Book: Fahrenheit 451

I finished the older classic by Ray Bradbury Fahrenheit 451. It was quite good. Dystopian. (That’s a word I learned from Goodreads).

in this book, our future, the firemen don’t put out fires the fire hoses squirt kerosene and they burn the houses down when they find books inside the houses books are illegal. Our main character, a fireman named Montag, switches to the other side after he meets a woman who opens his eyes when he’s walking to work and apparently has been stashing books all the time. And then……

it is quite a good book, the only thing wrong with it is that it ended too soon.. I especially like the picture on the cover, the book / pack of matches. Quite clever!

Have a great day!

Duolingo Friends Quest

I always thought that a Friends Quest on Duolingo was where you added friends. So now I have 999 friends on Duolingo and can’t add anymore.

Recently found out that a friend’s Quest is when you and a friend work together to complete 20 lessons.

Normally I don’t care, I do my one lesson a day and maintain my streak. But I happen to know that Christy works at the local hardware store. She’s the one who told me what her friends Quest is. So now it’s one chance and 999 that we are paired up in a friend’s quest, but I don’t want her to have to do all the work. So I’m going to try to do at least 10 lessons in the next 4 days..

Have a great day!

I Want A New Phone

A Samsung Galaxy S24.. Want, not need. Want = obsessed with.

Maybe if I bought a new case for my S23, that would cure the obsession had a fraction of the cost.

Here are some Sunrise photos from this morning.

Happy Tuesday !

I Wish

That I could wake up feeling better than I did when I went to bed..

Sometimes?

Just once?

I think I woke up screaming last night. Not screaming scream, but Aaaaaahhhhh!. I woke myself up. Sleeping to me is horrible, full of nightmares and negativity. I always wake up feeling like crap. I need my morning yoga and meditation just to pull myself together enough to make it out the door. I don’t know what I did before yoga and meditation.

Then I get home from work exhausted, stay awake until I’m not tired anymore, then go to bed. Insane

Happy September 1st!

Sleep Score

I knew I went to bed a little earlier than usual yesterday, I wasn’t surprised that I woke up earlier than usual. But I felt like I was awake for hours, then fell asleep right before the alarm went off.

That seems like a nightly occurance. I’m asleep, but aware, and I think in my sleep that I’m awake. Then the alarm goes off and only then do I realize I was asleep.

But it’s not very restful.

Happy Friday ! I’m expecting my new sunglasses any minute now!

Coming Up With A Name

I want to start a Y12SR Meeting here in the Cayman Islands. I’m pretty ready, I’m looking for a place to have it and a name for the group. Below is a list I’ve made, felt really too happy with any of them.

Some of those above are just downright embarrassing, the list is a result of brainstorming ya know… Good ideas and bad., Somehow, I feel like I’m not even in the ballpark yet.

Yny Ideas?

Have a great day!

Perfectly Neutral

Its Tuesday, I don’t have a topic for today. Here’s a picture of Lenny. Followed by a picture I think is quite funny

. I’m feeling quite neutral today, not a good mood or bad. Perfectly neutral.

I’m interested to head into work, and see what the day holds in store. I’m taking my new laptop in to see if I can have some adjustments made.

Have a wonderful day!

Like A Fool

I bought a laptop last Friday It instantly wasn’t good enought, and the years old android tablet I have is far superior.

I still have a laptop I bought maybe 10 years ago, turned it on, it sucked, and I never really used it. 10-year-old new laptop. Now I have a 0-year-old new laptop to go with it.

I wonder if I can get my money back?

Happy Monday ! Have a good week!
