A Drivel Runs Through It

Sunday, July 30, 2006

No, really, where DOES the time go?
I spent the better part of today listing my very first item on eBay. I finally worked up the courage to start selling, but man, is it complicated. I have new respect for eBay sellers. Strategy, psychology, math, law, rules, policies, photography, shipping weight, insurance ... there's a lot that goes into an eBay listing!

I'm getting ready to unplug my satellite modem and -- in what has become an annual tradition -- take August off from the Internet. Too much to do, too little time, and all that. Books to read, stories to write, rivers to float, hikes to take ....

Summer in Montana is short, and precious.

Patia,

I love your blog and visit every day. I have a cousin who lives in Missoula so your blog also gets me in touch with the beautiful country you all live in.

Oh, and do please give my fondest regards to Luna and Tango. I really enjoy your pictures and stories about them.

Wishing you a delightful time on your summer break.

You're a better woman than I, Patia! I think your annual departure from cyberspace is admirable. Not sure I could stick it out.

Enjoy the time off. If I had half your sense, I'd at least attempt to do the same thing.

And, as always, I await your return.

Thank you, Suzanne, for stopping by and commenting. It's so nice to know people are enjoying .... Tango and Luna are sleeping now, but will soon arise and ask to be let out for nocturnal prowlings. When they wake, I'll be sure to give them your regards. :-)

Bitterroot, it's not easy, that's for sure. I'm an Internet addict!

Thanks so much, Wulfie. I so admire your relentless activism -- you are really fighting the good fight. But do be sure to enjoy some of Montana's fabulous summer while it lasts!
