We read it all in your Tarot cards

[sovay]

This afternoon while Autolycus had his check-up, I discovered that the old factory siding of the former H.P. Hood Plant has dramatically overgrown, to the point that I could not see the rails through the chain-link and the ragweed.



I don't feel very much like a person these days, just legible as the remains of one.

I appreciate even the thought of tuna!

It makes for rather a nice corner!

It makes for rather a nice corner!

It belongs to a business park that used to be an industrial plant and parts of it are decayingly photogenic.

decayingly photogenic is the watchword for much of our infrastructure. I spend hours a day zooming on one of my town's many bike paths, which is the best possible successor for the shockingly terrible train infrastructure.

I flip-flop in re: personhood. Sometimes it's all about me, and sometimes it's about the outside readers. Based on what I read here, you're thoughtful and eloquent and operating at the speed of 14th century life. Same speed as myself.

I am glad you have them! Our local bikeway was also built out of derelict rights of way when I was in middle and high school.

I think I can gear up decently into the early nineteenth century. Would have said it was at least a century later until the last decade, though.

Every decade pushes me back another century. I've now graduated to the typical indignities of age, like arthritic fingers and inability to remember anything without writing it down. (Here's to a warm companion animal in one's lap — my girl doesn't mind my cold gingers in her hot armpits.)

Looks like the sea moving in!

Looks like the sea moving in!

It does! With whitecaps.

How is Autolycus? (How did the checkup go?)

Hoping for a sense of increased--but positive--personhood for you any minute now.

ETA: positive in the sense that I hope the person-ness is a positive experience. ... NOT requiring you to slap a happy face on or evince positiveness in the Long Hard Slog of Current Life.

How is Autolycus? (How did the checkup go?)

We are monitoring some of his numbers, but interpersonally he is purry, salty, and has achieved the long-coveted weight of four-kilogram kitten, so that now we can work on getting him up to five. He lost a lot of weight when he became ill. He has been eating heroically. Now that the weather has turned, he is spending a portion of the nights curled up aginst my back.

Hoping for a sense of increased--but positive--personhood for you any minute now.

Thank you. I think some things would really have to change.
