But the fools only look—they cannot listen for laughing
My poem "The Hero's Journey" has been accepted by Not One of Us. It's the incredibly depressed one about Dido in the underworld. I write this in a stupidly good mood, which I do not expect to break any time in the next few hours.
Why, yes, internet, I would love an episode of Gunsmoke starring Hans Conried. "Shakespeare," 23 August 1952. A strangely touching one, too, considering Conried's comparative careers in radio and film.
I wasn't looking for stereoscopic views of the Gloucester granite industry, but I'm not going to complain about finding them.
It's spring outside. I can't tell if this means next week it's going to snow.

Snow I can take or leave, but as long as it's not on a day when I have to drive in, I'll be fine with it.

Well, we seem to have wound up the day with catastrophic e-mail problems that are really, really freaking me out, but up till then it was great!

Well done on the sale!

I had heard very little Gunsmoke before this. I believe it was legendary.
Well done on the sale!
Thank you!

I was thinking only of the parallels to Conried, but you may be be right and it's more generally meta than I'd thought. (Partly because I don't know any of the other actors, I suspect.)

But! Congratulations on the poem. I always like seeing you in print.

Thank you! Likewise.

The underworld has sent up crocuses.

No; there are always crocuses this time of year. (Usually they freeze.) But it's nice.

Thank you for the stereopticon link. I'm a former Gloucester girl and enjoyed looking at the pictures.
no subject
You're welcome! Pleased to meet you.

I'm glad for the other good things as well. I hope it doesn't snow next week, although I have to say I'd not lay money on it not doing so.

And I'll certainly not complain about your sharing them. Some nice shots there. For some reason I'm fond of those little sailing cargo vessels that went on carrying goods up and down the coasts well after the triumph of the engine in so many other nautical rôles.
Happy Purim!

Thank you!

I'd guess yes. Meantime, my brain is alternating between "The weather is glorious!" and "CONGRATULATIONS YOU BROKE THE PLANET, RABBIT-PUNCHERS."

I think you should voice Nick from now on.

And the stereopticon slides are going to give me a headache.
. . . Sorry?
