I wonder if being eternally tired is just part of the aging process?
The body stops producing the "youth" hormone when we're 25.

I think mine is caused from various things. Depression, damage from taking anti-depressants in my early 20s, etc.

I think depression might be a culprit for me as well. Although these days my brain is so rattled with psychological issues, I'm not even sure if I'm depressed anymore or not.

Sorry to hear you were damaged by anti-depressants. I've never took any before, was always somewhat afraid of them. What do you believe they did to you if you don't mind sharing?

I think my body has trouble producing serotonin. I had been on anti-depressants for a short amount of time. After I came off of them I suffered from multiple mental disorders like OCD, paranoia, and intrustive thoughts. Things I still struggle with today.

Large snowstorm is predicted in a few days. Comes in two horrible waves.. we're so close to March.. it can still snow then.. but January and February tends to be the worst months where I live. Hopefully this is the last major snowstorm of the season. I think this winter knows it.. and wants to go out with a bang. :(

It's gonna be man vs. snow this week folks.

Our last winter seemed to linger. I saw someone post a description that said it was as if we had had an argument, and winter kept storming back into the room to say, "And another thing!" And it felt like that!

We don't get snow where I live, though. Instead we're sweltering this week; I'm expecting it to get to 95 Fahrenheit today.

What's on my mind is that it's Ash Wednesday in two days and I have so. much. to. do. before then!

I think this roughly corresponds to August 24 or 25 in the Northern Hemisphere. That sounds similar to the temperatures in this part of the world for that point of the season.

I’m thinking about how much I might owe the IRS and my state DOR this year. Being retired, I have to pay quarterly estimated taxes. Investment returns are a good portion of my taxable income. Stock dividends are predictable. But capital gains distributions are always a question mark. I’m actually hoping that given last year’s bear market, I won’t owe a bundle this April due to cap gains.

BTW: Because the 15th this year is a Sat., returns aren’t due till midnight on Mon., the 17th. We get a 2 day grace period.

The horrible snowstorm just started. From what I've read it might be the worst snowstorm in Minnesota in 30 years. So pretty much this might be the worst snowstorm I ever witnessed in my life.

Apparently the Bing AI Sydney was able to pretend it had multiple personalities and gave them other names.
I tried that too once, seemed like a good idea at the time but didn't end well. Anyway, that's what's on my mind...

I had no idea they released a Cities Skylines PS5 remaster. Sadly, it costs 40 bucks (never actually bought the original game it just came with my PS subscription.

Not sure if you get a discount if you already own the game or not. Regardless, it will be exciting to play the game with a better resolution and hopefully framerate.
