As far as the war goes, I kind of feel like one of the followers of Miller, and the Great Disappointment. (And this is really leading me down a path&#8230;.). The Rams won the Super Bowl.  I was really not that upset this way or the other.  I don&#8217;t really like the Rams&#8217; schema; &#8212; 3-4 Defense, West Coast offense, etc., but I&#8217;m still happy they[re back in LA\/<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>March<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Obviously, biggest thing was <a href=\"https:\/\/control-h.org\/?cat=27\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Shmoocon<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I had a good time, but I&#8217;m really not up to do that sort of thing anymore.  I&#8217;m happy that the unanimity of thought that was there, say, 2009-ish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do the math, and show your fucking work.  When someone reviews it years later, if it shows to be complete nonsense, that should be a point for self-reflection.  Apologies;  I&#8217;m distracted by the <em>Marvelous Mrs. Maisel<\/em> speech before the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I guess I&#8217;m really bothered by certitude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>April<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More stupidity from the new LP overlords.  Preparation for medical tests.  Lots of work. Following the start to the saga of my mother moving back to her hometown.  (As I write this in November, I&#8217;m actually on the train headed down there again&#8230;)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>May<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Medical exam&#8230;clean.  Good for three more years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>June<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some work certitude until February, so breathe a little easier.  The only thing I wrote about what following the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/control-h.org\/?p=3851\" target=\"_blank\">shitshow<\/a> with the Libertarian National Convention.  My initial reactions have proved correct, and I&#8217;ve withdrawn further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>July<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I gave in to the compulsion to write ian the moth before my birthday.  I felt like I had a few things to say.  I was also minaking my first trip to deal with the mess surrounding my mother&#8217;s situation.  And pick up the dog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>August<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lots of work, new dog adjustments, birthday.  The steaks my wife cooked for my birthday were amazing.  A coupon of notables &#8212; <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/control-h.org\/?p=3893\" target=\"_blank\">very long survey<\/a> that I think was from about 1999.  My original answers are in, with my updated ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>September<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reading, now that I&#8217;m in the hotel room (please see back later when I give more details about the shit show that&#8217;s happened so far&#8230;.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>October<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thirteenth wedding anniversary.  Four-day weekend as a bachelor with my wife and dog down visiting her parents.  It&#8217;s incredible the feelings I have my wife;  I didn&#8217;t think that sort of thing was at all possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>November<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m out of town. I tried to write this before en route to my destination.  I&#8217;m in a hotel room, which was not the plan, but it&#8217;s adjusting on the fly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Describe your year to date.
