Why do I have “clam shack” on my to-do list for today?
My handwriting sucks.
Update: “Alarm clock!!” I need to buy a new alarm clock!!!
Update 2: Although I probably should also get out to the coast to build and operate that clam shack I’ve always dreamed of.
Climb the moonlit midnight mountain …
Find the dreaded blood-red wood.

We wish you a monstery Christmas …
A sublimely talented ladyfriend of mine made these Christmas ornaments, and I think they’re wicked cool. She told me that they’re “Cornish pixies,” and that they’re Harry Potter characters.
The last photo depicts dragon-egg ornaments. Those might be a reference to Harry Potter too, but I stopped her before she could tell me … I’m much, much happier thinking they’re from Game of Thrones. (Seriously, look at the red one!)
Dubious fame.
That awkward moment when looking like James Woods makes you the hit of the neighborhood and people want to take their picture with you.
I hope at least I don’t look the same age.
