Sunrise on the equinox. It should be due east and the road should head due east, so I’m not sure why the sun appears to be rising just slightly north of the yellow line.

I’ve been meaning to get this photo for years.

After several days when the weather was too crappy for either me or Ashley to want to take a long walk, it was slightly better today, and I managed to get the pupster out for a pretty long walk.

Ashley doesn’t indicate needing to go out by scratching at the door. Instead, she boops my laptop with her nose.

A trifle annoying, but today it got me out right on time to see the sunrise.

The equinox is about one week off, but already the sun is rising nearly due east. Ashley appreciates it too. #dogsofmastodon 🐕

Ashley is pretty good at fetch—better than any other dog I’ve ever had—but after taking a treat for dropping the ball, she is somewhat inclined to snatch the ball back up again.

My activity score of 100 due purely to walking the dog. Well, and sleeping better since getting a dog.

I am very impressed with myself: I walked far enough to get Ashley tired enough that she wanted to nap, without making myself too tired to make bread dough. #dogsofmastodon 🐕

Ashley does not understand that most dog owners are disinclined to bring their dog to the dog park in the rain, and is very disappointed to find no other dog to play with. 🐕 #dogsofmastodon

Among Ashley’s areas of special competence is finding her place in the sun.

That and chewing on sticks.

I write science fiction and fantasy stories.

I speak Esperanto, and use it to communicate internationally. Esperantistoj, legu mian esperantan hejmpaĝon.

For a while I taught Taiji.

For eleven years I was a senior writer at Wise Bread, writing about personal finance and frugality.

Before that I spent a quarter-century as a software engineer.

I'm creating an email newsletter for this blog. Subscribe here:
