“The tendency to turn human judgments into divine commands makes religion one of the most dangerous forces in the world.”--Georgia Harkness

The phone that I washed, about a week ago, is working, again, tonight. Mind you, it is not working like a brand new phone, but it is working. Will it improve with age, from here on in, or get worse. Time will tell.

I made a new batch of chili, tonight. Upon first taste, when it was hot, I thought that I had finally failed to make a great batch of chili, but when it cooled down some, I found that I had a tasty treat on my tongue.

Up at 7:33am. Henry, once again, crawled onto the foot of my bed, and was my sleeping partner, last night. You have not lived until you have slept with a Great Dane! Kobain is adjusting nicely to home life. It is as if he doesn't even remember being a Huge Superstar for a couple of days. I'm going to see my young friend, Molly, play softball, today. I am really looking forward to that!

Tic tacs, and coffee, don't work all that well together.

I like to make circular coffee stains in the notebooks that I write poetry in with the bottom of my coffee cups.

Dunkin Donuts just sent me a coupon for a free coffee, which is nice. Why don't multi-billion dollar companies ever give anything back? Why do they just take, and take, take? Why does the butterfly whisper at night when nobody is listening?
