First day back in the office since before Christmas. Was nice overall to see/interact with everyone but, wow. That took a lot of energy.

Oh, Rita Dove’s Incantation of the First Order is perfect for today. Hat tip to Matthew Ogle’s Pome for sending it to my inbox.
As seen on todays walk.
Note to self: do you care because you’re following them? Or are you following them because you care?

Watched They Call Me Magic (2022) 📺
As a kid I first started watching basketball in the mid-80s and the Lakers were my team. There was so much more to Magic than I knew about (then). A man of many chapters.
Beautiful morning for a walk.
It’s a good day for The Coathangers 🎵
Watched: American Murder: The Family Next Door 📺
Truly horrific. Note: I need a break from true crime media.
This week I'm grateful
Watched: Captive Audience : A Real American Horror Story (2022) 📺
I have a lot of mixed thoughts about the docuseries and the ever-growing true crime genre in general. An element, of this series, I didn’t like was that they had actors from the made for TV movie read lines from actual interviews. Unnecessary.
Happy Earth Day! The Greenest Phone Is the One You’ve Got
Continually hammering this message home (for myself) on everything I currently have, not just my phone and tech devices.
Finished reading: Fiona and Jane by Jean Chen Ho 📚
Beautifully written and well told story about friendships of varying levels (depth), challenges, and longevities.
A happy Meyer Lemon tree this spring! Glad I moved it to a better location.
Finished reading: LaserWriter II: A Novel by Tamara Shopsin 📚
I loved this “coming of age” vignette, full of nostalgia and focused on a tech repair shop. Even better when I learned that this is based on a real repair shop, and the impact it’s made to its community.
