174

Cloudy at dawn. Then a more or less sunny day, until clouds arrived late. Our high was only 54˚F.

An anxious, depressed, and angry morning.

Ugh.

I got no work done today, not really, other than a few long overdue emails.

Lots of Poe, though: "The Cask of Amontillado," "The Fall of the House of Usher," "Ms. Found in a Bottle," and "The Masque of the Red Death."

I deeply desire to have been born in 1890. After many years contemplation, that is year I'd choose. Yes, I thought of that, and I took that into account. Yes, that, too.

Cause for celebration: My weight is up to 169.6lbs. It had dipped almost below 160lb (76.9kg), My weight before COVID-19 began, before the pandemic, was about 180. It's averaged 185-180 my whole adult life. But during the pandemic I began losing weight. I am hoping to be back to 175 soon.

This afternoon, a documentary about the sinking of the RMS Lusitania in 1915 and another about Heinrich Himmler's occult beliefs.

Tonight we'll finish Season Seven and our rewatch of Mad Men.

Spooky's gotten several new books and Sirenia Digest #203 up in the Dreaming Squid Sundries shop. It will be up for two weeks, and then it comes down. Non-subscribers can pick up this sample issue for the same price it costs subscribers.
