The first and last you'll hear from me about Taki Soma

This entry is behind a cut in case, like me, you generally prefer to avoid unnecessary drama in your blog reading. I shall resume the lighthearted entries about dogs, snow and butterflies shortly. (Incidentally, along those lines, the woods are full of grouse right now. They were drumming left and right yesterday. Very cool!)

Anyhow...

( Cut for personal politics and stuff )

My garden is almost out from under the snow. It's spring, dammit! The private lives of strangers are no business of mine, and I'm obviously spending far too much time worrying about them. The garden ... that, now, that's my business, and one I'm eagerly looking forward to getting back to.
