Moving slow, moving anyway
Hello, Readers All,
I got spanked for doing what I'm about to do awhile back by a subscriber to this list. They called me out for "shaming". Know what? Here I go again with a loud, proud, happy-as-shit THANK YOU to the 47 of you who opened the email last week and read something.
You are awesome.
There. Now to the matter at hand. A new story! With photos and everything.

Glad we went, won’t be back any time soon
Revisiting some basic assumptions We In The West have come to have about life...possibly revising some as well. If we don't, the gods will.
Opinion: American Assumptions | Remington Write | NewsBreak Original
When and where you are born determines many of the assumptions you grow up with. For example, there’s a laundry list of things certain (white) people in the United States take for granted. Like many girls of my generation, I grew up simply assuming that one day I would marry a man, have babies, live in a house that we owned and, of course, we would each have our own car. There would be retirement accounts and yearly vacations as well.
After all that seriousness, it's definitely time for snacks and belly rubs.

Settle down, settle down. Someone, Sal, treats? We need lots of treats for all these good boys. Goooooood boys! And, girls. Yes, yes, and good girls, too. Ok, ok. There may be some changes coming down and you need to be as prepared as possible. We all need to be prepared. Rudy, stop that. Sal, get Rudy out of here. Anyone else want to go back indoors? Hmmmm? Ok, good. Remember, no scratching!
My partner in life and art recently happened upon this lovely piece of short fiction he wrote less than two weeks after the city shut down in 2020 when our friend, The Virus, came to stay.

Love in the Time of Coronavirus
Hat's the door and you'll see that I turned the thank you sign right side up again.
https://ko-fi.com/remingtonwriteAnd there we have it. Your eyes on this ongoing monologue of mine turn it into something approaching a conversation.
Of course, flinging unwarranted zingers as well as fully warranted skepticism via email truly constitutes a conversation. Think about it: Remington.write@gmail.com
Back to work!
