Loose Leaf Notes

1. The boat we are all in is tipping. The billionaire’s hoard of money weighs too much.

2. Going down is the route up for me.

3. Pinned and pierced / Fear unmasked / The arrow’s tip / like a scalpel cuts / It opens the path / to a phantom bullet / and lifts the hurt / to new awareness – Read The Arrow in its entirety HERE.

4. I see the arrow as the GPS to the unconscious.

5. Dodge a bullet or dislodge a bullet?

6. It was a splurge that uplifted the winter doldrums and included one of my favorite desserts. See HERE.

7. I think doldrums should be spelled dulldrums.

8. New word learned this week: Vainglorious.  It means just what it says.

9. My home is not my castle; It more like my lab.

10. Death: returning my atoms to the universe

11. If I have to die I hope it’s by Cupid’s arrow / and that Mark Knopfler’s Golden Heart / is on the playlist – Read The Death Wish in its entirety HERE.

12. More from the beer glass photo shoot HERE.

13. ‘And how should we behave during this Apocalypse? We should be unusually kind to one another, certainly. But we should also stop being so serious. Jokes help a lot. And get a dog, if you don’t already have one.’ – Kurt Vonnegut – The Idea Killers, 1984.
