This morning as I awoke from a deep slumber at 5:37 am, as the sun shown thru my window, I made a very important decision. I felt I wasn’t getting anything out of FaceBook any longer – it’s been about ten years (more, or less), since I first joined, I’ve not been getting any likes, […]

FaceTime call from The Little Girl
I had a FaceTime call a few minutes ago. It was the little girl, her baby sister, her mom (Katie McCormick), and her cousin, Kenna, calling to wish me a happy birthday. It was so nice to see and hear from all of them. Warmed my (crazy, sentimental) little heart. They truly make me feel […]

Got home tonight after reading this new murder mystery on the bus, and decided I needed to watch “girl on the train”. O.m.g., I’m half way into […]
Robots
Frigging amazing. I remember how auto workers (in the 80s?) were (rightly so) afraid that these robots would be taking their jobs. It turned out that people were needed to program them (what you just saw was pretty good programming at work), AND people who could fix them when they broke. The only issue I […]
