Something is down? Who cares, I have micro.blog for company.
My favorite knife is sharp. I carry it with me and use it almost every day. Mostly for the lunch avocado, yum.

Day 1 touch
We’re having outdoor theater tonight. I watch the AV guy touch the equipment. I’ve done a bunch of sound in my time. It’s fun to watch someone else set up.

Finished reading: The Paris Library: A Novel by Janet Skeslien Charles 📚I did not love it. While the setting, Paris during the German Occupation, was interesting, the book seemed more like a YA novel than a book for adults.

Finished reading: Solutions and Other Problems by Allie Brosh 📚A hard read. Allie’s had a tough hand dealt to her and she doesn’t hold back here in describing a lot of pain. While I wouldn’t call it a funny book, she is so aware of life’s absurdities that there are funny moments.
