I have finally returned to writing about my cruise adventure. I have almost completed the celebration of my 72nd birthday; I'm still finishing up my birthday fundraiser because nothing says "It's my birthday" like hitting up all your friends, and your 5000 Facebook friends, and your hundreds of FB "followers" like for donations to the ACLU, right?

Logic chain: I want help restoring the biosphere, which requires stopping our corporate masters from taking profit at the expense of life on the planet. In order to stop the corporations from amoral mindless looting, we must change the laws. In order to change the laws, we must change the legislators. In order to change the legislators, we must vote in our own self-interest and marginalized groups must vote. In order for everyone to vote, we must secure access to the ballot. That's where the ACLU comes in - it is one of the top voting rights groups in the country and it uses LAWYERS ON VOTING DAY to accomplish this.

I had a lovely birthday visiting the elder of my two daughters in Virginia, where a gorgeous bouquet of roses and box of fancy French macarons awaited me, a gift from the younger of my two daughters and her wife. We even got to play a version of Cards for Humanity (Sherlock, Dr. Who, Stranger Things Version) with Rocky and her significant other. Good times.

So now I'm back to ordinary life, back to Quiet Time Oatmeal and writing up stories to amuse, confuse, and bam-booze-le. er something.

Hey Shelley,

Lovin' your sea saga. I want more fights! I really enjoyed the dust-up over the lounge chair. You have a captivating style, very attentive to dear reader, a style so involving that I started to feel a twinge of nausea myself while reading about your sea sickness, and imagining your tennis bracelet on my arm. I can't wait to read further!

    Write something about yourself. No need to be fancy, just an overview.
