morning weirds
I’m going to be in trouble when we get actual robot helpers. This morning I had a discussion with my Alexa.. I can’t decide whether to have the male voice or the female voice.
I have decided on the female voice. It seems, that she understands me better.. I know it’s weird but it’s early morning and I’ve only had a 1/2 a cup of coffee so there it is… have a great day

Princess Lilly in her “come hither” pose! Side note… it’s the following day and went back to the male voice. Female voice sounded too “sweet and kind”… they should introduce a sassy female voice with an english or australian accent.

Body consciousness
I have been noticing lately that my body is telling me how to sit, how to stand, how to walk… because when I don’t do what it’s telling me to do, it hurts.

going tharn
Describes the act of a person or animal frozen in terror… perhaps originally found in Richard Adam’s Watership Down …. also adopted by Stephen King in his book The Stand
wordreference.comand that is what this feels like. unfortunately, not only can we not see what’s coming but our ability to talk creates an embattled environment where information changes minute by minute. we really have no idea what is going to actually happen and our leaders are just as frozen.
there are samples written throughout our history on this planet but no one knows where this is going to go… least of all those of us in the trenches. we rage against our inability to do ANYTHING to fix this, other than sit in our homes and wait for it to burn out. at the cost of losing lives, livelihoods, homes and the human interaction that on the surface is helped by technology but underneath cries out for human touch… hugs… which we need right now. none of us are immune to any of it.
a salute to the people on the frontlines… doctors, nurses, aides, the grocery store clerks, the truckers who continue to deliver us the staples we need, everyone who is risking infection by helping us avoid it.
please be at peace my people. don’t verbally or physically beat up on people who have no control over this situation. help one another in your household and make sure your neighbors, family and friends know they are not alone.

Wondering what the world is
i haven’t written in my blog lately because things have been a little sideways. My cat boy has been sick so I’m taking care of him. i have realized that just because you think someone is “the one” doesn’t mean they really are… especially when they disappear without explanation leaving you to wallow around in the mire, trapped and asking yourself “what did I do wrong?”.
i read a little meme the other day that said, “be decisive. The streets are littered with flat squirrels that couldn’t make a decision” … or something to that effect, you get the idea.
i am tired of people who talk behind your back forgetting how small this area really is. of course the need to spread maliciousness has become a national pastime.
a friend who moved here from england told me that she was thinking about going back because the american people aren’t like they were when she first arrived all those years ago. we really are the ugly americans and the sad thing is, most are proud of it… and that goes for both sides.
maybe i am just tired
time to read Rob Brezsny’s book “Pronoia”
