Wave Without A Shore

…there’ll be something in February, we’re pretty sure. Jane’s getting a book ready; Lynn is; I’m writing a short story, which should be done soon. We’ll tell you when. We had a nice letter from Bookplace Cafe, and they sent us a nice congratulations on CC, which I’ve posted over there, along with a link, [...]

OSG says don’t trust February, but it’s been generally trending warmer. Mmm. We have seen fishes: Ari and Maddy, Ishida, maybe Grant, and a couple of the orange ones, which we can’t see well enough. We have 11 of them, and they shift about a bit. But they’re staying under cover, near their bottom heater. [...]

because we went out to go skating and the car wouldn’t start. We already knew Jane’s car had a dead battery, because we’d tried to jump it a couple of weeks ago. Plus it has an air intake breakage. Then we noticed the Forester tire is flat again. Sigh. So we called AAA. But no, [...]

She thought it should look a bit more like CC. Plus be clearer on the fact it’s a website. And it looks good.

And Jane has given me a one dime advance on a story. I’ve been very oddly stymied during Nationals. I never have trouble writing. But I’d just finished a book, and Nationals happened, major distraction, and for once, I just couldn’t get my head together. I’d decided to write a story, shortish, just for CC, [...]

Spokane bids farewell to the Nationals crowd with a pretty snowfall this morning: it’s been mostly dry, even up to 50 this week; and the day they leave, a dusting of snow. I think it will warm up to a drizzle, but it was slickerly out there on the road curve this morning, and the [...]

We’re not attending the exhibition. There are some skaters we’d like to see, but it’s pricey, not included in our ticket package, and we are exhausted, but happy with the experience. You’ll know by now that Sasha didn’t do as well as she wanted. She didn’t complain, but there was something peculiar in the way [...]

Hopefully the reinflated tire will hold up. I’m going to see what I need to do about it next week, plus check the car out mechanically, just in case. Time for its checkup, as is. We also just heard from Joan, who’s just returned from a second round of surgery, this one successful: she’s feeling [...]

Home. Got to the arena and discovered I had a half-flat tire. I had had a reader call me yesterday and ask me to sign some books before the evening program tonight. I’d gone home not feeling well—I think it’s the Zamboni fumes in the underventilated arena. But I was to come back tonight, sign the [...]
