Evelyn Day 28
Good morning! It is 13 April 2023, and my granddaughter is 4 weeks old today.
Today I wrap up the course I’ve been sitting this week. It’s helped me to get a firm grasp on the content, and I’ll be delivering this course in about 2 months for the first time on my own.
I have a feeling that today is going to be an interesting day. Not for any particular reason, but just a hunch. There will be some piece of breaking news that will affect us all in one way or the other.
Yesterday I didn’t write well. My post was short and dismissive, and on most days I pull it together and get the content out, but yesterday was one of those ADHD days where I became distracted and never got my stuff back together.
One of the tools (toys?) I have been experimenting with is ChatGPT. It’s an artificial intelligence tool that I use for creative purposes. I like to ask questions for fun, such as, “Can you create a list of 100 items found in a fantasy wizard’s laboratory in the style of David Eddings”, or “Create a list of original place names for a medieval fantasy world in the style of Douglas Adams”. It can be a tool for spurring creativity or working as a substitute when the creative juices just aren’t flowing.
It’s about time for me to get focused on the tasks of the day. Time to make a pot of coffee and get something in my belly. Yesterday it was chili and eggs. Today might just be a couple slices of toast with peanut butter, and an old favorite that can go so well with a cup of Tanzanian Peaberry.
That coffee isn’t going to make itself.
I hope the world is treating you better than you deserve.
Peace y’all.
