It was the middle of the day and the bar was dark when she decided to two-step with Black Bart.

Wandering the yard this morning, I found a colorful moth flitting near the hydrangea. My roommate thought it was a butterfly because it wasn’t grey. So I searched moths and this fuzzy wonder appeared: a Venezuelan poodle moth. Photo by Arthur Anker on Flickr.

My love walked down the mountain. He’s been gone too long. If he ain’t dead, he’s banged up, or in the arms of some high-heeled, briefcase-carryin’ citified floozy.
Blue sky lift me up
up to the heavens
so I can look down
and lay my eyes upon him

A fiddle tune sends me over the moon. Here’s a super-fun video set to a blues fiddle tune about an Irish gentleman farmer, Mr. Snotty, and impertinent scarecrows that give him a run. Strings beautifully arranged and played by Christopher Marion, pictured below.

Talking with my son tonight about entertaining topics for his vlog. We watched a bunch of the Your Grammar Sucks videos. He asked me what “twit” meant. We looked it up. There was twaddle, sitting under the synonym subhead. Twit…Twitter…Twitter Twaddle.

When I was in high school, I slept barracks-style with my three sisters in a large room with a concrete floor. There was a screened, floor-to-ceiling, doorway-sized opening at the head of my bed, about six inches from the edge of my mattress. No window glass or door, just a screen nailed to the frame. One morning I woke up to a cow chewing grass, about three feet from my head, on the other side of the screen. About ten feet behind him, there was a short rise that fell into a deep valley on the other side. The valley was lush with grass and cows. Now it’s nothing but condos.

I went to high school with surfers. Serious surfers. They got up really early to surf before school. In the dark.
