I Apparently CAN!
Mar. 8th, 2022 01:16 amWhew. I had another journal on LJ before the days_unfolding one, under the name of "adriennerad," which is the name that I use across the Internet. I thought that it was backed up to Dreamwidth, but I discovered it wasn't. So I just used blogbooker to save it in case LJ goes down, and backed the PDF file up to Evernote. I'm breathing more easily.
No ice and no snow this morning. Just wet. Awesome. I need to go get oatmeal, but I've been having IBS symptoms and my stomach is upset, plus I have some grits that I need to eat. I'm trying to eat down my stash of food to save money and to decrease the amount of food that I'd have to move.
I was accepted into the iCAN (Illinois Computing Accelerator for Non-Specialists) program!!!! U of Illinois Computer Programming Department, here I come!!!!
I asked my dad how the family got from Lithuania to the southern part of Germany during World War II, and he's describing the trip in email installments. Should be interesting.
Hmm. Facebook reminded me about a free hotel voucher if I go to Hawaii and plant trees. Maybe I should try for that for my 60th birthday, although now that I'm on iCAN, that could conflict. Okay, that seemed to be a scam, but I found a legit site. One in Nepal caught my eye, but the airfare is $2000. Can't do that this year.
Hmm. Now I'm mulling over a trip to London or Dublin/London for my 60th birthday if I can pull it off financially. It would be in November, so the prices would be lower. I could see a trip basically seeing the museums in London. (I've been there once, but only for a couple of days 40+ years ago.) Need a London guidebook. And one for Dublin. Oh! I do have a London guidebook. It's dated 1997, so stuff like restaurants and hotels might have changed, but the sights wouldn't have. And Oh! The museums in London are free! (You could spend days in the British Museum alone.)
I lay down for a while to get rid of a headache, but couldn't sleep. I have stuff to do, so it's just as well. Well, I blew a bunch of time researching the trip and on Facebook. Not going to be productive tonight. But given that I wasn't feeling very well, it's okay.
