  • Still Prolife?

    I consider myself prolife. The United States has laws against mutilation and murder. I believe that those laws should apply to the unborn. However I cannot in good conscience call terminating a one week old baby murder. I don’t think that the value of that child has risen to the level where an abortion provider…

  • Morning light

    I had a couple of beers before bed last night which might help explain why I’ve woken up so early this morning. I turned on my habit tracking app (Habitica) while I was eating some hard salami. The easiest thing on my daily list is to open the LDS library app. I read the verse…

  • Computers

    Name the most expensive personal item you’ve ever purchased (not your home or car). I suspect the most money I’ve ever spent is on one of my personal computers. Speed and memory cost a lot. I don’t know if my first computer and all the accessories was the most expensive adjusted for inflation in US…

  • Choir

    What was your favorite subject in school? Without a doubt, choir was my favorite subject in school. I was in two choir classes in my senior year of highschool and participated in an extracurricular choir after regular classes. I enjoyed singing in choir, singing and acting in musicals and plays, and singing solos for competitions.…

  • No Podcasts

    What podcasts are you listening to? I do not find the podcast format conductive to either learning or entertainment. I have occasionally listened to one for a few minutes, but not serially. I like media that involves interactions. I play video games and argue on social media because I am an active participant. I don’t…

  • Resignation

    I handed in my resignation letter to Walgreens this afternoon. I am going to stay until Christmas so I’m not leaving while staff is short. But after that I need to decompress, take stock of my life, and decide what really needs to be done next. I will miss a lot of coworkers but I’ve…

  • Thoroughly Thursday

    While working pharmacy last night I described today as my busiest day of the year. Several coworkers wanted an explanation. Thursdays are the day of the work week that for the past three and a half years we have packed all our doctor, therapist, counselor, social worker, and socializing appointments sometimes six months in advance.…

  • Screen Time

    How do you manage screen time for yourself? The fact is I’m awful about managing screen time. I started playing video games when I was eight. My parents didn’t buy me an Atari 2600 but they did let me play at the houses of friends who did. When the school started classes in computer programing…

  • Needing Time

    Do you need time? As Ford Prefect says in the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy movie, “Time is an illusion… Lunchtime doubly so.” Time is an inconvenience at 1:30 in the morning when I am scheduled to leave for work in exactly 12 hours. Time is a little more convenient when I’m actually working a…
