A personal high holy day for me.
I think I got deeply into the spirit last night dressed up as Frida.
It is a thoughtful day, remembering my loved ones who have moved on to the next journey.
I’m in a hotel room in Hawaii, so hard to celebrate properly, but I’ll make do.
I’m working on a make-shift ofrenda. If it comes out I’ll post a photo.
Mostly, just a reminder to remember those closest to you, both here and beyond.
Who the heck is this Dow Jones fella and why does he keep taking all my money?
Tony Hillerman passed on Sunday.
A good man, a good New Mexican and a terrific crafter of stories leaves behind a profound body of work.
He will be missed.

You were a gentleman and a humanitarian.
Since I dropped out of the world yesterday (see post below), let’s see what’s going on in my little world today so I can get caught up. Yep, let’s go to the news.
Stock are down…blah, blah, blah
Government bail out…blah blah
Obama struggling to maintain lead in key states. Sure, yeah, ok.
Palin ain’t talking to the press. boooring
Tainted milk in China. : brr : scary.
David Blaine hanging upside down for a real long time. Yawn. My feelings on that yo-yo are already documented.
Every state has a personality. Hmm. Mildly interesting.
A crappy rendition of the National Anthem. Nothing new. Ya never know what yer gonna get when you go to the yard.
Meg Ryan talks about her divorce. From, uh, 2000?
Wow, ok, well, in one day, not much changed.
And in that same day…people were rude on the CalTrain. My boss pooped on one of my performance reviews. The shuttle to the train broke down. There was a major accident a block from my house. And I ended the day with a deep headache and a really bad mood…that I brought home to The Good Man…just so he could experience the special joy his wife had to bring to the table.
feh!
