Software stinks
The more they try to make the software guess what I want to do, the more annoying the software is. Why can't they just make software that just does what I tell it. Stop trying to guess as what I want to do. Stop trying to track my location. Stop trying to figure out what to advertise to me. They really stink at figuring me out. 99.9999% of the time the software tries to do something I don't want to do. It guesses words I'm not typing. It guesses locations I'm not at. And if I
Do I look like I know what I'm doing?
Do I look like I know what I’m doing? No, seriously, do I? There have been several times this week when someone has asked me directions, or if I know which bus they need to take, or train, or etc. I don’t know. I just started working in this town. I’ve only figured out how to get to work. I don’t know the entire bus system, or the rail line, or where your street is, or any restaurants or movie theaters or possible sites of interest.

I Can't Believe That Worked
I can't believe that worked. One of the acorns I planted last fall has sprouted. You can see the picture yourself. I put my foot next to it so you can get some idea of the scale. It's a tiny tree currently. But it did sprout. I actually have an oak tree growing in the spot I've wanted a tree for years. Of course it'll only grow into a big oak tree if we're lucky. And if the rabbits don't eat it like they ate the tulips. So we're not there yet, it's not a full grown tr
A People Person vs A Not People Person
I’m not a people person. Some people are. My husband was. One of my sons really is. But I’m not. And it does make a difference. A people person loves to be around others. Loves a good chat. Loves to just hang with their friends. These behaviors give them energy. It pumps them up. It satisfies them emotionally. Even talking with strangers makes them feel good. Not so for introverts. I really don’t care for hanging out, chatting with people, going to parties, etc. It doesn’t pu
Procrastination
Don’t put off until tomorrow… Really, don’t put it off. Procrastination is the bane of my life. Yes, I do tend to procrastinate. Sometimes, admittedly, it is stuff that I can successfully put off forever. But not most of it. Most of it needs to get done. And most of it needs to get done NOW! Unfortunately, as I said previously, these days I just don’t have time. This commute is killing me. I’m losing a good chunk of my day just getting to work and getting home again. I don’t
