farewell and thank you

jimmywrites had its 100th consecutive day of posts yesterday. That milestone was an informal goal I had set for myself, and I am now beginning an indefinitely timed sabbatical from the blog format. I am going to work on some longer form essays and cannot find the time to do that and keep up the blog. I want to thank everyone who has been reading this. A consistent group of readers developed over the short life of jimmy (and squirrel) writes, and I just wanted to let you know what a pleasure it has been for me to write these, especially knowing someone was enjoying them (hopefully you were enjoying them). I think this format is wonderful for photos and short essays, but just not the best way to display longer essays/short stories. So, farewell for now.
Thank you.
BTW - don't worry about squirrel, he'll be fine...with the right medication.

be flat

it is my understanding that residual radiation from the most recent universal separation incident (big bang) exists in a frequency nearly equivalent to a b-flat, and that the deepest "note" ever detected is a b-flat emanating from a supermassive black hole (57 octaves below a middle C). And so, as I listen (and who wouldn't)...closely, intently...and it is faint, almost imperceptable, but I think I hear it...wait, listen....there it is...the universe humming, humming a "b flat," hummmmm. shhhh........no, no, wait, goddamn it, i am pretty sure that is the hum from my idiot neighbor's generator. i wish it were easier. i think.
