Calliope walked into the studio. While Thalia tidied the table, Urania tore pages from magazines and clipped out images of ice cream cones, flouncy dresses, and butterflies. Scraps littered the floor around her feet. Calliope closed her eyes and shook her head.
Nia’s nicked Thalia. Calliope is not her settled self. And Thalia’s a docent of sorts. “Everything can be this...”

Your mention of Blockbuster brings to mind one small store, Video 21, in our town. Of course they began with VHS tapes but later adapted to CD’s. They persisted in that business long after our last Blockbuster had shut their doors. At last Video 21 held a sale of their wares. The location then morphed into an antique store! And not the first VHS tape to be found... (note: I still have some VHS tapes and my prized Sony VHS player. Tape boxes bear counter #s for key scenes! Sentimental hoarding. 😬)
My plan for the day is to next read Jay’s Friday post. And to stay away from your river. Ice and all that... 🙃
