… Fiona restless last night, up and pacing on the bedroom floor, i exposed my feet and she gave me a thorough foot cleaning, it kept her busy… didn’t sleep as well as i would have liked to… i believe she is going into heat…

… coffee made, animals attended to, my first half hour spent researching and purchasing an ergonomic mouse, i found a very popular one with high ratings on Amazon… it is a vertical mouse that holds the hand in a more handshake sort of orientation… hoping it will help with shoulder and neck pain issues that i have begun to think are related to mousing…

… i check to see if my Dark Matter book is getting any closer to delivery… i find out that it has left a postal facility in Connecticut which means it’s on its way to Beacon, or some facility near Beacon and then Beacon… looking forward to seeing it, trying to decide if i will purchase multiple copies or not… i have cash on hand and i am wondering the best use of that cash to further my photography…

… i am getting increasingly behind on posting my NOAP writings… wondering how, where, what to publish, wondering if i can make it more attractive to read, look at, if i can drive more traffic to my website, if i care if there are more eyes on my website… really, do i care?… should i care?… i keep telling myself that i am resisting the market capitalist imperative that one drive as much attention to themselves or their company as possible, that this is what success is built on… but this is egocentric it seems to me, if we are not egocentric, then we don’t succeed in this society… is that healthy?…
