Then, "Sector 6 is a problem, though, because they've got missiles.

Potential overthrow of the government?

And the guards resurrect."

...or not! That's awesome!

22 of the Calculated Fields I have created in this excel file over the last few days have self-destructed. I don't think I hav eit in me to start fixing all that today.

Oh no, -t! That sounds terrible.

For my part, I have gotten my hair did and it is the weekend.

I'm mostly packed and my flight doesn't leave until 5 pm tomorrow! But I was fretting about it enough that I skipped my swim.. on balance, though, it was for once better for my mental health to do so. And I have Druid tomorrow!

I think I've settled on what I want to do my free Sunday in Anchorage: rent a bike for the day. There's a great paved costal trail, fairly flat, that looks lovely. I haven't been on a bike in ages, so easy is important. But a bike will let me sorta follow my whims. Don't know if my brother and fam will be interested, but I'm content o just go my own. I have another 7 days with the lot of them!

That sounds like a good plan, sarameg.

Yay weekend! I think I will make it be my weekend a little earlier than is strictly correct because otherwise I will have to wrestle with Excel more and just no.

My flight home was in the evening yesterday, and the desert summers are known for thunderstorms in the afternoon. None were in our flight path, but watching lightning and heavy rain in the distance was very cool.

At the end of the meal, the chief strategist looked down at the mess and nodded. "This was very successful. I approve of this method of feeding myself."

I endorse this plan of action!

Gud, you are a wonderful guy and you deserve to know that's true, and to know that those who love you see you that way. Other folks here have said it better than I could, but especially this

Gud, you need to take care of yourself. You're a wonderful person, and you deserve to be happy. You also deserve not to worry that you're not doing enough (because you ARE), and you especially deserve not to constantly worry what your wife will be mad at you for this time.

I've always found it hard to be able to put myself outside my feelings and recognize when I'm acting or feeling a certain way that's influenced by depression. I'm getting better at it just through sheer repetition, but it's hard, because the thoughts are coming from inside the house.

And in mememe, my apologies all for being AWOL for so long. I have been having a hard time with my priorities lately

That sounds awesome, sarameg!

I am going camping with friends tomorrow. We are supposed to leave at 9:30AM and still aren't sure who is driving, bringing a tent, who has a sleeping bag, etc. Luckily it is (a) car camping and (b) one night.
