I was supposed to go to bed at least two hours ago. I have to get up in three! And I didn't even complete all the things I need to complete before 4:30am! Argh! My mind is racing on all the things I'm going to have to scramble to do before 5:30 when I need to leave. Life... amirite? 😅😲😕😥😬😴

I've been at my current employer for 23 years (full time) as of today.
This is not a contest or even a comparison, I am genuinely curious:
- How long have you been at your current employer?
and/or
- What's the longest you've worked somewhere?
🤔
Spent last week out in the Seattle area of a conference. I had never been. I liked it a lot! Felt like some of the best things I like about Michigan, but rather than being spread out across the entire state, it was all in a 20 mile radius. The greens, the big city, the water, the hills, the construction...
What's everyone think about Seattle? Am I nuts? I liked it!
Gun violence or threats of gun violence is the new "snow day" anymore here in East Lansing.
What are we doing to our kids? Sigh. 😕
This has been the longest February in the history of Februaries.
Long ago I was a HUGE bball fan. And, nowadays, if I had/have my choice of sports games to attend or watch on TV, it'd definitely still be basketball! But, still, I haven't really paid attention for quite a long time. Since the Pistons last won the NBA Championship. So 2003 I think?
Anyway, I caught the news that LeBron is now the all time leading scorer, which I think is amazing! But I had to have a laugh at the fact that the Lakers apparently now play at the "Crypto.com Arena"
Yes it's been named that for a year and change, that is how out of touch I am. But, still... That's just so, so hilarious. And sad. And funny. And sad. Hahaha. I'm still just sitting here chuckling over it!
Regardless, if you're into basketball, you've probably seen it since last night, but real cool photo attached in the Yahoo article below!
...Crypto.com Arena... Lmao
I think the below list is pretty good even if you aren't a father.
Do you have anything that you do for yourself with some regularity? Something to "Treat Yo'self" even?
If you don't "stop and smell the roses" so to speak, you should. Life's hard!

The... paint(?) on my laptop keys is wearing off. I've never had this happen on a laptop before in my life. Right now I have a backlit letter 'D' and a backlit letter 'N'
It seems silly to call in warranty work for this. Especially knowing that at some point in the near future a couple/few other keys are going to start doing the same thing.
I don't even know why these two letters either! It started with 'N' - that's not even on the home row! I could see maybe 'D' and 'K.' I dunno. It's weird. What am I doing [wrong]?
I wish this could be studied somehow!
Yo, this is surreal!

Just finished watching High Flying Bird on Netflix. A real dialog driven film! I like movies like that! What are some real dialog heavy films you like? Movies with not a lot of action.
A few others of mine: The Big Kahuna, My Dinner with Andre, Glengarry Glenn Ross, 12 Angry Men
Also, I didn't realize High Flying Bird was directed by Steven Soderberg. Just realized that as I was typing this out.
