It's been a quiet day in South Woebegone, my home town. Dog and I went to thebeach and she galloped like the wind up and down, ducking and wrassling qwith other dogs, lunging into the surf and out again. She lost a ball, and got all blamey as though it was my fault I didn't have it. Can't win with them lady dogs, no-how. Got a tiny bit of writing done, not enough to pay for passage around the damn sun, though. I swan I am worthless. Maybe I'll just make music.
