Mostly-mostly over Covid. Yay!
Fully switched over to The Log from the Sea of Cortez. Really enjoying it, mostly.
I would be very interested to find a more recent book that is similar to its form, but doesn’t have to be an exact replica. The base skeleton is the expedition-adventure in the title, but there are so many diversions about observations of humanity, philosophy, psychology, about anything, really. Maybe it is the quality of Steinbeck’s observations that are drawing me in; I want that but updated for today’s world and sensibilities.
As is usual with really good writing, I am inspired to try and write some of my own. It does seem kind of impossible though.
These are books that I plan to take my time with. Maybe years.
Getting back into the swing of things post Covid. Going running tonight.
What’s interesting is that I am not presently attracted to listening to ‘unnatural’ sounds right now. And that includes music. It’s kind of a weird spell. I might have something to do with covid? That might just be magical thinking.
Still reconstituting the process.
Went out to a local Korean place, and it was very good. The menu was small, but what we had from it was good enough for us.
