Good evening! I'll have an absinthe, thank you. Ice water, no sugar.

Where I live, we're finally getting some autumn weather, though we're not done with days over 80F for the year yet. And the trees don't change here, really, they just turn brown, though there are probably some colors less than a hundred miles away in the mountains.

I'm trying to shut the world out, too, and mostly trying to enjoy autumn, the one good season.

yea, I make a clear (mental/personal) distinction between "shutting off" and "shutting down". I avoid news all the time (except to watch the FB death spiral and the Twitter/Musk hell drama - I find entertainment there). I just read a lot of small blogs, and write a blog, and sometimes stop in at a forum throughout the day. Fall weather adds to the enjoyment of "personal" time. Best season.
