They announced a break for dinner at 6:30 if it was necessary. Moscow Mitch didn’t say how many hours in total.

As I learned to my continuing consternation when writing ovarian cancer research grants… ovaries belong to the state.

But not testicles.

It was one of the many reasons that drove me to retirement.

S’OK. He’s in the front yard under his cholla cactus where nobody can bug him. My goofing off will be in the back yard.

I have never seen a real road runner.

Does he get Acme deliveries? I assume they are now available through Amazon.

Dunno exactly, that image is from October 2019. I did see him this morning very early.

Some new renters have moved in across the street and they have several yapper little dogs. College kids next door have 2 young and inexperienced cats so there’s a lot of threat that’s out of my control around for that bird.

I have put off so many things by listening this week that I want to do. Need to buy a windshield wiper, gotta fight with the gas company over a bill that makes no sense (should do that today), want to get at least halfway through a simple weaving I started, laundry, read a book, trim around my dog’s face and paws and butt, make banana bread, visit a neighbor who’s been sick, and go through a pile of papers to shred or throw out. Not much time left to listen to stupid goobers on TV but we’ll see.

Eisenberg is the chief coverup lawyer, right? He’s the one that made the suggestion to put all tRump’s communications with various foreign leaders including the Ukrainian prez in that secret, decoder ring, electronic vault so the verbatim transcripts wouldn’t embarrass him.
