In some ways that tree is a blessing, I have the best excuse I know of 
but I operated for all my life on a random access system. I'm just aware 
of it every day now. <sigh> I'm sure we've all gone to a room and 
wondered why weare there, you k now you wanted to do/get/? something but 
it's gone, just gone. Heck, sometimes I can't remember why I stood up. 
Oh well, getting older is better than the alternative.

Don't sweat making light of my tree experience it makes me feel better. 
Grant Sarver RIP started a roast on me and really healed me, if folk are 
joking you know down deep you're okay or aren't going downhill. Jokes 
and humor are my strongest armor.
