Okay look.

Yes I’ve been prolific, and I would say the quality of the produce has been high, and I’m genuinely proud of all that.

But I’m giving myself permission to take a week or ten days off if necessary, and it might be.

The next five days are going to have to be hardcore trip prep, including paying all the June bills at one grinding go.

Then there’s at least 2.5 days pounding the road itself hard.

And on the other side of that there’s even more doing that will explode into being of necessity due to certain nuances of my softheadedness.

I should be in recoup by Sunday the 8th or something like that.

Expect one more massive messy dump of a post as I get these hundreds of browser tabs closed properly.

At then a long moment of stillness.

For the Pearl.

Among other things semiprecious.
