More Musings 2024

Every six months or so, another bout with “COVID” … errr, the common cold …occurs. And, to make matters worse, another cold front crept in about two weeks ago. Between cold ambient temperatures and sleep deprivation, illin’ was inevitable. The usual symptoms (as chronicled previously in Notes) appeared on Sunday. Needless to say, melancholia has increased.

Obviously, there have been no evening outings. There’s absolutely nothing to do in the mausoleum at the “old folks home” in Waikiki. What about the Apple® Watch? Well, there’s no reason to fiddle with the device. Nearly all of the settings can be tweaked using the iPhone. In addition, all of the data on the Watch is transferred to the iPhone Health “app” three times daily. The Health “app” processes the data for organized viewing. The Watch is essentially a data collection tool. Thus, the battery in the Watch only depletes about 30% daily.

Incidentally, the need for blood-oxygen tracking on the Watch is superfluous. The main purpose of blood-oxygen readings is “super-duper corona.” That’s right. Blood-oxygen allegedly drops rapidly in severe cases of “COVID” … the “app” is obviously suited for the devoted face mask crowd or the fanatical parishioners of the Church of Comirnaty.

The Mindfulness “app” on the Watch has yet to be deployed. In actuality, Notes serves a better function even without reporting moods. Notes already isolates abnormal trends and provides essential details in the third-party format. Mood can be interpolated from the latter.

At present, Notes will continue to avoid discussions about current and geopolitical events (as delineated in the Notes post titled, “Course Correction”). The approved Web sites are still being perused several times daily. Personal opinion concerning the “garden variety” Fascists and their puppets has not changed. The evil democidal pogroms being perpetrated by the latter puppets will eventually cause the “chickens to come home and roost.” Choke da chicken!

Addendum: socks have been worn to keep the feet warm at night. The Mainstays® quartz heater will not be unboxed and redeployed. However, there has been some deliberation on the procurement of pajamas. Oh, the joys of senior citizenship!
