Some days one should just drink in the azalea energy

The picture is from the last day of Folklife and the custom of the Seattle Peace Chorus doing a Mozart Requiem sing-along which seems actually a fitting thing for Memorial day and definitely more congenial than other ways to observe.

Magnificent pink azalea tree or is it a rhodie???
Never mind the trash on the metal table.

 5.4 hours of sleep.in bed plus nap after a snack.

The Force with rants is especially strong today. Terrible because my phone is DEAD, so DEAD that it won'd even hold a charge long enough to receive verification codes.

The words "named plaintiff" are on my mind. I can't be the only one.

PS Happy Birthday Alexei Navalny

In the novel "Oblomov" by Nikolai Goncharov, it takes the main character 50 pages to decide to get out of bed. RantWoman falls somewhere between these two poles.

This blog is partly intended to collect data in hopes that RantWoman can settle on some steady practices to help her get more sleep. What time does RantWoman fall asleep? Is this before or after RantWoman goes to bed? What time does RantWoman go to bed? What time does RantWoman get up? Does RantWoman go back to bed? If so, how long does she sleep the second round? Adventures with CPAP The Queen of Spades and behavior issues. What ti...
