Didn&#8217;t mean to. Normally I think these things through, hem-haw agonize over themes and possibilities, but I all of a sudden I was throwing down and digging in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">So here you have it\u2014a new deepsicks!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I swear I did this just the other week. It was a year and a half ago\u2014and only a handful of posts in between, I know. I know. I know.&nbsp;I liked how big the images were but the load time was a killer and the homepage grid made me wanna barf. Too dense and dumb, and the forced featured images&nbsp;irked me. All the&nbsp;white space in all the wrong place, and the monitor to device inconsistency. I didn&#8217;t like looking at it, which made me not want to post, or at least that&#8217;s my excuse. But this new design feels closer to right, and I&#8217;m feeling fine, or will, when my Laptop&nbsp;Spine decompresses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We&#8217;re in the deep heat of summer, coming off the rain that&#8217;s killing Louisiana. NPR likes to preface their bits with &#8220;less than 90 days!&#8221; till our first woman president or last president ever, and it feels awful close. It feels awful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lafitte, she&#8217;s still<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"792\" src=\"https:\/\/megasimon.com\/d6\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/lafitte-1200x792.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7301\" srcset=\"https:\/\/megasimon.com\/d6\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/lafitte-1200x792.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/megasimon.com\/d6\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/lafitte-768x507.jpg 768w, https:\/\/megasimon.com\/d6\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/lafitte-1536x1014.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/megasimon.com\/d6\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/lafitte.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8230;and we expect her to remain so, though we must wait a few months for confirmation, a routine testing for the heartworms we (hope we) killed this spring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">She&#8217;s a pretty good girl.
