For National Lobster Day, I remembered to wear my crawfish bow tie. ‘Cause I have no lobster ties.

Tuesday, September 25

September 25, 2018

1) This morning I a) got a reply tweet from the author whose book I reviewed yesterday for Etiquetteer, b) set off the smoke detector while I was in the shower - for the second time, and c) accidentally ripped out the crotch of my khakis while I was putting on my shoes.

1a) One thing I don’t need in my wardrobe is khaki Daisy Dukes.

2) Look soon for an announcement about Repeal Day. That’s just one of the irons in today’s fire.

3) Unaccountable feelings of optimism right now. I really can’t explain it.
