Meh

 I'm in a crappy mood. Yesterday was beautiful. I had a good day. Went driving with a friend. Got a picture of an eagle in it's nest. Discovered new signs at the wildlife refuge about buried ordinance. Today it's raining and I'm in a shit mood.  It's amazing how much of an effect weather can have on mood.

Glasses

 I ordered a pair of glasses online.  I used a company I'd used before. This is the first pair I've ever ordered that have the transition type lenses (they darken when you are in bright light). The order was completed and sent.  Expected arrival was Monday. I have the USPS tracking number. It tracks to a facility in California, leaves that facility and nothing.  I get a message that my package is still in transit to the next facility but that's it. It's been saying this for two days. Ordinarily I have the utmost respect for the postal system but right now I'm climbing the walls waiting for my glasses. Trump screwed all of us by screwing up the postal system. I just don't understand how Americans got so damn gullible that they believed this guy was fixing things. He broke way more than he fixed.

Reality

 I've decided that reality is bullshit. Why? Because everyone's reality is different.  Granted there are a few universal truths, but mostly reality is such a subjective experience that it's impossible to truly define. I read a quote once (can't remember who it was attributed to) that if you are a fish and you are judged on your ability to climb a tree then you will feel like a failure.  Quite true because the reality for the fish is vastly different than any other being.  Humans are all so radically different that we can't judge people by any standards because mostly standards are not actually standard depending on who and what and where you are.
