9590 - Writer's Block: Open Arms

[Error: unknown template qotd] Yes, I last hugged a stranger... at the end of Fight Club, at the movie theater. I held out my arms, and they moved in for the hug, so it was not a surprise. ( I do have a build not unlike Meat Loaf / Bob)

That's one of the things I miss about hanging out with the wonderful hippie gang in South Florida - Hugs were plentiful, warm, and never forced both with new friends and old.

9591 - Thursday

BHK brought the element in for an alignment at the dealer today. Mechanical issue, it turns out. Insurance should cover it, but it has to be looked over first.

The moon was orbiting pretty close tonight, I nearly banged my head on it. My gut is still out of whack - I may have to go to the doctor tomorrow if this keeps up. Cereal and Milk for dinner - that should soothe a bit.

Pye, birdwatching this morning, as we left the house.


Self-portrait taken at midday today, with a tiny self-portrait inside the phone.
I think I look odd here - overhead lights, I guess. I've lost a little weight, but still working on it.
Note the dueling scar just between cheekbone and beard.


I have an irrational fear of post-getting a tattoo - I figure that as soon as I get one, I'll accidentally scar my body in a way as to make the design appear torn or crooked.

That said, I don't know what sort of tattoo I'd ever get.
