Serious Sleep-In Tuesday

Let's face it, as a retired Holladay, I'm lazy and like sleeping in; but, today, Whoa!! I was up a little later than normal and convinced a dog it was too early for him to go visit his girlfriend but then neither of us seemed like getting up really mattered.. but here we are now, not exactly ready to go, up with coffee, checking on the goings-ons around the planet.

A new sunspot is growing our nearby star, could get wild and hurl some high energy particles our way. A crescent moon might be spottable tonight, likely clouds around here by then but mostly clear now after a very foggy early morning(we'll blame the napping on that even though it cleared fairly early...:)

Another very quiet quake day, 27 on the list right now and only 2 above mag. 5 and both sea floor shakes far from land, of course, Oklahoma has some post fracking quakes..

The front that stirred things up across the northern tier of Va. yesterday, only drops here, is down across the south. The next storm center currently bring snow on its back side to the Great Lakes will lower temps here and bring pollen clearing rain tomorrow. No big heat coming any time soon, Spring can be spring-like.

TrumpVirus deaths remain low but case numbers jumped back up. Vaccinations continue to get into arms but opened up states and non-believers (really, it seems to be young, don't care about anybody but me and my phone types driving the current rise) still spreading, the still rapidly evolving pandemic.

And, it being America, white cops continue to stop, hassle, pepper spray and shoot black-ish men. Minnesota, with one murderer cop on trial already, has another suspended (with pay of course) for not knowing the difference between her gun and taser - nice training there. Although, the kid she killed, not that he deserved to be killed, is a classic example of the real issue, bad parenting creating law breakers; a disgustingly obese white 'ho for a mother and no sperm donor, "dad" jumping up to protest his spawn's death.

I continue to stand by this little reality: With good parenting there is no need for police.

To break that somber bit, I just opened my door to let a large brown dog out and sitting right at the door, a largish brown lizard, both had a bit of a start before Mr. Liz darted in quick retreat and Mr. Dog gave a short chase. Mr. Dog just cleared the yard of the nasty tree rats (squirrels) as well, what a good boy.

Stay safe, stay home (if you can), mask up, but get out on your planet, it's Spring, Today On Earth.
