Do I regret not having internet access at home? π‘
- With COVID-19 closing down my office and the library, it can be inconvenient not having internet access at home besides my phone
- But still I enjoy the solitude, I like the limited internet connection on my phone – the phone can be turned off and without internet my phone isn’t constantly pinging me
- That said, it’s getting annoying now that I’m running out of library books to read and I don’t have any more YouTube videos to watch, although I could download more in the future
- Not having it at home requires me to consolidate my internet tasks and keeps me from bringing work home
- While it’s not free to drive down to the Bethlehem Library or Five Rivers Environmental Education Center to get on the internet, it’s cheaper than paying for the service
- Eventually things will return to normal and besides the library I can walk down to the park with my laptop
April 1st… A choice
April 1st… You can have one of these:
- A million dollars
- A penny on April 1st, with an amount doubled for each day in April
Which one do you choose? One option is worth over $20 million dollars as expodential growth is kind of crazy like that.

How to Be Lucky
Psychology studies have found that whether you identify yourself as lucky or unlucky, regardless of your actual lot in life, says a lot about your worldview, well-being, and even brain functions. It turns out that believing you are lucky is a kind of magical thinking—not magical in the sense of Lady Luck or leprechauns. A belief in luck can lead to a virtuous cycle of thought and action. Belief in good luck goes hand in hand with feelings of control, optimism, and low anxiety. If you believe you’re lucky and show up for a date feeling confident, relaxed, and positive, you’ll be more attractive to your date.
