Well, maybe we will get a bit more misty drizzle today. We got some the last two days. Not much, barely got the street wet, but still enough to make it slick on the roads and to make it even moister than usual. Weather map shows clear, but I’m still going with overcast and threatening.
I spent most of the day messing with computers. Far too much effort and time on that stupid Chromebook. Far too little time on selling or getting stuff ready to sell. And too much time on domestic bliss. Oh well, momentum lost.
We’ll see if I can get any back today. Depends mostly on the weather I think. Who am I kidding? It depends entirely on me. And I’m slack. Now, acknowledging that, we are still going to try. At least I don’t have 2 ft of snow to deal with.
If I can poke at 4 different project today, and still make dinner, I’ll call it a good day.
I won’t even count stacking amongst the 4.

*title was a youtuber lamenting criticism of a brand that encompassed a wide variety of choices. I disagree. If the brand doesn’t have at least some continuity across the choices, it isn’t really a brand, just a collection of stuff. And broad strokes act as a summary, letting you move to big picture discussions without getting bogged down in details.
Wednesday. Good morning!
Short schrift this morning. I have to get to the fang doctor, and mustn’t be late. Talk among yourselves.
P.S.
You can’t broad stroke it, but you mustn’t short stroke it!

I saw the first ex-wife’s posting in my YouTube subscription yesterday.
I believe Adams deliberately let himself get cancelled rather than leave the Dilbert IP behind to fund the second ex-wife’s lifestyle.
Another Bang Bang from what I understand.
DEI is over in IT but management has gone back to their old favorite – age discrimination.
I also heard a management type use the relatively new “on the spectrum” label behind the back of someone who was pushing back on a legitimate technical issue late last week.
That line always flips the “bozo bit” in my head about the individual applying the label.
I never heard that before moving to Austin. Ironically, it seems like most of the management types here are on Adderall (men), Wellbutrin (women), and/or T-therapy (both).
People in the US always look for a shortcut or pharma helper first. Propaganda and conditioning are strong there.

47F and the coffee is brewing. Kids are both moving, wife is not. Sky looks clear to the east.

Weird dreams this morning, full color, full plot.

And then there is Clarence Carter. When I was faking my ID and hanging out in a little college bar in Indiana, this was a several times a night favorite on the juke box.

Something is coming at my employer in the next few months, whether or not the Monkey Trick runs out of gas during that period.
The stock is at around the same point now as it was when the execs got their stock grants last Spring.
