READING, WRITING

Read for 60 seconds in SAPIENS by Yuval Noah Harari.  He says, in the next chapter titled "Memory Overload" that humans do not have evolutionary genes to play football, for example.  We might have the physical genes to allow us to walk, run, kick, etc, which are then used to play football.  But we have no "football gene."  We merely agree with each other that we'll play the game according to imaginary rules we've come up with collectively.

This seems obvious to me.

Well, this sucks!  What are my problems today?

1. No David Deal money call.... after so many years!  At least 5 years.  I'm not sure what it means that I've hung on this long, and that I'm willing to hang on longer.
2. BED BUG found this morning, on top of my comforter.  I tried to catch it, but when I was about to coax it into a plastic baggie, it flipped up and I never saw it again.  It could have landed on me, on a pillow, on the floor.... I don't know.  BUT WHY MUST THIS BE HAPPENING AGAIN??????  After all we went through to get rid of the bugs, here is one actually crawling across my comforter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  It was at about 6:30 when I saw it.  I have since sat in bewilderment, dismay, tears...... wondering what I should do now.  I've considered several things:   a.  Throw out all my bedroom furniture, bedding and "stuff" that could host a bed bug or its eggs.   b.  Keep everything, having washed all the bedding, until after Saturday 11/16, when the carpet cleaners will be here.  Put the old mattress & etc. in the garage (park on the street), and during that following week, buy a new mattress & box spring (cheap one).   c.  Move to SLC or OC.
3. RENTAL:  Have to pay the repair guy in cash, which messes up my budget.  Oh well.  At least I found someone to do the repairs for MUCH LESS than I was quoted earllier.  So this "problem" has been mostly resolved.  I still have to deal with it today.

1. Joe:  Way to go, no Mo Joe! (sent text)
2. Chrissy: Way leads on to way, I hope you like your way today! (sent text)
3. Ada:  My first granddaughter!  But wait just a minute. It was crowded in there - someone else's in it. (sent text)
4. Ethan:  My first grandson! So smart and polite.  Letting Ada go first was proper and right! (sent text)

1. Elliot:  I'll prepare something about piano, and about gymnastics & send it to him.
2. Oliver:  I'll prepare something about Thanksgiving/Halloween ???? & send to him.
