There’s so much despair
We can fail to see beauty
The colors of dawn

My body wants to sleep, but not my mind

My body wanting to sleep
My mind resisting
A Music Video Recommendation For You
This is by a good friend of mine, and I’ve really enjoyed this tune. Perhaps I’m a bit biased, but I think it’s worth a listen…or two…or 10…or….
What do you think?
Do you have any recommendations? I’m always looking for new and interesting music. Leave me a comment, if you’d be so good!
Cheers!

My son’s blasted phone
Hey there, my tech-savvy friends, my son has an original Pixel, which he loves. However, it’s picked up an annoying glitch. When anyone calls it, the answering screen doesn’t come up. It’s physically impossible to answer it; nothing there at all. Oddly, the phone rings and vibrates, just nothing else.
Here are some key details:
- Do Not Disturb isn’t on.
- The phone settings screen is greyed out (I think this is significant, but not able to drill down any further).
- He can answer calls with a bluetooth headset (tapping “answer” there).
- I’ll check and see if Google assistant will answer the calls. Hadn’t thought of that.
- Recently his phone updated to Android 9/Pie (did he get Pie in the face?)
Searching Google and Bing I’ve found many folks looking for solutions to this, going back a couple of years. Otherwise, that has been remarkably fruitless. Though I found a forum where the problem was stated to be a broken codec on the motherboard, and you’ll need a new one. Amusing by not helpful.
So, anyone have any ideas? My current best guess is that this some kind of bug or conflict related to the update. Haven’t seen anything formal from the Google, so it makes me wonder if it’s on their radar.
I’m eager for advice and counsel, oh my techie friends!
A Day In Front Of My Computer
Zany days. A 2 hour meeting in the morning disrupted everything. Not too uncommon, but it can be discomforting. Today, though, it was good. My team gave me a ton of space, so I was able to tunnel in and make AutoCAD sing. Well, to the best of my ability, at least. I’ve grown massively with my CAD skills, but I see a huge amount of growth out there.
Hours passed quite quickly, I was focused and in my zone. I love that feeling and really relish those moments I get to dive in like that. No distraction…focus! That is my happiest place!
With that, music really helps me deeply dive into focus. I pulled together a decent playlist on Google music based on Ghost in the Shell and Attack On Titan soundtrack elements, Then, this evening, I stumbled upon Maddy Meyers. This album below is exactly what I would’ve loved to queued up. So, it’ll just need to be tomorrow’s. For I expect focus will be important then, too.
Sunset: A Haiku
This day moved by fast
Sunrise becoming sunset
Orange horizon
A Monday fear
Nervousness wakes me
A meeting with high pressure
I’m lacking self-trust
An evening haiku
This night now ending
Time to calm my random thoughts
And embrace my rest
A #midnight #haiku
In this deep darkness
As this day transformed to new
This eerie silence?
