Tautness
Two early meetings today, then.... back to projects. Quite good, I guess. Just... odd. My blood sugar spiked in the morning and then coasted back down... and stayed down throughout dinner and even now. Not sure why; could be stress though it is weird (but not impossible) that it goes both ways. Alas. At least the commute home was much smoother, though I did see myself driving a bit slower and more defensively today. Stress? Feeling my age? Some residual PTSD from yesterday? I cannot tell. Odd feeling.
I had to re-open my old email today -- I guess I forgot to change over some insurance stuff -- so there I was re-opening (and re-closing) the thing because I had also forgotten the password to said insurance account. So it was a barrage of emails, confirmation texts, and alerts that a password had changed or there was a log on. I guess -- if I didn't know it was me doing it -- this is useful -- but it seemed that it was more tedious and irksome than anything. Speaking of irksome, I started the school supplies project for the summer -- getting what people want, talking to our parishes to see what they need, trying to find donors -- and as always, I am glad to do it, and am pleased that our parish schools are supported... but THE LAST SCHOOL YEAR HASN'T EVEN ENDED YET! Not that I have strong feelings about this, as you can tell.
What Libertarianism Gets Wrong - by Jon Gabriel (discoursemagazine.com)
Interesting. I took the test and found myself in the libertarian corner, albeit not as much as I thought. I mean, of course government has some reason to do things, and correcting injustice is one of them, but... much less than people think. I think in the above article... well, art and culture is useful but I think we spend way too much on both; or, more appropriately, elites spend way too much of their money and ours on this sort of thing. I love art as much as anyone, but... that which is not sustainable cannot be sustained. Alas.

I have to admit... I love Justice Alito; telling everyone to pound salt on recusing and pointing out that this is his wife's fight and not his... I love that, and... this could be me, but who calls the cops over a neighbor's flag? They should arrested them for being faint of heart!
