Watching the news today, I remembered the time I learned the word obfuscate.

On a frustrating day many years ago, someone looking for a straight answer accused me of obfuscating. I had to look that word up. "To obfuscate something means to make it so that it isn't clear or transparent, much like dirty water makes it hard to see to the bottom of a pond." ~ Merriam Webster Dictionary. I spent some time thinking about whether I was truly obfuscating or (more innocently) my usual indecisive self. The end result was that day, I accepted the challenge to grow up a little bit. Obfuscating is something young children do, but responsible adults (and Kelly Anne Conway) should not.

I found your blog link saved in my bookmarks and decided to click on it even though I didn't think you blogged anymore. I guess technically you're not really blogging, but it was nice to see a new post after a gazillion years (I hadn't read this one!). I miss my friends writing blog posts (so much calmer to read things here than on other forms of social media) and I miss you. Hope you're doing well. And I hope you receive/read this comment!
