I've noticed some reporting recently about cat calls, social media buzz word stuff. I haven't yet had a moment to click through and read any of what has been written, but intend to momentarily.

Will it go round in circles?
You remember that Billy Preston song, don't you? I don't think I've heard it or even thought of it in at least 20 years. Until about two weeks ago, that is.

This is not my usual attire, especially not during daylight hours, and I vacillated in a somewhat schizophrenic fashion between thinking I was fit and believing … Continue reading Tree hugging
