Ravings of an Undead Cheese Minion

I am not handy. I enjoy working with technology, and I can build computers (and thoroughly have fun doing so). And I love art and drawing, of course. However, I do not like working with tools or hands-on stuff as much. I love science, but I hated dissecting things in biology. It was so gross. Similarly, I didn't like chemistry experiments because I didn't want to accidentally stain my clothes or temporarily blind myself (though I did, in fact, love physics experiments — no real danger other than I guess powerful magnets). I did not like woodshop class as I was paranoid the whole time about getting my finger cut off. Etc. I can replace a headlight, but I will hate it, and I absolutely cannot change a car tire, nor do I want to invest the time in learning that when I could be doing math instead. Just call AAA. I am just not super hands-on.  However, I have found that when I apply my debugging and troubleshooting skills to handy things, sometimes good stuff happens. I was able to

It's vent time again! Look at all those partly cloudy days in the forecast, and the thunderstorms as well... This was not how last summer was, barring a few days here or there. I can't find my old screenshots, but I remember looking and seeing days of nothing but sunny skies.  I'm really starting to get tired of the Utah weather. Winter = cold, dark, cloudy, snowy, depressing. Autumn = a few pretty sunny days at the very beginning, but ultimately devolving into endless fog, RAIN, clouds, and gloom. Spring = some beautiful days interspersed with RAIN and CLOUDS and then even more rain and more clouds.  The last few summers have been beautiful . I can only think of 2 summer thunderstorms that happened in 2020. They were both in July. One of them caused me to get rained on during a carnival trip, and the other screwed up my Cowabunga Bay trip (though I ended up being able to go a few weeks later). But the rest of the time was beautiful, hot, sunny weather. Gorgeous blue skies

I am one of those people who starts Christmas on November 1st. You know the type. And I start thinking about Halloween after the second week of September.  But wow, do I hate back to school commercials! I just got the first one in my email inbox, from Microsoft. Ugh.  I’m 28 (ugh) but you get the idea. And no, it’s not because I dislike school. If I disliked it I wouldn’t have gone for the MS! It’s because summer doesn’t end until mid-September and I don’t like being bombarded with SUMMER IS ENDING, YOU WILL SOON HAVE TO WEAR PANTS AGAIN when it’s mid-July and summer is most certainly not even close to ending.  It sucks especially because of how gray and depressing it’s been. Why is this 2021 summer in Utah so dang cloudy?! I didn’t sign up for this. It’s like this summer is cursed. I just want SUN. 

...because it KEEPS RAINING, dang it. All these stupid clouds. I hate the rain, and clouds too (light cumulus clouds are fine; it's fun to see the shapes in them). THIS IS NOT A DROUGHT. It was NOT this cloudy and rainy last summer. At least it gets sunny after a while.  Thank you for your time.
