How to get me to immediately stop listening to your podcast

 I watched this film The Big Short.  I liked the film but with a few reservations.

I then read the book that the movie was based on. and again liked it, again with a few reservations.

I then looked for a podcast to listen to about the movie on my Podbean app.  I found one and started to give it a listen.  The podcast started with its two co-hosts chatting and they got onto to the subject of George Washington and revealed their liberal/progressive biases on the subject of Washington having owned slaves.  I stopped listening.

Not getting what you want

 There is one thing worse than not getting what you want or desire.  That is getting what you want or desire given to you on a silver platter with a cherry on top.  

Does using “given” or “served” make any difference?

Tummy Ache

 Trying to reset my body clock because I’m back to work on Monday, and I instead am awake all night because of a tummy ache which I had to gag myself for. on account of wanting to vomit the pain away.  I did bring up some bile and this relieve some pain.

I must have eaten something bad.  At least, that’s what I hope instead of the pain being because of my recent surgery.
