The following was one of the few record albums my parents had when I was a kid:
"South of the Border" by Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass
And it's kind of funny, because I didn't find out until well into adulthood that the parents of several of my friends also had that album.
I remain intensely fond of it. 'Tis playing even as I type.
My garsh, the home internet has been for shit today....
Probably the most difficult aspects of smolnet for me is waiting: I want it all to happen so much more quickly.
But, of course, that happening meaningfully implies growing wherewithal/skills to take in, digest, and interact with more.
And wouldn't you know wherewithal/skills tend to wane with age?
I just so admire so many writers in the space, whether authoring posts or sometimes mostly "just" commenting.

Arrived at destination after about a two hour drive.
Paid the handyman for some fine work on the basement the last couple months.
Ate a banana, and a bunch of handfuls of peanut-butter-filled pretzel bites.
Bed time creeps thiswardly.
So much that seemed distinct increasingly winds up being fundamentally the same: representation, i.e. reflection, i.e. Mind Only.
I wish more Geminauts did more linking to others' posts.
I've been sadly remiss, come to think of it.
