Does anything have you excited for next year?
Goodness. After how the summer and fall have gone, I have no at idea at all. We have some excitement next weekend. Thanksgiving and Christmas are probably going to be pretty tame considering my current situation, but I have zero idea.
There’s no Smoocon anymore, so January is free. I have a suspicion that the Beltway Swamp is due for a rather-nasty winter weather-wise. I am excited for the 250th anniversary of the US. Summer Olympics in LA could be great, but it could also be an absolute disaster given the politicians who are running SoCal.
(Aside: I’m listening to this TheFP livestream about what’s happening in Africa, especially Sudan, right now. The guy they’re interviewing has a very strong French accent, but his delivery is kind of somnambulant….)
So, back on topic, I really don’t have many things in particular in mind. If things don’t get straightened out with the money, I’ll look hard for a job. Maybe there’d be something there that’ll excite me. If the money gets straightened out, I will travel up to New Hampshire to see my oldest friend, then the three trips to see my mom.
I have little confidence politics will get any better; the politicians aren’t going to stop the out-of-control spending until the toner on the money printer runs out.
So I’ll be where I am reacting as I can.
Halfway point tomorrow. Still haven’t gotten fully on the workout schedule with my health, and travel.
