Today's Sightings
The goth girl. I had heard tell of her but hadn't seen her for myself until today. She's about 11 years old and was wearing black leggings, a black t-shirt with white words on it that I couldn't read from where I was, and a large black sun hat.
She was walking the yappy little dog, but with her it was very well behaved and didn't make a peep.
Before going out I told myself I wasn't going to photograph any more poppies since I already have so many I've taken. However, a fresh, new bloom was literally lying across the path I was taking. Fine, I will photograph you. It really was a gorgeous blossom. Most of them are pretty beat up at this point. This year was spectacular for them in the yard with a great many blooming. Much more than past years.
The dogwood blooms were also very cool.
Near the top of the street, I heard a hose running. They must be watering. Rosco's probably inside then. I proceeded with confidence for a few strides and then was startled by barking.
Rosco was clearly out somewhere and I soon spotted him. He was standing on a table that was part of a portable outdoor shower rig. Bath time.
I was relieved two people were with him on either side. His owner was reassuring Rosco that it was OK and I was just walking by. I really did not want a wet dog charging at me. Fortunately he seemed content to stay where he was and didn't seem to be trying to leap free.
I was just thrown because I couldn't place his bark. Sometimes it means, "Hey, talk to me, not them!" if I happen to chat with his owners. Other times, it's "Hello!"
This time either he didn't recognize me or maybe it was, "Hey, I can't play right now. They insist I do this bathing thing on occasion. Come back when I'm done!"
Also sighted: really pretty purple irises, purple petunias, lavender verbena, chenille plant (it looks fuzzy), and 2 different "Congratulations Grad" balloons that still had some lift tied to a mailbox.

Old Rock
So, I was out to dinner with my parents at Chili's. It was loud but I could make out a steady stream of what pains me to describe as old rock.
A new song came on. Blondie, I thought to myself, narrowing it down, but I couldn't pull up the name of the song. I was waiting for the chorus or some musical phrase that would help me place it when Mom said, "Heart of Glass."
"Yes!" I exclaimed. "Brava! Well done."
I hadn't mentioned I was listening or trying to place it, so her unbidden declaration was a delight.

Supergirl, Volume 4: Plain Sight
18. Supergirl, Volume 4: Plain Sight by Steve OrlandoMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
2.5 stars. Relied too much on footnotes to past volumes for my taste, but I give it an extra half star for having the first non-binary character I've come across in something I've read.
