Thoughts are often inharmonious, turning round in a burrowing restlessness that can be likened to a little crab turning until it buries itself in the coolness of damp sand.
Why do people want you to be multifunctional and do two or three things at the once. I’m very focused and I don’t appreciate having my attention diverted to other projects or issues. Just leave me alone with “whatever” and I’ll do the best job ever with it, when I’m finished then give me something else. I don’t need distractions and don’t do well with them.

I agree with this one. I feel for the plight of some of these folks but when they get certain benefits that are not available to other US Citizens, that's when I have an issue.
My desktop pc is ill. I went in to the room to check out several things, tapped the keyboard to wake up the pc and only the fan was blowing air. The monitor is ok and working, however nothing is displayed as the hard drive only spins to load memory to the motherboard. No basic load showing the initializing, not even a blue screen.
^^ I'm taking it in today, however I can use the backup laptop for now. It's good to have a spare
I think the power supply went out in the base, seems that there's nothing happening now not even the blower fan in on. At first the fan was working but after a longer than normal boot time I had to power off the pc, the Ctl + Alt + Del wasn't affective, the monitor was without display, and thus I was forced to pull the plug on it, afterward when I turned the power back on - {nothing}. It was about 7 years old, like a member of the family, too young to die.
The pc doctor was looking at it today after I dropped it off. I'm hopeful that its only the power supply and not the motherboard. I'll find out tomorrow when they finish their checkup. My laptop is working ok, however I don't enjoy it as much as the desktop unit. I like a real keyboard and a large monitor.
Wow it was hot today at 110 and tomorrow it's going to get to 114. Time for more ice and wine.
