I have a scar healing on my right knee from one of those garage door accidents you always hear about. I just realized it’s shaped like an “F,” and I can't help but wonder—could it be a supernatural sign? After all, the word that flew out of my mouth when my knee hit the door started with that very letter.

Yesterday, I picked up a new pair of glasses—my first with tortoiseshell frames. While reading, I’ve noticed the little flecks of light in the pattern can be a bit distracting. I’m sure I’ll get used to it. I got used to the floaters in my eyes, didn’t I? Funny thing is, I hadn’t even noticed them until an eye doctor pointed them out. Then, for a while, I couldn’t unsee them.

I may have mentioned that I don't like going anywhere and only leave the house out of necessity. All of my needs and wants are right here. Now I just mostly piddle around. Surprisingly, I left the house twice yesterday, once for an appointment and once to go to the store. In the olden days, you might have found me sitting at a bar nursing a beer in my off time. Did you know piddling and babbling are behaviors that complement each other? Piddling involves doing things just to keep busy. Babbling is talking aimlessly about nonsense, kind of what I'm doing now. But I have to go somewhere again this morning, so I need to fill this space quickly. Cheers ;-)
