Thought for the day: “I thought growing older would take longer.”

Reading the news this morning, it’s pretty much all “same bad things happening as yesterday”. War, political crimes, people being jerks and criminals, stories about celebrities that no one should care about. Nothing inspirational. And it’s a gray, gloomy day outside, mirroring my internal state.

I have some technical writing I need to do today that should distract me from the negative vibe. I woke up in the middle of the night, composing some of the text that I previously thought was difficult. I love it when the sleeping, subconscious mind solves problems for me. It happens often.

Meanwhile, here’s a dragon from last week’s nighttime Louisville Zoo outing.
