Daily Nilknarf Haiku

Brilliance, moon shines
Dead eyes, ripped bodies, cruel minds
The way of this world.

Tard. Lord, lord, I'm tard. And I'm not sayin' "Lord, lord" because I believe in a lord, it's an expression, folks, give me a break, OK?

Got up on time this morning, got to work on time, worked all day... well, except for a meeting at 13:15, "Kindness Connects", which has turned out to be quite a bit more than that. More on that later, or maybe not.

We're gonna move ahead on building the shop, finally got that decided in my head. It's gonna be in the back of the house, so nobody can see it, so (hopefully) nobody will break into it and steal my tools.

I've been really flaky lately, and I'm wondering if something has happened to my head, or if maybe my whole attitude has changed... well, that kinda qualifies as something happening to my head, right? Anyways, I can't really concentrate on anything at work. Maybe I just need a few more days or something.

It's like, things that upset me before... just don't anymore.

I'm just a lot more complacent. Don't try to solve the problems, they're insoluble, just go with the flow and do what needs to be done.

I made an operator at one of the doc's offices really happy today. I called about a patient's lab values (they'd lied to us about the patient being diabetic) since we needed to know what the creatinine was before we could do the exam. I spent a few minutes explaining to the lady what I needed, and she got into their computer system (first time for her!) and found it. She told me, "Damn! I don't get to feel useful very often!"

And it made both me and the patient very happy too.

General life philosophy: Love life, live as long and as well as possible; die without regrets.

I don't know if that's a new thing with me or not, or if I finally just articulated it right.

Karen fixed grilled salmon for supper, along with steamed broccoli. Excellent.

And I may have not mentioned this lately, but she is a wonderful woman and I love her so much....


Thanx for being here!
