  • Even today when my daughter is a self sufficient adult, whenever she calls for advice, the first thing I do is bring my mind back in time to when I was that age and remember what was going through my head when a similar situation to hers arose.

    It's not natural for me to do this. I have to make conscious effort. But it's proven to give me better perspective and increases her level of trust with me.

  • I've only ever heard her early stuff and this is what it sounds like to me:

    And we will never (deep breath) ever (deep breath) ever (another deep breath) ever (deep breath) get back (deep breath) together (deep breath)

    As a person, she seems savvy and pretty cool. If hey music hasn't progressed from the early stuff, I'll still take a pass.

  • The last time I logged on to Facebook was this past fall because there was a death in our fairly tight knit group of high school classmates. It had been three or four years since I'd been in there.

    So I went on and said my words.

    While I was there, I didn't really notice what was in my feed.

    What I noticed was suddenly I was getting notification after notification that my posts from years and years ago were getting deleted because they didn't fit whatever the current terms and conditions of use were.

    This amused me.

    So I left my words of dead classmate up for a week then sent my account silent again.

    I can't see Facebook or any social media being a place I ever hang out again, which is a little bit of a bummer because without any social media, IRL social activities all but come to an immediate and total halt.

    Oh well. I'll live.

  • I miss my dogs so so much, but since I live alone and work ungodly hours these days, I don't see dog ownership happening again until retirement. As things presently stand, I cannot be the owner a dog deserves.

  • Don't underestimate the magic of presidential healthcare.

    Nixon was the last president to die before his nineties.

    If Trump were a regular person like the rest of us, he'd likely already be dead, but whatever voodoo those presidential doctors perform, I wouldn't be surprised to see him zombie along for another twenty years.
