Relatable

I've never been a morning person. The daily grind forced me into at least minimally functioning in the morning.

When I've been out of work, I tend to become a night person. That's not to say I'm out partying or anything like that; it's just that I tend to function better at night.

Or at least that's the way it was when I was younger. Nowadays I'm usually passed out on the sofa shortly after dinner and in bed for realz between 10 and 11 pm, even on the weekends.

However, if I'm actively engaged in something, I can easily stay up well past midnight and remain fully awake.

Of course, even if I go to bed at 2, I'm still wide awake at 6:30 am…another lovely byproduct of getting older.

I Could Live There

A little small for more than one person, but it could still work…

This actually reminds me a lot of the first project I worked on when I moved to Tucson in 1980. It was a long, narrow lot that was zoned multi-family, and the architect I worked for had designed three separate townhouses for the property.

I always liked the layout of the units. Sadly I don't have the original plans any more, but once upon a time I did a "beach house" design based off the original layout, and surprisingly I do still have that:

I Have To Remind Myself…

…that unless it's already built into your genes, a body of this requires a lot of work to get and maintain. And I have never had the time, energy, or inclination to do that work.

But that doesn't mean I can't or don't admire the men who do. Obviously.

How to Deal With Phone Scammers

I happened upon a genius way of dealing with phone scammers, i.e. "The Office of VISA and Mastercard" et. al.

Go ahead and actually let the bot connect you with one of those scammer sweatshops in Delhi. When they start asking questions, just start spouting random words. It confuses the hell out of them. I kept one of them on the phone for over ten minutes this morning until I got bored and hung up. (That was ten minutes he couldn't scam someone else.)

If you're in a particularly snarky mood and they call, give it a try. It's fun!

I Was Really Hoping

I was really hoping that we'd never have to hear another peep out of that loser, but apparently that will only happen when he's six feet under.

So Apparently…

…the little piece of human filth has a "hit list" of people he's going to be suing for having called him a murderer. That includes politicians, news and media personalities like Whoppie Goldberg, Cenk Uyhur, and Joe Biden. Joe Biden.

Good luck with that, you pathetic little shit.

All I have to say is…

And by the way, you are a murderer.
