my pup on our 4-6 mile jaunts, but not lately. Between Afghanistan, the earthquake in Haiti (followed soon by tropical storm/hurricane), COVID-19 anti-vax idiocy and overwhelming surging, wildfires throughout the west, horrific air quality and extreme drought for the future, anything and everything coming out of the Trumpists and Congressional RW, my intense fear of failure to address voting rights in Congress, possible recall of Newsome, handing CA to a Trumpist idiot.. and on and on and on.

I just can't take it day in and day out. Music and old Doc Martin episodes for me right now. Or some carefully chosen podcasts.

reading my Kindle mysteries and watching Trollhunters on Netflix
