4/28/12

This is probably why we have blogs. Tomorrow is the 20th Anniversary of the Rodney King riots. Twenty years! Plottie can look back and see it all with crystal clarity, where he was (playing basketball) when they announced the not-guilty decision, the insanity of the next night and day, wishing he had a gun, the insane way his neighborhood got threatened and then saved, and then -- back to normal.

Twenty years? Plot's been blogging since 2005. At least he knows what he's been doing since then. But before that? What happened to all those hours, days, years?

The family moved to Saint Plotniko. The Great PD went off to college, The Great BZWZ grew up and out of the house too. The cats died, never got replaced. Duck kept working, then stopped.  Plot began studying Japanese, then stopped. Music, stories and songs. Trips. New friends.

Oh, yeah, Isabella.

But what about today? This post will be titled 4/28/12. At least, later on, if he wants to know what he did for a few minutes on a beautiful Saturday afternoon back in the spring of Ought Twelve,  he'll be able to look it up.
