Midnight: I thought for a moment it was going to be Hamlet redux but then like in real life some people found redemption and others took a step toward finding a way.
That's good art.

Politics / Rascism: 
Today's winner from ‪#‎SeanToon911‬ 
Yes, Police? I'd like to report a suspicious looking black man who's partially blocking Jupitor.

​130 PM - The birds are singing and the sun is shining yet today has a huge shadow upon it. Several of us woke to the news via Peter's publisher, Connor, that Christopher Lee had passed away. Such an amazing man and a great actor. I know a l lot of us were hoping he would reprise his role as King Haggard when the live action version of The Last Unicorn finally gets made! One of the highlights of sitting and chatting with Peter when I helped out on the tour were his anecdotes about Christopher Lee. Even at the ripe age of 93, it's a big loss.

​Also, Actor, Ron Moody has died.

Oh Christ on a cracker! Christopher Lee, Ron Moody AND Ornette Coleman!

2PM Ah. So today is the day of depressing things. 
First weird dreams, then the deaths of two greatsnand now, Anne Lammot goes off the deep end with her crass comments about Caitlyn Jenner. So disappointed in her ignorance because she has written and said some wonderful insightful words. Really impressed that her son stepped in on her Twitter feed and corrected her in a loving way. So much *face palm*

Famed Author Anne Lamott Says She’ll Call Caitlyn Jenner “She” “When the Pee-Pee is Gone”
230PM 
​What is keeping me going right now?
Responsibility mostly.
My cat who is the most precious creature in my world.
A handful of helpful things I've agreed to do.
A few scattered pet-sitting dates on my calendar.
These things are good and there is some joy in them. They feed my soul just enough to keep it here. But I need more.

430PM  - Although the things I have endured in my life would spin many people into a depression nearly impossible to pull out of, they don't overwhelm me because I have not only survived them, for the most part, but have also been able to do many positive things in spite of them.

​Most of my bouts of depression are situational. I think it is this way for a lot of people. Either they can't change their situation or can't see how to change it. In my case it's a little of both. And even though I have been stuck in a hard situation which I've been helpless to change for some time I still find ways to be productive and happy in spite of it.
​
How happy and productive I'd be if my situation could change permanently!

530 PM I really appreciate the people who put their two cents in (in a good way) when I am processing frustration or sadness. It helps at times to be reminded that I am not invisible. In the spirit of cheering up, Jurassic World opens this weekend and I will be in the Oakland area.
I don't see any way this can not be fun! Plus a rare thing I get to enjoy Chrid Pratt and BD Wong in one film. Wait! I see Irrfan Khan is in it too! Anyone game to go see it with me in crazy 3D? A group of friends would be lovely. If the weekend is bad, I might be persuaded to wait until next week.
