That's what seems to have happened here. Absolutely no-one is reading this, which is a very good thing. It really helps me reach my original goal of anonymity. There is no one more anonymous than someone who is being completely ignored. All this is quite wonderful and makes me oddly happy.
And happiness is rather hard to come by these days. I'm a person who has never, ever cared or bothered to understand the stock market, which might explain some of my happiness. This is not to say that I am not connected to that insane institution: I am. Money that I have earned has disappeared there. The first large disappearance was in 2008, and, of course, recently more of it has been going down the drain. But since I was never able to spend it and therefore turn it into something of value for me, and since I had no understanding of where it went, I never missed it.
I did find myself getting tense several months ago when the government was about to shut down and possibly default on its loans. Since there was a good possibility that Social Security checks would not arrive, I faced a very concrete problem. But that didn't happen. So happiness returned.
