I am absolutely craving something Eastern Mediterranean. But I'm also craving Chinese. I can do one but not the other.

Gonna hit 90F/32C next Wednesday. You know what that means: TEABERRY ICE CREAM TIME

This is one of those songs that takes your mood and makes you happy wether you want to be or not.

I don't know how to feel about this. On one hand, Texas BBQ is sacroscant and is a thing of perfection. But these adaptions look GOOOOD.

Thoughts Before Bed:

Ending the day on a good note. We know what is causing the cough and neck pain, and there's movement on the psoriasis front.

More to do, but now it's addressing the problems versus trying to figure the problems out.

Spent the day being productive. Dishes done, house cleaned, and, get this, I reworked my resume. That took a LOT of pain killers and ice packs, but it got done.

When I was laid off, I was given outplacement services. They took my old resume, some questions and rebuilt a new one for me. I didn't like it, but figured they knew more than I did about resume writing these days (my original resume was designed in 1999!)

I ended up taking their text and redesigning the resume to a less cluttered one, but kept the text and formatting.

Fast forward five months - I get a meeting with an unemployment person, and he basically eviscerates my resume for every reason I didn't like the rewrite. Not in a mean way, but in a very constructive way. So, I basically merged all my resumes together with his suggestion:

Clean it up, ditch the keyword list and put it in the descriptions, remove the address (location bias) remove the dates from older jobs (age bias), and don't be afraid of a two page resume.

I rather like it. Nintendo is still a WALL OF TEXT but my job at Nintendo was ten years long and I did a WALL OF JOBS there.

I just want to be bitten by a radioactive person who has their life together

"Years ago, anthropologist Margaret Mead was asked by a student what she considered to be the first sign of civilization in a culture. The student expected Mead to talk about fishhooks or clay pots or grinding stones.
But no. Mead said that the first sign of civilization in an ancient culture was a femur (thighbone) that had been broken and then healed. Mead explained that in the animal kingdom, if you break your leg, you die. You cannot run from danger, get to the river for a drink or hunt for food. You are meat for prowling beasts. No animal survives a broken leg long enough for the bone to heal.
A broken femur that has healed is evidence that someone has taken time to stay with the one who fell, has bound up the wound, has carried the person to safety and has tended the person through recovery. Helping someone else through difficulty is where civilization starts, Mead said."
We are at our best when we serve others. Be civilized.

Recall a time when someone came to your aid, stood up for you, showed you an unexpected kindness. Hold on to those memories, for they are dear. Strive every day to make someone else feel the way you did in that moment.

@Cozy @mcc it's not a computer unless it has at least 2 USB ports. If it has only one, then it's merely a telephone.

Moderation should be aggressive and ruthless.

Err on the side of caution that reduces the most harm because bigots thrive on being given second chances.

Woke up today and WE HAVE AN ANSWER TO MY CHRONIC COUGH as well as another symptom I have that causes violent coughing.

I took a barium swallow test back on Friday, and the results show that there's "liquid penetration into my vocal cords." This matches with another symptom I've had of "a drip I can't swallow."

They're suggesting I see a speech therapist to finally solve this.

Finally, an answer. Now for the pinched nerve.

Any trans Kansas US citizen should, if able, obtain a passport reflecting their lived gender. The gender on your birth certificate or driver's license is irrelevant for passport purposes. The passport can be used in the place of the birth certificate in nearly every way. It can be used in place of state ID for nearly everything except demonstrating driving privileges. For instance, it can be used to prove lawful right to work in the USA.

There should be a Bedchel kind of test for the use of alack without also mentioning alas.
