The most successful tyranny is not the one that uses force to assure uniformity but the one that removes the awareness of other possibilities, that makes it seem inconceivable that other ways are viable, that removes the sense that there is an outside.

Stripping 50 years of paint off a steam pipe in the bathroom (it's been on the To Do list for 5 years but can only do it when the heating system in the building is off), sanding, cleaning, priming (2 coats), topcoats tomorrow. This is why the gods invented 3-day weekend.

Still wandering the eastern shore with the addition of lots of mosquito bites on my feet.

Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"

Took up running again after a loooong break. So, it was more like jogging and walking, jogging and walking. Felt good to blast tunes and expend some rage-horror.

Mostly gardening while impressing the neighbours with my collection of Dio-era Sabbath at Marshall stack volume, invited them around for a nice bottle of red or three afterwards as one of them loved Ronnie Dio too, now watching the Manca One Love gig on the Beeb.

Welcoming 2 kittens to my flat.
Well, right now they are a bit frightened. It's all new to them. They are very small (about 6 weeks old).Charlie wrote:Ooohhhh! Tell us more!Pista wrote:Welcoming 2 kittens to my flat.

... same as the other seven days of the past week ...
watering plants, sprinkling lawns, sweeping leaves, tending plants ... and the cat ...
and without access to phone or internet ... at least temperatures have decreased to below 30° C over the past three days ... *sigh.
It's over now. Resumée - recreation won't even start before at least a week far away from the standards ... ...
