I'm wondering when Jesuscoin is going to make a comeback. The idea of that cryptocurrency has been rebooted at least twice before.

I always figured that some megachurch would create it as a "family friendly" version of Bitcoin, which seems to be associated with drugs and porn.

Got a text from a friend wishing me a happy New Year in reply to my happy New Year text. Says he has covid. I asked him if he had been vaccinated. He says he doesn't believe the vaccine's effective and will never get it. Goes on to tell me the whole family's infected. But says that nothing serious. : facepalm:

My buddy & his family got COVID for a second time last month. Strongly anti-vax. Insists it's no big deal, and yet had to take over 5 weeks of leave from work due to being infected It was basically just a flu/cold for them fortunately, but he couldn't return to work until he had a negative COVID test, so he was simply out of work for 1/12th of the year. Yikes!

I made lemongrass ice cream today for the first time. With oil based flavorings, the strength is pretty even among different flavors with a quarter teaspoon per batch being standard. Not so with lemongrass oil. This stuff is overpowering, even when frozen. I might have to mix the ice cream with chicken stock and make Thai soup instead of using it as ice cream. The flavor is good, just way too strong.

Woke up in middle of night and could not sleep, which is odd for a night after working night shifts as usually it's very hard to revert back to day mode. After not being able to fall sleep figured I'd get up. Feels weird to be up this early on a non work day. At least I will be reverted back to day shift mode now. Probably fastest turn around I ever did.

My mind is gone... Made coffee, filled cup, a few min later went to the coffe machine and was surprised there is only a little left in the carafe and the reservoir has no water. So I filled it again and brewed coffee. Then get to kitchen table with the carafe to find my full cup of coffee.

Just remembered I had a lucid dream, it was very short. Basically I was lying in bed, in a suit for whatever reason and I had to pee. So I manage to coax myself to get up to go to the bathroom and when I turned on the light, it didn't come on. Then I was like "oh, it's one of those dreams where the light in the bathroom does not work" since I've had those before. I turned it on and off a bunch of time to see if it starts to work but it didn't. Then I tried to see if I could fly or try to make something interesting happen, but I just ended up back in my bed and woke up for real, and had to pee.
