When I lay down at night I think of all sorts of witty, complex things to write in the morning. By the time I wake up, they're gone. I need to start drafting these things right before going to bed maybe to capture all the wit and reflection so I don't end up with posts saying 'hurp dee durp'.

B and I read an article yesterday that got us into a very cool discussion about the state of the world. It was talking about how once again some baby boomer was complaining about technology. This time their wrath was aimed at things like Alexa and Google home. Let me summarize it for you:

"durr hburr! Technology Bad! Fire Scary! Edison was a witch!"

Look, I am sorry if your tiny feeble brain can't keep up. Just because YOU don't understand or can't see the broader application of a technology does not mean it's ruining today's youth. The irony of course is lost on them of how their parents swore rock n roll was the devil and all the tech of their days was ruining them. Fucking old people. Just die off already. Adapt or die bitches, adapt or die.

Worked on some issues for clients. One was fine, the other was fucking annoying. For the record, she is a baby boomer who doesn't want to learn anything but wants someone to do the work for her. I send her a sample solution and she complains because I didn't give her step by step instructions. Fuck off lady. I sent you a solution, break it apart. Non-analytical minds shouldn't be in analytical positions.

Also started work on a new class. I have three days to get it fleshed out and mostly done. I want to do the bulk today so I can goof on Thursday and Friday. At least Friday.

Worked with a framer and the people in Vegas on getting a framing job repaired. Wait, did I even tell you about our new HP poster? The place where we buy them had a new one come in and they emailed me while we were in Australia asking if we wanted it. 10 signatures, HPDH1 and 2, single poster. Um yeah we want it. Unfortunately it arrived with some damage to the frame. They are shipping a frame to a local framer and paying to have it redone for us. Spent some time on the phone and in email getting that arranged.

Leftovers for dinner. Same tonight. Marinated steaks for tomorrow.

Bed around 10:30.
