Feeling crappy in the morning and better in the afternoon. And then a bit crappy again in the evening. That’s generally the way these things go, isn’t it?
This morning I spent far too much time trying to ‘verify’ my professional identity with Google. I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but sometimes when you google people a thing called a ‘knowledge panel’ comes up. Don has one. If I look under my name and voice coach, I have one. (Frankly, I’m surprised that I have one at all. Don having one makes sense.)
Anyway, he discovered that his knowledge panel had a photo of someone else. And that someone else was not a nice person. So he asked Google to remove it and they did. Then he went through this process of verifying who he is because he’s in the public eye and he wanted to make sure the information is accurate. An annoyingly long process that we finally figured out the other morning. That led me to trying to verify mine this morning. God knows if it will work. With Google, you feel like you’re just sending info out into the ether, all the time wondering if anyone is reading it. Or cares. Fingers crossed.
When I finished, I told Don that I didn’t even know why I went through that since I didn’t even know that there was a knowledge panel on me a week ago and ignorance is bliss.
Oy.
We watched the movie Bird Box last night on Netflix. It stars Sandra Bullock. It’s a scary movie and I was a tense mess throughout. But, boy, was it good! Beautifully done. Bullock is excellent. If you don’t mind scary movies, you should watch it. I recommend it highly!
But maybe don’t watch it right before you are going to go to bed, like I did. It took me a while to wind down!
It’s raining here today. Looks like it will be all day long.
Depending on how I feel, I might start in on the office closet.
Happy Saturday.
