Hey GC, yep, thanks. I had a cold last week from not being warm enough. I definitely keep snug now. The series is on Netflix, the Wu Tan guy explores science issues like mars, vr, cryogenic options after death etc. What do you do with the guys that keeps you busy if you don't mind me asking.

What's asd?

A lot of people from tropics suffer this disorder..but since being depressed is frowned upon most suffer in silence.. some do who has been treating Ethiopians for years told me it is vitamin deficiency...I know as as soon as spring hits my energy levels rebound ..

I think you need a clear night routine. A way to destress and not think so much. Chamomile, a hot bath and candles work for me but maybe in your case you need to sort of find time for yourself somehow. I don't think the answer is in diagnoses like SAD and finding treatments but really just finding a way to be at peace before you sleep. If sex isn't always an option then maybe just deep breathes, meditation, vege out sort of, just no reading or entertaining the little guys before you sleep. That can spike stress levels. I just recently bought a Fitbit which monitors my sleep, heart rate among many other benefits. I highly recommend a smart watch which might help you find a momentum or elevate your routine. My Fitbit tells me when I need to sleep, when to step around, how much REM sleep or deep sleep I've been having, wakes me up when I have a nightmare, tells me to relax if my heart rate is too high etc. etc.

Btw, I'm going to my cousin's wedding soon in Seoul and I've been catching up with what's happening since it's been a while. They're having some K-pop group for entertainment, so I've been watching some K-pop on youtube just now... I don't quite get the craze... do you listen to K-pop?


How are the wedding guests supposed to dance to K-pop?? ??

I miss the good oldie days. James Mboya too. But Cookie is a millionaire. He made his money during the real estate kaboom.

Yep. He used to post odd images...

GC, I can't imagine anyone actually dancing to K-pop.. maybe if they gyrate their hips Kenyan style... that could be funky.
