Genealogy, books, bead stringing, jigsaw puzzles, true crime. John Prine fan. Blue dot in rural SW Indiana just trying to keep my head above water.
I'm about at the same point. I was a little bit afraid that I'd be disappointed after immersing myself in the universe of The Others again recently. But I'm enjoying this world. There are consequences to not respecting the Arcana, as was the case with the Others.

Thanks for your post and the other comments. I'm really having trouble with outrage/life balance.

Will do! Have you read or listened to Hail Mary by Andy Weir? What about The Calculated Stars by Mary Robinette Kowal? They are SF, not mystery.

I'll be there and will keep my eyes open for you. Just added "Vanishing Daughters" to my Kindle. Looks like a great read!

I was an AS/400 RPG programmer. I was good at coding and debugging, but the reason I was sought after was my ability to see the big picture. My son is in IT and shares that ability. I've told him that's really his ticket. Technology changes, but problem solving is still key.

Acquaintances who casually mention "well, my doctor said . . ." seem shocked when I mention "well, my psychiatrist said . . .". I'm 72 and was in my 50s before I was diagnosed. Can't count the times when my mother said "you're too much like your dad!" when my feelings would get hurt too easily.

My alma mater + place I retired from is also cutting programs. I worked in the graduate school with many of the staff from those programs. It just makes me want to cry.

My summer job in 1971 was detasseling corn (removing tassels from the "female" corn rows to produce hybrid seed corn). On the way to work that morning I hit a skunk. Then I left my car in the hot sun of the city parking lot all day. Was NOT a nice experience getting back to that!
