I try to have one core activity that I accomplish each day, so as I lounge in the sloth of unemployment, I don’t become a giant, fat, dim-witted slug.

Today’s goal, ruthless sorting of an essentially entire room of clothes. My attitude is no-prisoners-taking. With extreme prejudice clothes that I even feel slightly equivocal about will be bagged and jettisoned to worthy charities. There are sweaters I think I like, but not actually enough to don. They will be bagged. There are pants or shorts or whatever that I visually like, but in actual practice they scratch or bind or move in irritating ways. They will be gone.

The hardest items will be those that border between clothes and costume that I wear essentially for effect. It’s not like you can wear a tight black leather skirt every day. And, what of the red leather bustier?

At least, I have finished cleaning up this godforsaken website. My hosting service was singularly unhelpful when the weblog and a couple of other files just stopped working for no apparent reason and without my fiddling.

By the time they got back to me with the “senior” support level, three days had passed, so I had already rebuilt most everything. So, now they say it appears to be working fine, and they have no record of errors. What’s irksome is they say that absolutely nothing has changed at the server level. But, how else to explain spontaneous not loading and CHMOD problems?

Anyway, this area now seems stable, and I’m OK with the colors and the general layout. Don’t love it, but it is certainly serviceable. I do love the rotating photo for the mobile photo gallery link. My hat is off to this man.
