I will be eating mince but I don’t know exactly how yet. Might combine with rice and beans?
Also I will be finishing a big task at work which will get my juices boiling.
I feel like I am on the cusp of a truly great execution of my first frittata
Here is a limerick by Alan Watts(?)
There was a young man who said though, It seems that I know that I know But what I would like to see is the I that knows me When I know that I know that I know

Aw nice I’m sure it will work out. One time I replaced a water valve in a washing machine for like $12 when my housemate wanted us to all pony up for $600 for a new one. I still feel pride. Hope you get that satisfaction.

Doing some computer stuff. I like the computer. You can get into shenanigans territory if you don’t treat it like a potential mess though.

It’s similar to a question that doctors will ask you in the emergency department: “who is the president?”

Yes. I wrote a script to make me green even though my employer doesn’t give a shit because I want the peace of mind even though I’m in your situation.
This micromanagement via surveillance is counterproductive any way you slice it. The peace of mind script makes me more valuable to my employer even though it might be inconsequential.
