Couple of months ago I stumbled across my friend Gary's bio. He works for Stan Smith Events. His bio describes him as a digital creator. Evidently that's a thing. Had to google the definition. Here's what it said: "Someone who sets up their account to monetize clicks, shares, and engagements". "Many are bots or scam accounts". "Someone who doesn't have a real job". "One who produces content for a larger audience". Some say Facebook will just arbitrarily designate your account as digital creator. Or you can manually do so yourself. Evidently my sister is a Digital Creator.
My friend Lang is a Digital Creator. It's literally his job. He talks and writes and posts for a living, on several different media platforms. Works for a media company. I checked his profile. Doesn't say digital creator. Doesn't have to. It's who he is.
While I rarely post on social media any more, I will tweet from time to time. If the feeling is right. And I've been posting original content on my personal blog on a daily basis for the past twenty years. If that's not a digital creator, I don't know what is. Yet some people dub themselves a digital creator while posting close to zero original content, aside from trolling people they don't know in the comments of other people's posts. Whatever floats your boat.
Tuesday: Ceil was down with the girls again. I lifted weights. Saw Nancy and the Navy vet David, and some of the regulars in the sauna. Then I cooled down on the treadmill for 30 minutes. Stopped by Wendys for free large fries with purchase. Had to wait 4 minutes / 240 seconds. Fries were hot but the burger lacked ketchup and mustard.
Wednesday: they're laying the new floors in the bedroom. The carpet upstairs was like 20 years old, and in bad shape.
Went to the gym, then mailed a letter on the way home. Ceil ate dinner with one group of friends Tuesday night, and for lunch on Wedbesday with Myra and Mary Hurt. Tuesday night I fixed myself quesadillas with leftover chicken salad. For lunch Wednesday I ate the oatmeal that Ceil had leftover. Ceil volunteered to cook dinner for a lady at church whose husband died, and I delivered it. My small group is on track, and with a couple of group members out of town, we will be taking the scheduled week off for winter break.
We hope to take Shivonne and Millie to see Megan in Cinderella, in the Saturday afternoon matinee.
It was nice enough this morning for Anna and Goose to hang out on their front porch.
R.I.P. Jesse Jackson, a pivital figure in the civil rights movement. When Dr. Seuss passed away, Jackson famously read the book "Green Eggs and Ham" on Saturday Night Live.
