Approach of the morrow

 Yup. It is nearly that time again. By this time tomorrow, I will have had my first day back to work. How did I spend this, my last day of vacation? Library trip and a bit of shopping. Pretty much the same way I've spent most of these summer days. I spent part of the day reading 'Heartstopper 6' and 'The scarlet letter'. These books have nowt in common, by the by.

 Reading the former because I want to make sure it's appropriate for the library. Reading the latter because the last time I read it, I was just starting into my double-digits. Guaranteed, I was far too young to understand it; let alone appreciate it. Our family has a gorgeously-illustrated edition. At least, I hope my sister decided to keep it. Unfortunately, I do not have room for it on my shelves.

 Anyway, it's been a pretty quick read (The scarlet letter). I should be ready to bring it back later this week. Making progress in other things as well. Finally had a meeting with a lawyer to get my will done. One day, certain charities will be pleased with me. Anyway, I hope my few followers are pleased with their lives thus far.

BYE.

Mmmmmmmm

 This has been one of the most productive summers I've had in a long while. Hit the two targets by the end of July. New wheels, new bathroom faucet, and plenty of great books conquered. All in all, life has been wonderful. The inner arsehole keeps muttering about stuff going wrong. Why do we, as the rare thinking species, worry and doubt so freaking much?

 By rare thinking, I'm saying that humans have a massively developed prefrontal cortex. So we worry and doubt. But... it's a lovely day! So I'm thinking about further targets and goals. So optimistic. Meanwhile, I hope ye my few followers are having a wonderful summer.

BYE.

Comme Terry Fox

 I had plans to go to the library this morning. Forgot that today is Terry Fox Day - a civic holiday so the library is closed. That's okay. Here we are in the month of August. Great month for two reasons. The weather begins to cool off - total godsend after the millions of heat warnings - and some pretty amazing people have birthday this month.

 Woke up feeling ravenous. Savoured a three-cheese snackwich from Subway. Probably my favourite of the four options. The BLT is pretty good too, but the 3-cheese is the best. This summer has been composed of ups and downs. Stuff that one has no control over. I've long repeated the phrase "tech is great WHEN IT WORKS." When it does not, gnashing of teeth ensues.

  Started reading 'On Hobbes' by Alan Ryan today. Love Hobbes... from 'Calvin & Hobbes', but I don't know all that much about the philosopher. He made to 91 in a world where making it to 45 is summat of a miracle. Was it genetics? His diet? That would be an interest skit to float on TikTok; the Thomas Hobbes diet!

 Anyway, I hope ye fab folk are doing well.

BYE.
