    How awesome my director at work is. He just surprised everyone in the office with the gift of new Airpods Pros. It was like Santa came early! And fwiw, the noise cancelling on these things is absolutely amazing. I'm really surprised that buds can actually work this well for noise cancelling.

    ^pro parenting tip: if being home with the kids outside of regular school days is a pain, have them catch covid and isolate this week, so they don't catch it later when school is back up. Hehe.

    That’s easy for YOU to say.

    I have the lyrics to Puscifer‘s Grand Canyon in my brain this morning. 

    “One among infinity, calm in this humility, hope as far as one can see, witnessing the majesty…standing on the edge of forever.”

    thanks GG. it's really a weird feeling. I mean, the friend that texted me is an old friend that I haven't seen in years (but we chat online), the friend that passed is someone I hadn't seen since I surprised him on his birthday 7 years ago (but we talked online here and there). But I still feel incredibly sad. I feel kind of guilty for feeling this upset about it. Not sure why. 

    Maybe the shock, since you expect this from the unhealthy and the "sad". He was one of the happiest people I know who loved life, and not just "online happy". actually happy.
