  168. My dad just sent me his final first draft of a book he wrote in the 2-3 years we've been estranged. It's some of the craziest space opera scifi I've read, but it's not fiction!

  169. Just thinking this morning about all my friends who lost someone they really loved this year, mainly in the last few months. & I'm not talking bout losing the same person. I'm talking about losing the many very important persons to their individual lives.

    November 20, 2020

  170. At the beginning of this pandemic, I realized quickly that I'd lose someone very close to me. That we all would. I wondered who that may be - maybe it would even be me. Here we are in the home stretch of 2020 & it's harder than ever.

  171. The only goal that matters for 2020 is to survive. To keep your sight laser pointed on the horizon, the covid-19 vanishing point, somewhere in 2021 or 2022 or if we really f things up 2023. To survive to get to that point. I hope I'll see you on the flipside.

  183. I have added a new morning dog activity: eye washing. Two rescue dogs with eyeball issues getting their eyeballs washed before I finish my first cup of coffee. I didn’t think I couldn’t make this more fun - but they both seem to appreciate their cleaner eyes.

  184. I'm pissed that people in this tech community I co-lead are willing to throw down $3-4k for teleconferencing system infrastructure, but are not willing to fund a diversity/inclusion person or someone to make the tech they build understandable to non-tech/insider people.

  187. I am reminded that we each have a different view of the world based on our biased perspective. Why is it so hard to accept that a diversity of views is our way through & enable that? So tired of being an alternate against the paradigm.

  211. It's heartbreaking to watch Shoog lose her sight in her right eye due to a cataract. I knew that was part of her future, but it doesn't make it any easier. Adopting older rescue dogs w/ health issues is not always easy, but enables me to give them the best care (& salmon) I can.
