       My town – Champaign IL – is in decline, it seems to me.My industry – software – produces crappy products and is explicitly user-hostile.My final professional focus – Agile – is dominated by charlatans and people who care only about money.My country – USA – is desperately doing anything it can to avoid facing its mounting problems. My body – 1959 model – has decided it’s time for everything to be achy most all the time. I have a cold.This sucks.

       @marick Honestly, the only thing keeping my spirits up in light of all of the above is everything related to the kid's college applications and financial aid forms.   Oh, wait. Ah, hell.
