Hospital Day

I had to go to the hospital this morning, and then I have to go again this afternoon. If I was a dog they’d put me down.

It’s only a blood test and a cat scan, but I’ve been up to my neck in this stuff since last June and it’s wearing me out.

Meanwhile, as peace talks loom, Russia and Ukraine are belting each other with drones. Why does that remind me of The Terminator? Remember that scene of the robots crushing heaped-up human skulls? I mean, come on, is this any way to bring in peace talks?

Are we going to give up killing each other like civilized people and leave it all up to robots? Is that what passes for “progress” in a fallen world?

Let’s see if we can find a hymn to lift our spirits. Well, mine at least.
