Crowns of trees. Clouds. Moon. Sun. Cory Booker's poll numbers. Stars and Galaxies (though some of those are down and over, I admit). My word count on this story. My breakfast.

Always save the best for last, y'know.

Cosmos is the bomb. I've been watching the old Carl Sagan Cosmos series on Netflix. That man was a poet as well as a brilliant scientist.

His son's doing shows on the Science Channel, FWIW. Carl couldn't (and probably wouldn't want to) deny that boy. One look and we knew he was Carl's son. It was kinda cool.

Yeah, got it, thanks!

Before I could reply, my computer decided that Yahoo was a virus risk and won't let me back into my email. We're still fighting about that, but the bloody POS keeps winning.

Will figure it out somewhen. I'm just really annoyed with all things electronic lately.

If you have another email I can resend it to you anyway, it's in my sent box.

That sucks though.

I got the download, no problem. I was just going to comment back to the comments when things went south.

If you want to PM me those comments (because, honestly, I remember some, but don't remember if I remember them all), I can do that.

Thanks!

Nope. She's been skipping out on all kinds of things lately, it seems.

Housemate bought the domain name(s) for the new publishing company. Foo Bat Books (named after my Peke, FWIW). Now she's swearing at the page-building stuff.

Glad I'm going to work today.

Called my father to wish him a happy father's day. Made the mistake of answering his question about what's up. Started to tell him a little about the book covers and how the recovery from the knee surgery is going.

He seemed surprised to learn that I'm getting a book published. And that I had knee surgery. And yes, he's been told this before. The book part, many, many times. Even showed him the original cover from the old publisher.

Happy Father's day to me.
