I like my sex: dark, roasty, and in a mug.

Today is officially Arthur’s birthday. When we brought him and his brother Alexander home, we calculated a likely birthdate based on size and weight. Arthur is 17 today.

Since it is Valentine’s Day, here is a picture of Valentine. As is obvious from this and the song, each day is Valentine’s day. Officially, sweet 16 today.

I don't want to see it every day. There's enough of it in a single day to tell me what I need to know for several weeks. Remember how much of this is bullshit, and how much of this is getting reversed by courts because it's illegal. Don't repeat it ad nauseam. It's terrorism.

It’s weird to feel a little healing happening for me. I’m grateful. I’m humbled. I want more from this experience, in very small bites. After all, I don’t really know what I’m doing.
