Today has gone well .. I'm happy. (Unlike yesterday which had best be left behind and unmentioned!) I caught an early market rally this morning and made my daily target or $200 -- haha how I wish I made it every day.
This left me time to relax --unfortunately I wasted 2 hours in pointless research concerning why there was such a low turn-out in the 1959 Hawaii statehood plebiscite. Who cares! I get into the mental arguments and reading controversial opinion. I feel as if I must argue and do research to prove my point. It's all a stupid ego driven waste of time.
Afterwards I began so fun work. I'm in the process of digitalizing my life. I want to scan and electronically save my life long collection of photographs and writings as well as some of my favorite books. I don't want to have crap and clutter sitting in my future house. I want as few possessions as possible. Clothes, a computer or two, and a few cameras. That's it. I don't want anything to stand between me and life.
So I scanned a few books and studied Bisaya a little. It feels good to learn a new language. I'll study a little as dinner is cooking. Maybe I can try out a few words with Zita .. assuming we can ever get a phone connection working. It will be good to see her. Missed her yesterday.

Haha. Didn't even have a chance to start dinner. I checked my mail first, and to my delight I found a message from her containing 10 pictures. We didn't talk yesterday because she had to take Ashly to a book fair. She sent some pictures of the fair "to prove what she said was correct." I must tell her that she doesn't have to prove anything to me.
The picture of her and Uzziaha is just adorable. And to think I am being invited into that life. They don't have much money. Zita doesn't even own a house. But what she does have is far and away more precious that all that I have. Far and away.
Now I do need to get dinner going.
