dinner with an old friend

i drove into the hills in the late afternoon.

gray mist of rain cloaking the mountains beyond. and when i turned onto the dirt road the green of pastures a vivid distinction between earth and sky.

a moment of hello in the house.

into the garden. radishes bursting purple from the soil. cilantro in bloom inviting winged creatures to take care of the fruits and vegetables planted here.

we talked as we picked chard and radishes. stories of now and long ago. an ease lost amongst the distance of our friendship.

under the netting of the blueberries we ate more berries than we put in the plastic container.
we laughed and realized distance only makes the heart grow fonder.

holy fuck!!!

frustration and the internet are truly synonymous.
after much bullshit and rigamarole i am capable of posting here again.
damn.  you really got to want it bad.
it makes me feel as if i have no brain capacity at all.
but i figured it out.  i fell prey to the shenanigans and here i am.
writing for no one.  enjoy!

Recap. Synopsis. Window into life...

I have rhubarb tequila infusing in my pantry.  I have a yarrow waiting to be planted in the front garden.  I have dreams bigger than ever before and I have a hair appointment after I bust my ass at the gym.  I am planning on buying a seltzer maker this afternoon.  If I didn't know better one would think I had grown up.

not so good with passwords

because every damn thing requires one.
i just want to order a pair of shoes but i have to create an account and come up with a password.
then you change it cant remember the new one.  don't know the answer to your secret question.
who is my older brother?
god forbid if you changed your email account...
then you're fuct!
so...i struggle through with a variety of crutches and come up with a few variations and then....
i get hacked and my life turns upside down.
and really all i wanted was to buy a goddamn pair of shoes on line!
