Endless Ends

Just refer to me as: The Endless Who Came in From the Mud.


Which has the ring of a John le Carre novel. :p



(Apologies to the purists. No idea how to put the acute accent over the e. 🤷🏼‍♀️)
 
Now - de-mudded :p - I settle in to watch Lady in the Lake (1947).

Rather curious Philip Marlowe offering. Noted for its offbeat attempt at first-person narration through use of the camera as the protagonist's...eyes? View?

You only see Marlowe directly in a couple of mirror views or when he breaks the fourth wall.

No soundtrack either, at least, not in the usual way.
 
It's interesting how differently others see us than we see ourselves.

I dislike confrontation. I do it, but it's not my favorite thing, and it usually requires my reaching the anger stage.

As a result, I think of myself as something of a shrinking violet. However, a close friend says I have a scary temper, like restrained violence.

I suggested perhaps they were the only person that saw me that way.

They rolled their eyes.




People. Such confusing creatures.
 
. . . and the diffident meaning. That was a well-written peace.

Hi Beautiful! I hope you are are well :)

I too have gotten my mower stuck. The zero turns do not have much tread on their tires on purpose, but that can result in problems. I usually go and get my big tractor and a chain and pull it out.

Abs!!!! It's been forever.

I've become rather adept with scraps of wood, but, embarrassingly, I occasionally have to call in extra muscle.

That's because I lack a big tractor. :p
 
So, @AbsintheFather,

Do you garden? I have gardening questions.

You have property. In the city, you do it on a roof or a terrace. In the suburbs, the backyard. But more rurally, what do you do?

If I don’t corral the growing area somehow, the local animal population will wipe the space out. I don’t mind sharing, but….

What does one do? 🤷🏼‍♀️

PM sent :)
 
Thank you!

I want something like This, from Aussie's thread. Except larger with enough spaced for raised beds. Possibly not the most practical choice.

More question-y PM tomorrow.

I've had an alcoholic beverage. One. I need a night's sleep to recover. :p

Welp. That was interesting.

"You though no one would care about some nobody cook's daughter," has got to be the biggest throwaway line ever for:

-Sparking an intergalactic civil war
-Throwing an empire into decades of chaos
-Plotting a single-minded 20 year vengeance

I mean, well done. 😎
 
I like collective nouns.

(Pretty sure that's come up once or twice. :catgrin:)

A group of cats is a clowder.

Today, I learned that a group of cats leery with each other is called a glaring.

A Glaring of Cats.


I am...unreasonably charmed. :p

I need to update my vocabulary.

Autocorrect kept changing Leary to Leery. I googled. Turns out Leary is the version that hasn't seen widespread use in a 100 years. 🤣

That's me.
 
Lol. That sounds…..eek. Sorry, chica! At least you can come on here and click weird links that take your mind off of things. 😂
Lit perusal is the only thing keeping me sane. 😂


Honestly, it's like being held hostage. I'm usually so busy, but my productivity has declined. I've quit exercising.

ALL I DO IS THING ABOUT THE REHAB


(I think it's almost to the end, please, God. 🤣)
