2 Bowls of Soup Eaten

So, while J and I were driving towards picking up pizza for Bill6, since he doesn’t do fifteen bean soup, we almost got into an accident as some pair of shmucks cut me off and nearly knocked my front bumper off in a near-miss sideswipe.

Reffie and I went to the Van Gogh Experience at The Dalí Museum in St. Petersburg today. I was moved to literal tears, at one point. Not by the images themselves, but by the words. His words; his own struggles and emotions in his own hand.
