I went down to Savannah and surprisingly found some weird meats which I purchased including an Alpaca summer sausage type thing. I am not sure if I was not keen because of the spices or the meat. No matter, it apparently wasn’t a kosher animal so I feel bad about that anyway (apparently they don’t have split hooves?) Live and learn.

With the passing of my dog, we had a lot of organ meat which I had purchased for him to get him to eat more. One of those was a bunch of beef kidneys. My spouse made a Turkish dish from a recipe from Youtube and it was excellent! Not kosher (due to the meat as it’s a royal pain to make that kosher), but was still excellent.

I thought I had done this in the past. But given we just had a 3.9 magnitude earthquake near Metter not long ago, I guess I should finally do it. June 18 a little past 4 am, it happened. Either I slept through it or I didn’t notice. The previous day, we had a smaller earthquake. I didn’t notice.
In 2003, 4.9 earthquake in Atlanta. GUESS WHO SLEPT THROUGH IT. My husband was at work and he saw the building shake.
There must be something with me and natural disasters that want me to sleep right through them, especially earthquakes or not even notice the earthquake is happening.

My grandmother died so I am just been not really in the mood.
I tried so much to get things done but it has not helped.
I tried the guitar class on Coursera but it was really bad. I will not use them again for that.
I still have
I went back home to Florida last year and my family are not adventurous eaters although they call me the picky one. Um… no. I am picky because I can’t have a few things due to allergies or religious reasons but I am very interested in trying different cultural cuisine. I doordashed a place I knew no one would like with my kid. She had octopus and I had veal heart. It was probably seared a little too long but otherwise it wasn’t horrible.
What is the strangest food you would try?

I was planning to updated my UNESCO sites but found out I missed labeling it for Everglades so I went back and tagged it appropriately.
I did go back through the list and I didn’t see that I had discussed the Grand Canyon as an UNCESCO site. Maybe it is in other posts but I don’t know.
On my parents various travels they enjoyed going to places of historical or natural interest. They claim I asked them to go wherever Coyote and Roadrunner lived which of course is the Grand Canyon or similar so we went there.
Honestly, all I remember is a single metal bar which served as the fence along the edge. That was not really a deterrent since I was so short I was smaller than the fence. I was warned to be careful since it was a drop. Yes… yes it was. It was a giant long hole that went on forever it seemed. I am pretty sure my eyes did the bit where the bottom gets bigger and then shrinks zoom in and out bit.
I was freaked out. And that is pretty much what I remember.

Lots of people on the hypnosis circuit know who he is. We actually spoke on Zoom about a project I was working on although I was also asking to know more about the corporate trainer thing that he has as well as his theory about hypnosis which sounds reasonable. I’m not sure what I was expecting, but I did appreciate the Hawaiian shirt rather than the suit. He was ok, though being asked for favours to get his friend’s school into my alma mater when my daughter, the legacy, didn’t get in was probably a little much. I wonder what he would have given me had I got her in and I know he didn’t appreciate my thesis and how it was set up, but it was as good as I could do with the Covid pandemic. Plus IRB would not have allowed it.
All in all, definitely an interesting experience.

Throw back to the early 1990s.
I actually met one of my musical idols when I was in elementary school. I grew up in a 60s station and even before that I liked The Monkees. So I was brought to work one day and I ended up meeting Davy Jones. He was ok, but was kinda rude because he wanted me to go to a show he was starring in. I just overall was not all that impressed.
Completed : Early 1990s
As many people know I quite literally grew up in front of a camera. When I was a child I did some very basic standup (against other kids doing various things) and as a loner, I chose to do standup. I ended up being master of ceremonies… at age I think 9 or 10. Those two years in my extracurricular life kinda blended together. I have continued to use these skills in my teaching career as well. I think I might want to get back into this.
Might anyone know of a connection?
Completed : 1992 (? Might have been 1991?)
