You know what I want one year from today. A PRESIDENT. Not the hate-filled clown.
On a happier note: today is Buzz Aldrin's 90th birthday.
I finished my latest feature article and turned it in to my editor. It was a long slog. Not my favorite topic. Sometimes I think I like writing less and less as I get older, but it's pretty much the only job skill I have, and at age 60, what the hell else am I going to do to make money??
I am pretty hard on myself when I write -- I want everything perfect. And, of course, accuracy is important when writing. But I keep telling myself that I am doing something that's very, very hard. I am writing about cutting-edge, interdisciplinary scientific topics that most people would not be able to wrap their heads around. There aren't many people who can do what I do, so maybe I shouldn't sell myself so short???
