Sometimes my head just starts thinking.  This thinking can head down many paths, and frequently calculations are involved.  I don’t know why, they just are.  In one recent brainwave activity pattern, I realized that one day you’re 25 years old, and then the next week you are 45.  That is almost how the decades happened— …Read More

I’m interrupting some of my CampFI sequential thought-posts for this out-of-nowhere surprise. I guess I’ve been out-and-about, and irresponsibly breathing around. So, the crowns attacked me.  I can’t believe with all my healthy lifestyle activities and my double-dose vaccine barrier, that the little crown viruses attached themselves to me and broke through my defenses.  I …Read More
