Got Anything Random To Say

Sometimes, I wish Mr. Rogers was still alive so I can talk to him about how I feel. He would have been a great therapist.

I think I'm going to change my major , but the years that would add on....

*Meanwhile Feyokien continues to give out pure comedy gold in pop culture references that no one gets. The rain continues to fall*

I just got home from the supermarket.
Epic stuff happened.

So, the cashier lady was talking to this guy really loudly, laughing, social about football (soccer), and I just put my stuff on the conveyor belt while she was talking, she even did the cashiering while talking.
I had my baseball cap drawn really into my face, the top of it almost touching my eyebrows, and all I wanted was pay, get my stuff and go.
And then she suddenly goes like "say something [though]" and I look at her and she's looking at me trying to see my eyes below my cap.
I had been focusing on my stuff and answered truthfully with a slightly surprised voice: "I wasn't even listening [though]".
She didn't react to that.

On the most sincere level Earthling, like yourself I try not to be noticed and carry out my tasks with little or no troubles, however such does not always occur..

Everything was fine until I turned two. And then, my whole world fell apart...

The most disheartening thing about programming is when you spend ages writing a really well written piece of code that does a truly clever, amazingly smart function/feature and you demonstrate said working function/feature to someone and they just go, "Yeah, that's good."

People have come to just accept and expect programs to do these things and have NO IDEA the level of complexity that is involved behind the scenes to make these things work. They just take it for granted.

Occasionally, I like to 'force' users to take a walk through codeland just to show them what's involved behind the scenes and just what it takes to get some of these things to work the way they work. They're GOBSMACKED! They have no idea! They don't want to know and quite rightly, don't need to know.

Who's Mr. Rogers?

My condolences - I know the feeling but life gets better - and worse - and better - and worse.

That's the way life goes. It ebbs and flows.

Enjoy the good times and roll with the bad, knowing that they will soon pass.

Life can reach a state of bliss. Mine has at 48 but I had to go through some REALLY ROUGH times to get here. But it's worth the ride so hang on.

Had to go get some supplies from town.
This is where I miss Alex
Had to make something like a twelve point turn in the Landcruiser to get out of the bottlo car park.

I went to the hairdressers this morning and had a perm.

Fred Rogers, from the children's show Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood. I mentioned him because I am going through a lot (mostly depression) right now and even as an adult, I find his gentle demeanor soothing and reassuring.

^ I agree. I watched his show as a kid back in the day as well. Great person.

When I was a kid, I used to have vege sangas literally every day for lunch (for years) to the point where even my mother said, "Aren't you getting sick of them?" - NOPE

Just because something does not exist, does not mean that it is not real.
Most people rarely see things that do not exist.
It is even rarer still that they speak of them.

What shall I have for dinner?
