The open source community designs desktops about as well as Stevie Wonder color coordinates (unassisted)

MATE is the only current Linux desktop that doesn't make me want to chuck my computer across the room.

Ohhh. I love everything about this except the price tag.

Littler box is pristine. Freshly changed. I think this is just kvetching for kvetching's sake.

The "go by new name" thing is not effective where the cat is concerned. Meow is all encompassing and she is giving me a torrent of them. She has food so I have no idea what her complaint is.

In fact, I think I will no longer answer to Tom today.

I will pick a new name at random and I will tell no-one what it is.

I will talk out loud to inanimate objects and bust out laughing at random intervals. While doing this I will open carry.

Yes. It will be the most glorious "me" day ever because no-one in their right mind will dare intrude upon it.

That. Looks. So. Good.

To expand upon the prior post

I am a slave to to-do lists. scheduled appointments and unscheduled catastrophes all week long. These are not permitted today.

If you are not in the friends and family category, your phone calls will be ignored.

If you are not in that category and persist in calling anyway, your number will be blocked. No exceptions.

If you are in the aforementioned category and call to request help with anything related to digital electronics or double entry bookkeeping, woe be unto you. Woe.

In a couple of hours, I am leaving this house and having a "me" day.

This involves going to the bank because I have 12 checks to deposit. Yes, they pile up like that all of the time because I simply have no opportunity during the week to do anything about it

Afterwards, I am going to grab my notebooks and pens.

Beyond that, I do not know. I live by to-do lists and schedules. I'm not going to adhere to them today.

Very picturesque!
