Continuing On

I think the sabbatical blog is finished. I have no desire to continue it. I have been way too busy to follow through with my idea about it. This short sabbatical ends this weekend, and very little of what I hoped to accomplish really was accomplished. But I used the time. Wasted little or none of it. Life simply presented me with inescapable alternatives.

Sunya's health continues to improve, and she's working harder every day, however much she has the energy for. She has more than enough work to do, is also managing the creation of her professional website, and is learning how to eat enough of the right foods (her long-term diagnosis is primary biliary cholangitis, with the additional ulcer, gallstones, and spinal pinched nerves more like temporary or manageable conditions). We were both all excited when this poster came out, with her billed right there with the FLG, who are some of the biggest celebrities of our world.

Others no slouch either

Yesterday I bounced about the City a little bit, though mostly hung out by myself at AT&T Park or Vesuvio's. I enjoyed the walking. Took a lot of pictures.

I know a lot about this guy

This weekend I go to a writers conference, which I haven't had a chance to generate much material for. I'll learn a lot, and it did get me to write more than I would have.

A character I wish I had more time for

Many of my friends will be going to the big bash our friend in Colfax throws a few times a year. A truly epic event it always is, but I was encouraged to decide that my writing needed more attention, and I've been glad I made the decision. There will be other parties, and maybe I'm done with that shit anyway. Here's a snapshot from the morning after last year.

Mrs. Bigglesworth tells me you have to leave
