Getting Real

Pale and transparent, you can observe the world through her thinning sense of self. Time is a meaningless device she uses to give herself a feeling of having accomplished something meaningful.

Her eyes are on herself in a last ditch effort to give herself substance and weight but she is blind.

Follow Your North Star

I did all the ‘right’ things; crossing all the T’s and dotting all the I’s but I felt a little empty and inadequate at the end of every day. Too much on my plate and no brakes to say ‘no.’ I was sorry every week to miss the opportunity to say ‘Hey’ to you guys.

Tech Tip: iPhone Precision Keyboard Cursor

Selecting text on my iPhone has always been frustrating, but it’s been especially so since they stopped magnifying the text when you long press it. What I didn’t know, until recently, is that Apple updated the way the cursor works in iOS 12 — two years ago!
