Hey There!
It's 8:37 AM EST, ☁️ Overcast, 47°F, Humidity 81%, Wind 13 mph NE
When I took my meds this morning, I looked at the box and realized I hadn't taken my meds in the past three days. Nothing happened. Makes you wonder.
After yesterday's morning routine sans pills, I went for a walk for the first time in quite a while. I did not go far, a mile at most, just a lap around the walking path. I continue to try and not exhaust myself with any one task. It was pleasant, even though the sky was overcast, and there weren't many people in the park.
When I returned I had some breakfast and then had an interview for my podcast. It was a nice conversation with a local music producer. Following that, I came upon an article talking about the current controversy with the security web service Proton. Apparently the CEO shot his mouth off about AI writing the code for their products, and the SHTF.
I use the products, so I had to investigate. Long story short, I am staying with Proton for a number of reasons, not the least of which is I just paid for a year-long subscription. I've been making major migrations in my web services, and I'm a little tired of chasing down every flaw. My research told me there was really nothing wrong with the product at the moment, so I'm sticking with Proton. I also spent some time looking over and thinking about switching browssers to Vivaldi, but since it's Chromium-based, I'd rather not. This is all a game I can't really win.
I spent some time chatting about this with a colleague, and we ended up sounding like Statler and Waldorf from the Muppets - two old guys shouting at clouds.
I fought the urge to nap at 4 PM while watching yesterday's Sidetrack Adventure video, which was tame compared to his others. I'm also tracking the winter storm that is supposedly bringing snow, but it's going to be a nothingburger in this area. For dinner DW cooked up some squash-sweetpotato-apple soup with a grilled cheese sandwich. Pretty good!
In the evening I managed to get in two movies. I found this web site which appears to be nothing but links to free movies on the web. Great find! I watched a Humphrey Bogart film titled Tokyo Joe, and then a Walter Matthau film called Hopscotch, featuring a young and classy Glenda Jackson. That was a nice way of spending the evening - better than YouTube!
I cleaned up the kitchen and went to bed at 11:22 PM.
That's all for now. 'Til We Meet Again!
