The parade is at six fifteen

No, it isn't.

But I was totally productive today! I edited two paragraphs of the paper I'm editing to submit for a contest. Well, I sort of edited. I marked what I don't like, wrote some suggestions, got other papers which are better written to look at, and made some (but not all) changes. I've forgotten that editing, real editing, is intense and difficult work. By 'real editing' I mean absolutely decimating my own paper, and then raising it from the ashes better than it ever was. It's a little intellectually exhausting. That's probably why I don't do it often, even though I know I should and even though I always appreciate the results of my efforts when I'm done.

I also made a list of things I might put in a short essay to submit with a photo of Mister Bones for a contest. I seem to have a thing for contests lately. Right now, the photo I'm thinking of is upside-down-bat-ears:

I will modify it though, at least, or take a new one in a similar pose. It would be better if his eyes were visible.
