Sometimes you gotta do and see something, but not for the usual big reasons. Sometimes you need to up and see things just ‘cuz.
And here it is, a pomegranate. Just ‘cuz.
You need to see #36

1) Woke up. Got out of bed. Dragged a comb across my head. Showered, because cleanliness is a virture.
2) So is getting up. It’s important to get up, especially if you run the mile. As of press time, no one, man or woman, has won the mile race without getting of bed. I have no plans to compete in such a race. But it’s nice to know that if chose to do so, I could run my heart out.
3) Dressed casual. I was fit for society.
4) And I went out! For eye therapy. I dodged people so adeptly that a Hall of Fame running back would be jealous.
5) Went over finances.
6) Didn’t fight Verizon(tm) and Yahoo(tm). Maybe tomorrow. Of sure, I cussed a bit at them in the comfort of my office, but it was mostly perfunctory.
7) Oh, not to worry, I came back from eye therapy. I walked both ways. Go me.
9) I made rosemary olive oil soap.
10) It didn’t turn out well. There was much wailing and gnashing of teeth.
11) Got out my spice grinder and ground the heck of the fresh rosemary. Atomized it, really.
12) Performed multiple experiments on better ways of making Rosemary Olive Oil soap.
12) Made another batch. I’m praying that it will come out right.
13) Chatted briefly with Iceland and Paraguay. They agreed to postone their border dispute until I had more time to mediate. I expect a quick resolution as the two nations do not share a border.
14) Too tired to cook dinner. One of the natives is going out for chicken. Yay.
Behave yourselves.

3) Dressed casual. I was fit for society.
4) But didn’t go out. It’s too peoply out there.
5) Went over finances.
6) Spent hours failing to deal with an email issue arising from a misbegotten union between Verizon(tm) and Yahoo(tm).
7) Cussed a lot. Verizon, can you hear me know.
8) Worked on a family Christmas picture.
9) Wrote letters to our six sponsored children abroad. Sent them Christmas gifts.
10) Took a long relaxing fizzy bath. I’m really clean.
11) Read from the highly enjoyable bath book, Mary’s Land.
12) Watched an episode in the lecture series, “Foundations of Western Civilization.”
13) Noticed that the Earth was upside down.
14) Turn it rightside up again.
15) Reasoned that my hypothesis in 14) was faulty. It was only perceived to be upside down. Many would have thought it was rightside up in the first place.
16) Thought it best to return things to their original state, by turning it downside up. Sorry, if I made you dizzy. Let this be a lesson in humility for me. On the plus side, people in both hemispheres got to see constellations they never would have otherwise.
17) Made sausages and beans for dinner.
Behave yourselves.

10) Ruthlessly extirminated errors in a financial spreadsheet.

13) Noticed that the Earth was coming apart.

Behave yourselves.

You get overwhelmed. You get crabby. You see nothing in the big picture to relieve the gloom in your future.
You need to take a step back. You need to look at the present. You need to look at the little picture.
Specifically, a picture of little kids going back to school.
Ponder their adorable little faces. Seeing these children brightens the future oh so much.
Your heart while not quite soaring like a hawk, flits here and there like a butterfly.
You are no longer in your future. You are in a happy now.

You might think that supermarkets only carry food, but you’d be oh so wrong.
You might believe that they stock only food and vitamins, but you’d be wrong.
Warmer, but still wrong.
If you haven’t looked in all the aisles in your local supermarket, you might be missing the following exciting product.
It has MACA! And it’s vegetarian!
It’s really nice to know that the cannabis movement is finally providing weed to horny goats. Soon, all goats will be able to purchase weed openly.
Oh my!
