I am looking forward to returning to this more than I have looked forward to anything in an exceedingly long time. 
Soon. But not soon enough.  

ὠς γὰρ ἔς σ’ ἴδω βρόχε’, ὤς με φώναί-
σ’ οὐδ’ ἒν ἔτ’ εἴκει, ἀλλά κὰμ μὲν γλῶσσα †ἔαγε†, λέπτον
δ’ αὔτικα χρῷ πῦρ ὐπαδεδρόμηκεν.

Missing it.

You should have read it already. It’s a spectacular and beautiful story. It does make you think, but not simply about politics. It’s also about the tenacity of the spirit of man and love and life and strength and defeat. 

If you so happen to be one of the thousands contributing to this book’s 6,000+% increase in sales, I suggest you add this little bit of literature to your summer reading entitled “Uniting (and) Strengthening America (by) Providing Appropriate Tools Required (to) Intercept (and) Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001.” 
Don’t try to drag my books into this whole political/media frenzy. This is nothing new guys.

Long summer afternoons. Windows open. Writing on good paper with a real pen. Time seems to slow down. Seldom am I willing to embrace this quiet, creeping pace.

123 places to visit

#123+: Rub’ al Khali, Saudi Arabia/Oman/United Arab Emirates/Yemen

I desperately yearn to visit the desolate and dangerous places of this world.
Theoretical Husband, be warned, I do not want a Caribbean spa honeymoon.
