Oh Joy! Windows 10 has the update now! And--a bonus--I got 5 gingerbread men in my first go at GemMatch! A lot of people have been complaining about a low drop rate....I complained yesterday about that and other disappointments to G5 support yesterday (and got an immediate response! 😯; I nearly fell off my chair--usually it's weeks before you get a real reply after the ticketing response), so hopefully there will be some corrections.

Cheese and pasta; cheese and ramen? Not such a big difference as I see it--but I don't use the soup with the noodles. That would be gross. Blech! (Is there a barfing smilie? I don't see it.)

I had to study economics as part of my commerce degree--I emphasize the "had to". It would not have been a choice, however microeconomics did have some useful ideas that are actually practical (don't tell Mik that; he might be all gung-ho about macro-ec.) I knew a Math Ph.D. candidate, who explained his thesis to me very clearly: it was interesting that I could follow what he was saying at the time even though I forgot it all immediately afterwards. I find math and physics fascinating, but ultimately, incomprehensible. Sigh. So much to learn; so little time.

😉😉If you are joking about 'our kid', I guess you're a little beyond the boy/girl-friend stage:how wonderful for you!

I don't think anyone would be offended by what you said, particularly if they are parents: for both of you being science/techno types, it would be far easier on all parties to raise a like-minded kid, but I am certain you would be supportive if he/she demonstrated other aptitudes. Most  happy people like others around them to be happy too, and trying to force a squiggly peg into any standard geometrical peg would result in tears in the long run. As an artistic type, I assure you we are squiggly, which means we need to change shape frequently! Once in a square peg, we tend to overflow like a muffin top--and forced to stay there, deflate to a sticky little blob at the bottom of the hole. Very sad 😪.

It is snowing here! Where the bleep did that come from? It gives me an excuse to put up the Christmas tree though; the lights look so pretty in reflection. Must go. Thanks for telling me a little more about yourself; I appreciate it! 💖
