I heard from Lesso this morning and he is coming by tomorrow with a friend so we can sit here and sample seven different new flavors that he’s come up with. I have a feeling that I will be just ripe for the football game at 4 o’clock…. I gave him some girl crush seeds, which I’m looking forward to sampling. I can’t grow my flowers for what he gives them to me for so I might decide just to go ahead and pull the tent down… I picked up a book on poppies and have a bunch of seeds I got from bare frog many years ago and I’m gonna try my hand to poppies if the seeds are still viable.

-20 f. here this morning.

The -42 f. low has been rescheduled for Wednesday and/or Thursday night. Guess its calendar was too busy.

Now that the Nortriptyline is sufficiently out of my system, it may be an LSD day. I've been threatening for a good while but had to feel 'right' about it. And now the puppy has someone here to help tend to her.

I suspect puppies, like kids, get to feeling a bit uncertain and edgy when someone is in their presence and giggling for no real apparent reason. :)

Apologies to anyone who might've been offended by the hallucinogen references... The early 70s still lives on for some of us. One of the few effective antidotes for excess nonsense.

Read a scrawled bit of humorous wisdom on the planked slab-wood wall in the unisex restroom at Alice's Champagne Palace in Homer, Alaska in 1978 that read, "LSD consumes 250,000 times its own natural weight in excess reality."

Ended up writing that in black Sharpie on my electronic bullhorn that went to many a protest years ago.

Maybe a last dog pic for a brief while.

The pup below had begun her time with us as my older son's pup when he was 13, but when he moved out during his James Dean period of later adolescence, she got even closer to me, and we were best buddies.

She'd routinely meet me at the bottom of the main floor stairs and have some clothing item or another that she typically seemed to know was the very next item I was going to need, and when I'd reach for it, she'd abruptly turn her head away, preventing me from grabbing it. Daily morning games that brought smiles.

She'd wag so hard it looked like she was folding at her mid-section.

She was the first German shepherd we had that came literally pre-hardwired for everything from smoke in the house (broiling steaks, for example), to bedtime tuck-ins and checking on each person in their rooms, to security at the nearest point of entry, and even intervening in violence (whether play or real).

She passed away in our hallway at age 12, with us petting her into the next plain on my wife's and my 33rd wedding anniversary, June of 2022. She was a real gift to my life.

I have had good luck sprouting poppy seeds by putting them in a damp paper towel inside a sealed ziplock and putting the bag in the fridge for a couple of weeks. Half of them had cracked after the two weeks. So far, they all seem happy. The big one I popped around Thanksgiving time and it didn’t like the window light it was getting but is happier now under a T5. The smaller ones are a week or so from sprouting.

That's the place.

You could see through the planked slab wood on the restroom walls, and just like tracers, the assumption being that if you could see out, then they could see in.

A lesson in discarding modesty and adjusting one's ego. I mean, who would want to be identified as the person intentionally peeking -in- through the slab wood, with the restroom then located literally in the middle of the floor of the place? :)

I'd sometimes walk home stoned and otherwise buzzed, to out near the old FAA housing at the base of the Spit there, and encounter moose that had come down from the snow-crusted hills out East End Rd., from the freeze-thaw action up top, with the crust irritating their hide on their legs and ankles, and cautiously walk past them at the old NC Machinery location.

You might recall when the rednecks burned Alice's down toward the end of the 70s? The owners rebuilt, of course. Can't keep a good hippie down.

Haven't grown Papaver Somniferum in over 40 years now. Fun plants.
