"...threw my phone out into the Pacific, shot out my TV and bought some peaches." Haha! Yes. Some of us do have rich interior lives. I used to fantasize all the time about simply disappearing. I assume you have read "Ladder of Years" by Anne Tyler? The fantasy fueled my prose and poetry writing for quite some time. Nothing ever came from the fantasy or the writing.

Well.

You rest, woman. You deserve some damn rest.

I think it's great that you're resting, though you certainly put some writing effort into this post! Carl's eagle shot is terrific. I've never seen a Golden Eagle. Glad you got to escape for some walks on the beach, and thanks for the reading/viewing recommendations. I hadn't heard of any of those books/shows. I'm still enmeshed in my effort to read every Newbery winner, though I did read some novels I enjoyed -- David Leavitt's "Shelter in Place" and Mary Miller's "Last Days of California" among them.
