The happy place

I’m in a pleasant mood. There was this hunk of aged goat cheese which I ate a while ago which I’m feeling in the inside of my stomach right now: It’s like a small candle of happiness burning in there even after eaten. That’s pretty spectacular.

Cheese is a great invention with many uses and variations, (arguably even more versatile than the potato because you can eat it with or without mold. (Potato gratin is a perfect five star dish: a union of the best of the animal world and the best vegetable.))

I was setting up a new iPad today, it’s an experience which makes me very angry for all the hoops and authentications and of course I’ve forgotten my password and of course the new one I set could not have three consecutive numbers and it can’t have all caps either. Then also the two factor authentication got stuck in a loop making me angrier with each iteration. Sitting staring down on that fool thing feeling like some super idiot waiting for it to complete the various stuff and the end it’s much like the old iPad except with an USB-C connector and it can actually charge so there’s that.

It’s been like you can tell a very contrast rich day: first that debacle with the iPad and now this cheese experience.

I’ve been considering playing wow classic with that friend from my youth I was writing about earlier. I love playing as a healer. I love healing people. Healing, healing and resurrecting them if need be. I used to be a resto shaman: a troll with a big blue nose and tusks, but my friend and his friend (who is also my old friend) play alliance and I’ve always, always played as horde so it could be too big of a leap for me. We shall see. Like why would anyone want to play alliance when you can be a troll with tusks riding a raptor in barrens?

Finally I’ve spent most time these days building that thing and I really love carpentry and all of the power tools and saws which I do use even though I see on them how insanely dangerous they are. It’s funny to me how I use more mathematics when building than I do when programming for a living?!
