A terminal for all blogs coming in or going out. A view into my life.
Started July 1st 2019 for contests, etc. as other blogs are filling up and have other purposes.

I'm starting a new blog because

had over 1,200 entries and that was getting close to full. I don't want to trim it by deletion. I did that once, much to my dismay. Will be used more for poetry.

BOOK

Anything I'm not happy about or that I don't want in my main blog!

BOOK
Enga mellom fjella  (13+)
Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.
#1317094 by Kåre Enga in Montana

I'll be linking to

is for my opinions. *Laugh*

BOOK

On topics and today's gnus. Definitely opinionated. Set to 18+ for a reason.
#1439092 by Kåre Enga in Montana
come out of a need to share interesting stuff I come across. When I was young I did a small newsletter named as such. (or was it column in the newsletter? Been 30 years... I think.)

 
FOLDER
Flash Fiction  (GC)
Short 300 word, more or less, "stories" .
#2190336 by Kåre Enga in Montana
is where I put my flash fictions. Maybe someday I'll figure it out and have enough good ones to publish. Ratings vary and some are hidden from view.

I've started an appendix (I no longer have one personally) to keep track of my Space Cadet journals for Space Blog. It's a work constantly under construction. Mind the mess.
STATIC

Journeys of an Alien Space crew.

I needed to start a folder for contests as there are so many deadlines and details to remember.

         Sunday, April 14th, a red day. SONGKRAN. 99° at noon. 104°. Went out a couple times. Walk to Mini Big C. Bought coffee. Got dumped on once. Pan went to work. At least he told me his schedule. Looked at flights.

         Saturday, April 13th, a purple day. SONGKRAN. 100° at noon. 104° high. No energy or interest. Only went as far as Surada and 7/11. I don't do well in heat. Amusing to watch water fights.

         Friday, April 12th, a sky-blue day. Did minimum exercise. Did minimum period. Pan cleaned and cooked. Paulo and I went to Bellinee for coffee. Stopped in at Surada and 7/11.

         Thursday, April 11th, an orange day. Need to exercise earlier as sun is coming around. I put on my orange Coopedota shirt from Costa Rica. Pan gifted me a pair of orange underwear when he got back. I cooked today: rice with shredded carrot, onion, enoki, sweet-potato, malago, potato... I added some orange juice and placed 4 eggs and let the rice cooker do its job. Did get to market. Bought food. Watched a bit of "Deep Night" คืนนี้มีแค่เรา.

         Wednesday, April 10th, a green day. Much cooler in the morning. Low may have been 73°. Refreshing. Easier to exercise. Walk to Lotus for food. No one to talk to. 5 liters of water. Wrote lyrics "I saw a friend today..." and did what I had to do at WDC but listless, a bit of BL, 90° the high? Battled ants.

         Tuesday, April 9th, a pink day. About to SS&S... then go out of my a/c cave. I ate buttered rice and egg for brunch. Did my exercise, now need to exorcise. 97° at noon. 102° at 3:03 pm. Learning more Thai using BL/GL as examples. Wind and a couple drops of rain. Temp fell ... possible to 86° or lower. Entered Hook: "April... rosebud..."  . Added "In the beginning [181.6]"  to "L'aura del Campo" .

         Monday, April 8th, a yellow day. Got out to Surada. Spoke to P'Nan, a couple (Thai/US) and then two men (UK/Turkiye) by 7/11. Not much appetite but did eat leftover fish. Very hot. 104°. Promised rain... didn't. Watched some Thai on-line. Looked at flights. Messaged Pan; he paid electric bill (1.650 baht). Another achievement award as I posted in my forum. Sat in Tower B Library with the a/c.
