Ubernerds and Time Math – Thoughts from July 26 and 30, 2023
July 26, 2023 I tried to type QWERTY on my swipe keyboard and it typed “Way”. I guess people don’t type QWERTY much. This Thoughts paper is being interrupted to bring you a special news bulletin. Patti just told me Sinead O’Connor just died. She was only 56. 53-year-old me thinks that’s way too young…

Blaring phones and Two Year Old Cats – Thoughts from July 24 and 25, 2023
July 24, 2023 I went into a break room to have my lunch and there was only one other person in there. The volume on her phone was blaring. I stood it as long as I could and asked her to turn it down. She was immediately rude and asked me why she should turn…

Never Seeing Quest Again – Thoughts from July 18, 2023
I just got a call at work from Patti about Quest. Quest was in our bedroom on the floor, and she couldn’t lift her head. Patti’s sister came over and they are going to take Quest to the vet. Patti and I dealt with this situation before. Sister (the cat) had the same thing happen…

Fantasy, Reality, and the Unreal – Thoughts from July 12 and 15, 2023
July 12, 2023 Listen up, people. I’ve got something to say. Just kidding. If I had something to say, I would just say it. I don’t like it when people introduce what they’re going to say. Patti does this quite often. She says, “I’m going to tell you something, but you have to promise not…

Water Damage, Tree Removal, and Video Issues – Thoughts from July 8, 2023
The other day, Patti and I noticed wet spots on our carpet in the den. We had problems with water leaking before, so we knew something was leaking. It’s the only time in my life when I wished it was a cat urinating. I checked the water heater and, sure enough, it was leaking and…

American Disfunctional Family – Thoughts from June 25 and 30, 2023
June 25, 2023 I’ve been back to work for two days now. I’m still feeling tired, itchy, puffy, and not quite back to normal. The one thing I didn’t miss while on vacation was my difficulty breathing at home. In bed, my office, and while watching TV, I’m surrounded by fur in the form of…

Goodbye Jamaica, Hello Miami Airport – Thoughts from June 21 and 22, 2023
June 21, 2023 Our last day here in Jamaica is here. We got up at 7:00 this morning. Tonight, we have to be in bed by 8:00 pm because we have to wake up at 4:00 am tomorrow. We have to have our luggage outside our room by 5:30 am and be out of our…

Jamaican Dreams, Crackers, and Endings – Thoughts from June 19 and 20, 2023
June 19, 2023 As I woke up in Jamaica this morning, I remembered two dreams. They seemed like one long dream, but I realized they were two separate dreams. The best titles for them would be Lazy Zombies and Flying Hamster Friend. I wrote them down so I could eventually develop them as stories. Perhaps…

Our Hermit Crab, Peacock, and Rooster Friends – Thoughts from June 16 to 18, 2023
June 16, 2023 It’s Friday and I think we all know what that means. Usually, it means grocery shopping at home, but today it’s vacation shopping. Patti is looking for a bag for the cat sitter and guardian of our girls while we’re here in paradise. We lost water this morning before we could shower.…

Operation Jamaican Vacation: The Anniversary Part – Thoughts from June 13 to 15, 2023
June 13, 2023 Day two of operation Jamaican vacation, but it feels like day one. We were too tired to vacation yesterday. I had a dream where I was petting a seal. This was probably from me missing Luna laying on top of me and our daily rubbing exercise. I rub her and she tries…
