Out of the Blue

Happy Earth Day 2012, though I'm sure I've previously expressed that every day should be Earth Day, like in the old Peanuts cartoon where they point out every day is children's day. We celebrated by doing a lot more work on our disaster of a backyard yesterday, and a large portion of the downed wood from the winter is gone. And I'll just pretend that burning charcoal on the grill just emits lavender-scented oxygen and see how denial works on that.

My brain turned Jedi Junkies and Dog Food Disaster into Jodie Foster Disaster. I thought oh no, what funny thing happened to Jody? I reread it and thought oh. Drag.
