Evelyn Day 33
Good morning to whoever is reading this. It is 18 April 2023.
Lisa is asleep here on the couch, and Lily is at her feet, Rosy is beside her, and I’ve got Freya tucked up between my legs under my lap desk. Lucy and Odin are camped out on dog beds over by the fireplace.
There’s news in the world today. A young man in Kansas City went to go pick up his sibling at a house, and went to the wrong house… he was supposed to go to an address on a “terrace”, and went to the corresponding address that ended in “street”. An 85-year-old man shot the young man after the young man rang the doorbell. No conversation, no words, no threats, just straight-up shooting. Makes me wonder what is wrong with people.
In New York, a 20-year-old woman was shot and killed when she pulled into the wrong driveway.
I don’t get it.
Unarmed people making the most innocent mistakes.
In the Kansas City case, the young man, Ralph Yarl, is home. He was shot in the head and the arm (yes, the homeowner shot him again after shooting him in the head). The first shot must’ve glanced off his skull – he got very lucky, and is, in fact, home recovering from the shooting.
There are some other big-time news events going on. The Fox News/Dominion lawsuit just started and is expected to run for six weeks. I have a feeling that this suit will not go Rupert Murdock’s way.
OK, time to start the coffee and get ready for the day.
I hope the world is treating you better than you deserve.
Peace y’all.
