I have a swamp cooler going right now on my roof. It works just as good as AC but at a lower energy/money cost.

I too follow the emissary.

The name itself is self redundant.

I was a kid and that year my birthday fell on Thanksgiving. The big plan was to go out to see the St. Louis Blues play (when Wayne Gretzky was playing!). Well my 2 year older brother had a meltdown how I wasn't worthy of bring along and he should go. My asshole dad, who never liked me, did just that. He took my brother, on my birthday, to see hockey's greatest player.

I don't talk to either of them for unrelated reasons but that was a shit birthday.

It’s been 30 minutes. Welcome back, again, again.

I would play the album In the Aeroplane Over the Sea from start to finish. It's a rewarding listen.

That's one of the reasons I went and it did help. I had to leave for a different reason. The dry air was amazing, it was like taking a wet blanket off. My mobility went up and my energy up.

It's worth a visit for sure!

I use a free (state sponsored?) "Ask a Nurse". I just do well, exactly that and they give me medical answers and tell me if I should go to the ER. All free. Maybe your state has one?

So you've turned your PC into a Cadillac. Respect.

I moved out the western slope of Colorado, to the high desert, after I got an MS diagnosis. I've never had more concentration in my life. I was able to focus without a chime or someone else needing to contact me. Just me and how to move forward. Years later I moved back to the city.

It took my a while to get back to city life when I left, the busy everything, the phone going off, the lights in the sky at night blocking the stars. How do we all do it?
