Is this the real world? Or…
Today’s use of VPN’s, virtual pcs, containers, and remote desktops is like being in a real live version of Inception. To be honest, I’m not convinced I’m all the way back out yet.

Deep Thoughts
The beauty of youth is that the young do not yet know what they cannot do therefore they can do anything.
Stoned dog
Annie says, “I have no idea what is going on. I taste colors. I see fractals. I’m beginning to understand the true nature of the universe. I am dog!”
N.b. We thought Annie was suffering a partial tear in the dog equivalent of an acl. That’s a $4000 surgery. Turns out she pulled her groin. The treatment is 10 weeks of sedation, pain medicine, and muscle relaxers. My only question is: what can I do to pull my groin? I could use the rest.

For the damage I thought would buff out
Collision repair company: “Your car is fine. Uh. But our building doesn’t have a roof, gas, electricity, water, or phone because of the storms. We cannot finish the paint job and don’t know when it will be ready.”
Annie loves the doctor
Antimony gets so excited at the vet’s office. Has to jump on everyone and kiss all her new friends.
At the vet to discuss a $4000 surgery to fix a torn ACL for Annie the dog. But there is no tear. Dog pulled her groin. No surgery for that. Dog gets 10 weeks of rest. Yes, a golden retriever has to rest…for 10 weeks!
