The whole world is festering with unhappy souls
The French hate the Germans, the Germans hate the Poles
Italians hate Yugoslavs, South Africans hate the Dutch
And I don't like anybody very much!!
. . .
They're rioting in Africa
There's strife in Iran
What nature doesn't do to us
Will be done by our fellow man
-- Kingston Trio

Seemed appropriate. Plus ça change....Apparently students are worried about a draft. That reminds me of the best April Fool's trick ever. When I was in college, the college newspaper ran an April Fool's article saying that then-President Reagan had reinstituted the draft. We all believed the article. After reading some less-plausible articles, we realized that we had been had. So this type of thing has been going on for a long time. And no draft.

Had a hard time getting moving this morning.

Zara is coming into the kitchen to use the litterbox, even though there's one in the bedroom. Goof :)

I found a 32-inch Smart TV that I like on eBay, but I'm still not going to get it right now. I'll keep it in mind for the future. Now I'm looking at used TVs on Facebook Marketplace. There are some good deals out there. There's a used 32-inch Smart TV in Springfield that I'm considering.

Work has been quiet. I discussed Star Wars with my boss. Neither of us was thrilled with it.

When I got home, I gathered up some library books to return. I spent some time with Mimi on my lap.

I'm tired. I'm going to make it an early night.
