campy
Slept well.
Gloria Einhorn paid us a visit. Mary fed her and cut her hair. Gloria brought apples and sugar-free cookies in exchange.
Chicken for my lunch, with a steamer of asparagus, garden tomatoes and a very spicy chicken tamale. Gloria's diet allowed her Mary's goulash minus the beef. Mary had the best of both worlds.
Gloria takes Mary's advice seriously.
Mary gave Gloria a farewell tour of her garden and loaded her up on mint plants to set out.
Mary and I were interested in Gloria's Subaru, but encountering the usual design barriers for me.
As Gloria was leaving, sister Deborah drove up and gave me some of Mother's tax papers to process.
Mary and I watched Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979) from Netflix. Klaus Kinski's take on Dracula is interesting, but I didn't like Werner Herzog's directing. The result was campy.
Too windy/chilly for the outpost.
54.8 °F, clear.

Too bad about the Subaru. I know you are thinking about having to replace the Durango. I think most of the Dracula movies and ones of that ilk are supposed to be campy - lest we take them too seriously!
asparagus sounds good at this time of year ~
That chicken looks nice and juicy, and are those maybe soon the last of your tomatoes?
The new Dracula film mixes history with superstition. It ought to be anything but campy.
