Life in late capitalism can be vexing, alienating, fragmenting, and otherwise frustrating. There are many wonderful things in my life, but I'm more likely to talk about what's bad rather than what's good. I'm going to try to post one good thing here each day, and if you would join in by adding a good thing from your day in the comments, I'd love it--I'd absolutely love it. --RR
8/27: rhonda
Rhonda was our next-door neighbor for the past six years; she moved away at the end of July. Today I sent her a postcard with a picture I took on the lake because I know she misses this place. She's a really great, interesting, and kind person--she's done things like raise orphaned baby raccoons!--and now that she's in far-away Florida I wish that I had gotten to know her better when she was here. But knowing her at all is definitely a good thing.
