Any week which includes a Who night with Lorelei is a good week, but last week was good in other ways as well. It started early Monday morning with a lecture (via video link) to an anthropology class at the University of Michigan, then continued Tuesday with one of my regular beauty treatments and a lovely evening with Lorelei (which beside Doctor Who also included the last two episodes of Good Omens). I had a productive week of both remunerative work and writing (after editing my video lecture for Renegade University last week), and I even got two lovely presents: the seventh season of Bewitched from Chekhov, and a Stornoway black pudding all the way from Scotland via Brooke Magnanti! I like regular black pudding, but the Stornoway variety is without peer and at the time of this writing I’m still savoring the memory of the flavor from dinner a few hours ago; I’m going to take what’s left of this one out to Sunset on Thursday to share with Grace for Lammas. Anyhow, that’s all I have to say for now; the selfie is simply one I took last Thursday and thought my hair looked extra-nice.

I had to re-read that to make sure there wasn’t a joke I was missing. Black pudding!, Stornoway are the best!
I also like haggis!
A joyous Lammas Maggie.
