Day 2 of new job and I think I learned as much as the first year of my old job. This might be fun.
ah yes, statues ARE history! this is why all history classes consist entirely of visiting parks to look at statues. if there is no statue of something, we never learn about it
Last day at work, then taking a few weeks off before starting the next job. I hope this new one will give me a sense of accomplishment and learning like other jobs did. This last one was just a grind with empty promise of opportunity.
The cat got sick in 3 or 4 different locations while I was on the tolit, but the dogs came along and cleaned it up. And I'm happy with this, because I will put them into their cages and then goto bed so I don't even have to smell their breath. 😁 I should not own animals.
Well, this article hits something near to my heart. Voting machines should be open-sourced and auditable.

Bruce Schneier had a good idea related to this, treat voting machines like slot machines. Verifiable EPROMS, someone will show up in 20 min.
I applied for a job and did one interview, then they asked for references. Sent them over after giving them a heads-up, but the hiring manager says all the phone numbers and emails don't work. 2 of the 3 respond with phone numbers that match my records, so seems like I'm not getting it due to incompetence of the hiring manager. Might be best that I don't work there.
Time to annoy some creationists on Friday.

I'm still hungry. Saw some cooking shows before dinner and I'm craving meat. MEAT! I want aged stake with a rich sauce and covered in bacon.
Took a walk this morning and found a nice park and took some nice photos, but app keeps saying media upload failed. I'm on WiFi, so that's not it, just means you can't see the awesome live oak covered in moss.
Gah. Its been hours since the doc said Dad could leave the hospital, but the computer has not been updated so he can't fill out the paperwork to leave. 😤
Mmm, lobster taco. 🌮
So, if you want to hear what I sound like and/or want to hear about my writing, I was in a podcast today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyfIFblHlXY&feature=youtu.be

Just saw a video review for the Apollo 1 concept phone. it has a rounded base and mixed body of wood and metal. I have a wood case for my pixel, so I liked the look of the the Apollo 1.
So am I one of the few people that like wood? Just add some brass trim and a few gears and my phone is steampunk.
still at my dad's, should be out if the hospital today or tomorrow, then they can start doing the cancer tests and he goes back into the hospital. Apparently you can't be too sick to get the tests done, or at least attached to machines pumping stuff in and out of you.
sitting outside at be my dad's listing to the frogs have sex. How many times can they get it on? Damn amphibians
I have to work late tonight and need a tiny pick-me-up.
For every like/boost, I'll give a brief summary of one novel/novella that that exists in my master arc for Fedran.
(Plus it will help me flesh out my master arc connections.)
