Early morning rain.

Set my $1000 new glasses on the shelf and went back to the old ones. At least something is in focus now.

Irritated by a guy calling from Charlotte wanting to install a security system, I accessed the call-blocking feature on my phone. So I thought. Turns out that it was a service that shuts out all callers BUT the ones I’ve selected, so for several weeks now anyone who called me got a “You are not on the list” message. I didn’t notice because almost no one calls me anyway. But I think of the hundred inquiries I set out, and the response or two which might have come by now except for my gesture of grand isolation.
