Happy 4th...Observed. No mail today, banks are closed, and some stores. Western NY is hot and humid today so of course I'll stay in the A/C and get some reading done.
Yesterday was a public holiday for me. I bought some new running/walking shoes and sat in a coffee shop, thinking, for a while. I listened to Mac Allan Collins's SKIM DEEP and enjoyed it a fair amount. I believe this is his first Nolan novel in several years. I've been watching Z NATION on Netflix and am on the 2nd season. I enjoy the show because it is easy to just watch without worrying about missing anything. I started watching Disney's MYSTERIOUS BENEDICT SOCIETY last week but have not gotten back to it. The set design is fantastic and I really enjoyed the series of novels.

You, too! (Your theoretical pets' least favorite annual day...exceeded in Hawaii by Chinese Calendar New Year, but only slightly...)
Same at you, Patti. Stay comfy and enjoy the day.
Have a greet day!
Hope you enjoyed the day!

Sorry not to see a "Still Here" or "Monday Monday" column.
