Post-Second Pride Hug - Day +1

Sarco Halderman

On the Monday morning after Second Pride had ended I met DJ Sarco when he was doing a set st Stiges (Yes. it is Stiges - not Sitges, I checked three times.)

We both realized that a hug was imperative, Pride or no Pride...

"Man At Work" Photography by Tomais Ashdene

While my Tomais and I were out scouting "things and stuff" for an upcoming super-classified project that I am involving myself in my lover spotted a great set of complete office furniture.

This lead to me buying the office-set and at Tomais wonderful suggestion set it up as a place for me to work on the top floor of the beautiful barn at Southern Charm. We will of course have to install double-glazing before winter comes, but right now it is a wonderfully quiet with a perfectly temperate climate.

The new workplace turned out beautifully and I was extremely pleased. My hubby deserved a huge reward for his great idea, and I made sure to give him one (much to my own enjoyment also - of course).

For the Latin in the post title I refer you to this article Scriptorium;"What’s Latin for ‘blog’? (revised)". I am hoping I understood it correctly, otherwise please feel free to assist me.

My Apmelito Vortex

Happy Independence Day, 2014

The American Declaration of Independence (declaring independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain), was adopted by Congress on this day in 1776.

The preamble of that declaration says, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

Even if Thomas Jefferson's words are heavily influenced by religion and natural law philosophy they, to this day, express what those of us that believe in a democratic society based on full and equal human rights for all citizens still hold true.

I wish all my American family members, friends and readers a happy Independence Day!
