  • I like these new yellow highlighters at work. Sharpie, like the pink ones I've been preferring.

  • I don't like the current blue pencils on offer.

  • This cold morning was the second coldest on record for this date & this place.  Made me feel a little better about it.

  • I love my new coat.  It is zounds warmer than my old coat.  At least 2 zounds.

  • Looks like I'm gonna keep a chorus kid company, in the audience, during the fundraiser I feel too squicky about to perform in.  Feels like a solution.

  • The other fundraiser is in two days.  The Queertet one, 50 bucks a head.  I'm both anxious and excited.  I want to enjoy it.  I hope to enjoy it.  I plan to enjoy it.  I aim to enjoy it.

  • Some company is promoting about itself (on NPR) that it has made it is goal to change the fact that 70% of people with diabetes are living in cities.

  • I could really go for some caffeine now.  MUST REMEMBER FULL CONSEQUENCES.

Yeah, that bit about wanting to change the fact that 70% of people with diabetes are living in cities has been disturbing me, too. Do they propose shooting urban diabetics, or sending them to rural relocation camps? Or should more people with diabetes live in cities? It just makes no sense.

Reminds me of medical stories that quote grim statistics on the percentage of people who die of some cause. As a motivation for doing something about that cause. I'd like to ask a medical professional, "In a perfect world, what would everyone die from?"

Hahaha. Point taken! Maybe on some level we think that if we cure all the diseases that cause (earlier] death, we won't die at all.
