Worry in life is very much like a rear-view mirror when driving.

Oh sure, it can be very handy from time to time when changing lanes but most of the time, there isn't a damn thing you can do about what you see in it. And it can distract you from watching the road directly in front of you.

My Favorite Randy Rainbow of all time.

If you don't find this fabulous and funny, I'm probably not someone you want to follow.

Please Note:

I'm just a person on the internet.

Don't take ANYTHING I say as truth or fact on my say so alone.

Certainly, don't base your life choices on my CoSo dribbling!

That is all, carry on!

Do you want to know more about me?

You can hear me give a PodCast interview telling you about my past.

The Good, The Bad and The Drunk Slutty.

I broke my fridge shelf.
See? This is what happens when you clean!

If you read/see/hear it online first, assume it's misinformation and work from there.

If the story interests you go check out multiple sources. If it doesn't interest you, move along and dismiss it.

This is the only way to stay sane in the 21st Century imo

Good Morning CoSo.

It's work in the office day again.

Working in the office is totally voluntary on my part, and I'm only doing it one day a week (Tuesdays) but it is nice to get out of the house and see other humans besides my husband.

Oh, and I bring my dog into work, so there is that. For Lunch we go for a walk, in downtown Orlando around Lake Eola. So it's a fun day all the way around.

Good morning (for me) CoSo and my fellow CoSojourners.

Who's ready for another week?

"Son, 4 years ago we were using freezer trucks as morgues and wiping our asses with coffee filters. Anyone who says we were better off then is a certified window licker."

Take section 26 of the complaint:

"For example, the iPod did not achieve widespread adoption until Apple developed a crossplatform version of the iPod and iTunes for Microsoftโ€™s Windows operating system, at the time the dominant operating system for personal computers. In the absence of the consent decree in United States v. Microsoft, it would have been more difficult for Apple to achieve this success and ultimately launch the iPhone."

Iโ€™m not really here. ๐Ÿคฃ BUT I HAD TO SHARE THIS.

Shhhh!!!!

So yesterday I reached the half-way point in Three-Body Problem and had to decide, do I continue with this book, or do I switch over to John Scalzi's The Android's Dream

That book starts with a human diplomat causing an interplanetary incident by farting insults in front of an alien diplomat...

I started reading The Android's Dream.

We'll see if I ever get back to Three Body...
