Hi bud! Good morning 
I was about in my late twenties, early thirties, when I got most of my tattoos.

Well my phone wonāt hold a charge anymore. It only lasted a year. Luckily I can buy a new one for $25.
So today I am going to do some grass cutting and maybe weed whip a little. Soon as my Coca-Cola is finished Iāll get outside. Was gonna go help dad clean a cabin but he sounded like he really doesnāt need me anyways. Itāll just take him a little longer without my niece or me today.
Saw a disgusting FB video of a black person beating the crap out of a white person with brass nuckles. Just a random act of violence and maybe even a hate crime but itās great that it was filmed though doubtful weāll see it on the news.
Minneapolis looks like a great place to stay away from. Iām about a 130 miles north of there thank heavens.

Phone user serviceability sucks ass now. Theyāre made to die. You need special tools to open em up now.
This happened around the time Samsung S4 came out. The S5 after that was all locked up, you couldnāt change the LCD without de-adhering it. Then they stopped letting you access the battery.
Planned obsolescence is ā ā ā ā .

Iām too poor to own excel. Donāt even need it just use open office/libre office, but itās nice to own and use in case. I donāt like the whole MS thing like subscription or experation thing. Itās BS. They have coursera and edx courses on excel and data science and crap. Itās a useful skill to have especially in finance/actuarial work and VBA type crap. I only know basics to moderate use. Iām no expert.
Iām getting my good feelings back. Symptoms are miniscule also.
Itās mostly Daliy Essential Nutrients, I think.
Like I feel a mild amount of pleasure right now. Not manic. Also no drugs.
Brain feels pretty OK.

I remember my mom telling me about the actuary field when I was at college and me thinking this sounds like ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā , never heard of it, and sounded hard. I wanted to be an Ibanker, but now Iām thinking if I ever recover from schizophrenia enough I will try and be an actuary. That or something close to it. They get paid well and get good benefits. Iām pretty good at math, but Iām no genius.
Back then I was also interested in trading.
My AC stopped working last night around 8pm and it got so hot in here.
But I just got it fixed! Yesssss
Now I can relax

I was thinking about asking you if you were anywhere close to there. Good that you are away from Minneapolis.

up for another day.
not much doing today, maybe iāll get around to cleaning the kitchen.
went to town, got me a diet coke.
my nephew is here, weed eating dadās property. dad pays him $25 bucks to do it. it takes him about an hour. i told dad i would do it for a beer and dinner, but he has my nephew do it. my nephew is a good kid, heās taking his studies seriously now that he is in high school, āand it matters nowā he says. he wants to be an engineer and go to purdue university. heās a good kid. will be driving soon, he turns 16 next month, in indiana you have to wait 3 months after you turn 16 to take your driverās test.
3 days until we hit the road. was talking to mom yesterday about hiking, and she said we might go to boulder, colorado and get a hike in. hope so. we will only be there 2 or 3 days. mom found someone to come water her plants while she is away, she has done a nice job on her landscape garden. she has some red flowers blooming right now, not sure what they are, they look good.
dad got my nephew his tent this morning. so we will have something to give him on his birthday. my sister just redid her yard in denver, and now the kids can play in it. they put down sod, and put in a sprinkler system, also put in a new fence, and painted their house. they are slowly improving their place, but she is on a budget. sheās stays home with the kids, and isnāt in a hurry to go back to work. she worked for about 10 years after college, as a personal trainer. but last time i talked to her, she didnt really like it.

Well I got the mowing done. Dad must have my favorite weed whipper. Itās a Stihl and itās a decent runner. I need to use the gas one to cut down the thick stuff around the garages and where we split wood. Dad and I donāt want to beat up our new electric one for that type of work.
Donāt know if I will be going anywhere today. Maybe by sunset Iāll go birding at the state park. Probably not a whole lot moving around at high noon. Hmm. Itās windy out so now I think I am going to take my remote control sailboat to the park and just sit in the shade and boat lazily for a couple hours.

I was thinking the other day how I would love having a job being a librarian for the CIA and their documents.
I imagine you would need a top secret security clearance, if such a job even exist.

Ya know I wouldnāt doubt such a position exists. But in a weird sorta way Iād be scared to see all the dirt they probably have on a lot of people. You see on some TV shows where they warehouse giant crates just full of stuff. It would be neat too.

iāve thought about being a librarian in the past. my local community college offers a 2 year degree, in library science. working for the CIA would be intense though. that reminds me of that movie, āthe reportā where he goes through documents at the cia.

Myself included. Donāt know if I would have the stomach to get a masterās in library science. In small towns you can be a library director with a bachelorās degree.

Oh I know! I would love to look at all the UFO documents. 
@Lifer, I imagine working an administrative job for them would be more easy going than being a field agent.
But youāre probably right. Any job for the CIA is probably intense lol.
I worked administration in the military, and we handled a lot of important information. I was also security monitor, which I loved doing more than my assigned duties.
