When Tom of Tom & Jerry had "jangling nerves." He looked like he'd been electrocuted. And I began thinking I had jangling nerves because I was an anxious child.

I felt that way after watching Psycho...and I was an adult.

This happens to me a lot. I pinch or band something on my hand or arm while focusing on what I'm doing, and then I have the odd bruise, scrape, or cut that I notice later. You did a lot of carrying today, didn't you? I suspect it happened while you were focused on something else.

Honestly. Read the reviews of 's latest, Worry Box. It's basically taking the horror market by storm. Couldn't be more proud of my big brother. Get your copy & report back. Also--review it, request it at your library, etc. DO IT!!! This little sister energy brings the fury! 🔥🤣

If you want to see a whale….well, it wasn’t our day for spotting humpbacks…but we did get a gorgeous eyeful of the place we’re lucky to call home.

Anybody who would decide to close this museum does not have Philadelphia’s best interests at heart.

I’m anticipating a future where AI “pushes the button,” raids Fidelity, destroys Social Security records, shuts down the stock exchange, obliterates the grid…

ha! My great-niece just got an apartment in Wrigleyville. She's super excited to live there, when she's not in the air as a flight attendant. She just attended her first game as a "resident" with her roommate on Tuesday night.

Love the interplay between the photo and poem. It makes my heart happy.
