hi ~bartender. Hot espresso here.

::glares at clock:

ffs 10:42, I thought it'd be later. With it nearing 60F outside,
and it being 52 this AM, I got no room to complain. The far edge of
the Web and life seem quaint tonight - a night of "ok". Espresso
hot and tasty, a decent day and a (hopefully) decent one tomorrow,
as well. Cardinals game w/ the Clubhouse tomorrow, which means a
slow day AT the Clubhouse, where I will hold down the fort in
Farmington, while the majority make the polluted and hectic trip
to/from St Louis.

With my face rolled over with steam from the mug, I unlooking pet
Smudge - purrs and contentment as a small, fresh breeze creeps in
through the window adjacent the bar's end. Air cooling, increasing
mug steam, distant dogs in the distance and faded honk of a "Main
Web" horn trailing far beyond. Me and Smudge seem unalarmed,
uninterested.

My RSS feed, Feedbin, is slow these days, too. 40+ Mastodon
accounts, mostly oldbytes.space and FOSStodon, of mostly
retrocomputing-oriented content, falls silent as the projects and
postings have settled down greatly in the past year. New servers? A
likely case. I would have to investigate. And so I shall go through
and see who stays, who goes. And then add some along the way.

I'll be here, with the flickering Moto in the dim Midnight light,
procuring feeds and ingesting caffeine - cats purrs filling the
room, a quiet growing more quiet as the evening settles in
