CEO in 2020s

Tom’s out getting his flu and COVID shots, and I’m going to take my chances this year. I’m not out enough and exposed to enough people to be worried about it. Then again, I did catch the norovirus, but still, I think I’ll be okay. COVID’s been around for nearly half a decade now and it hasn’t affected me yet.

After a few wonderful days of energy, I’m kind of tired today. I didn’t expect the magic to last forever, though. I kept waking up a lot. It seems I had a nightmare at one point that I don’t remember, and it took me a few minutes to get back to sleep.

The thing is that clonazepam isn’t recommended for chronic use because you can become too used to it, and it can affect memory. I looked, and there are other options to help you fall asleep and stay asleep. So I’ll ask Rhonda about these things the next time I talk to her.

Given that I am in a great mood despite being tired today, and the fact that my nose is better, I’m wondering once again just how helpful the spell I recently did may be. It seems like it might be a lot more helpful than I ever thought it would be because, while clonazepam can help with sleep and some of the fatigue, it can’t help with nasal issues. However, as Tom pointed out, anxiety has a way of affecting all kinds of things, so who knows for sure? It’s still quite an interesting coincidence either way.

I brought my Tumblr account up to sync in the same way the other three platforms I use are up to date. I just wish Blogger would allow multiple security levels for posts instead of being all or nothing. Unless I make the blog private—which I don’t want to do—I can’t have any private stuff over there.

One of the things I like about Tumblr, which I didn’t know before, is that rather than limit how much space you can have, they limit posts to 250 a day. Since I never post that much, I don’t have to worry about decorating entries with pictures if I want to, which adds a little flair and color to the text. Who doesn’t like animals and nature anyway? The only thing I don’t like about Tumblr is that it’s not easy to locate old entries to edit.

I’m still not sure how often I want to update PB. I’m just hesitant to do much on a site still known for tech issues. At this point, I’m thinking I might update Blogger and Tumblr daily, LJ weekly, and PB monthly.

I was thinking of the case of the killing of the UnitedHealth CEO, and while it’s a horrible thing, I kind of get where the shooter was coming from. I’d like to say I hope it sends a message to other greedy insurance CEOs that, hey, this could be you. You could be next if you put money over people’s lives. But most people think they’re invincible.

I also saw a news article not too long ago where an older white woman shot a young Black mother. Of course, they had to bring race into it instead of saying one woman shot another woman because the unruly brats that she wouldn’t control were driving her crazy. More than likely, race had nothing at all to do with it, just like it never did in my case. People choose to make things about what they’re not about—especially in a race-obsessed country that favors minorities.

Anyway, I really hope that cold-hearted bitch in Arizona saw that and realized it could have been her. Not that I’ve ever been some gun-toting psycho or that I would ever even think of killing somebody just because they pissed me off, but I just wonder if she realizes how lucky she was only to get words she didn’t like.

Anyway, because I was tired today, I’m going to take a whole pill once again before bed rather than a half. The first two nights I took a whole pill, but last night I only took a half.

Been having fun searching for golf balls. They reorganized the lobby, where they put all the balls from each of the courses into its own little cubbyhole. I’m going through the courses one by one and collecting any I haven’t found yet. I pause the game, open the browser right there in the headset, go to YouTube, and pull up a lost ball tutorial for the courses where I don’t have them all yet.
