Ok, today is Cheeseburger Day. I know, we just HAD Cheeseburger Day. Turns out that day was actually Double Cheeseburger Day. Today is just a single. Sorry for the confusion. Commence Cheeseburger Day.

Another 24 for me. Drinking seltzer, lime and pomegranate juice, my new favorite.

Mythical, magical, and divine birds. Continuing with the nightingale, and with “Ode to a Nightingale,” Keats writes:

O for a draught of vintage! that hath been
Cool'd a long age in the deep-delvèd earth,
Tasting of Flora and the country-green,
Dance, and Provençal song, and sunburnt mirth!
O for a beaker full of the warm South!
Full of the true, the blushful Hippocrene,
With beaded bubbles winking at the brim,
And purple-stainèd mouth;
That I might drink, and leave the world unseen,
And with thee fade away into the forest dim …
Clearly Keats liked his spirits, but the Hippocrene doesn’t hold artesian water for making special beer (remember the old Olympia commercial?). I had to look it up, but the Hippocrene is a source of water on Mount Helicon in Greece, said to have sprung from the hoofprints of Pegasus. Thus the association of fountains with winged horses, as in this fountain at a resort in the Bahamas:



The Muses hold the Hippocrene sacred and dance nearby, and a drink of its waters inspires. No nightingale in the image below, but all nine Muses, showing the goddess Minerva the Hippocrene, with the god Apollo and oh no—the return of swans!



I’m looking forward to seeing everyone in the next 24 hours – tomorrow, the origin of the nightingale.

Day by day, one day at a time, things are getting better!
