Emerson put me onto Stargate SG-1.

It’s so cheesy and so delightful.

I was so tired that I fell asleep without writing yesterday.

I confess that I’ve been holding out on y’all.

We got a new apartment and are moving in slowly but surely! It’s a helluva workout and very hard on both Emerson and I, but even the cats are more relaxed now.

Emerson and I saw the film Amadeus today at the Oriental Theater here in town.

It was honestly badass to watch it again with a great set of speakers on the big screen in such an awesome venue. 💛

A quotation from Emerson

We refuse sympathy and intimacy with people, as if we waited for some better sympathy and intimacy to come. But whence and when? To-morrow will be like to-day. Life wastes itself whilst we are preparing to live. Our friends and fellow-workers die off from us. Scarcely can we say we see new men, new women, approaching us. We are too old to regard fashion, too old to expect patronage of any greater or more powerful. Let us suck the sweetness of those affections and consuetudes that grow near us. These old shoes are easy to the feet.
