Self Talk Should Not Include Self Delusion

Sometimes, when I read "headlines."

Tuesday and I'm still in this crappy State. Meaning WaRshington and not a Mental condition. Although WaRshington is a mental condition. Who an I kidding? WaRshington State is fucking nuts!

Bummed that I woke up at 0615 and it was still dark. I hate winter. (And it's not even really (officially) Winter yet!) If I won the lotto I'd probably spend the rest of my days following Summer around the world. Not sure if SWMBO would join in cause she likes the Seasons. Hey, I like the Seasons too! But I really just like those seasons that start with "Summer." And, yes, I'd rather be too warm than too cold any day any time anywhere.

You ever go to put on flip-flops and have that one that just sort of spins around and around and you keep trying to get your toes in it but it keeps spinning around and they (your toes) just won't fit and you finally reach down and hold it steady and finally get your toes in it? Yeah, that's my life sometimes.

It's NOT my Navy anymore: Rachel Levine sworn in as first openly transgender four-star admiral

Decided to get out and over-engineer the mounts on the solar panels before adding a new one. Still worried about the wind we get sometimes ripping the things off and sending them for a flight into the forest.

In the Good News department: They've lowered SWMBO's O2 to 80% @ 60 liters/min. Which is really good. She could be home in a couple of weeks if she continues to progress like this. Woo Woo!

Hey, ain't it about time to turn the clocks back? What a useless ritual that has turned out to be.

Ah, well.
