13-second video: Walt Disney World’s 43-square miles was once officially called EPCOT by Walt Disney. Only after Walt’s 1966 death did we rename EPCOT to Walt Disney World.
i do not know why i write every day. i only know i enjoy it and can’t help myself.

Walt was crazy to think his alligator, snake, and mosquito-infested Central Florida swampland could be transformed into the Vacation Capital of the World.
Yet here we are.

You wake up one day and realize how the place has dramatically changed. These are old WordPress website headers.
WordPress 5.9 Josephine auto installed yesterday.
WordPress (WP) continues to improve slowly and steadily. Over time, however, the contrast from a decade ago to now is extraordinary. So grateful to learn it one iteration at a time.
i trust WP.
WP changed my life.
Today is the 4,837 consecutive day writing five daily, differently-themed blog posts.
That’s 24,180 blog posts.
The official world record by a single author is 17, 212.
No one cares about a blogging world record.
i write, not because i need to, but because i want to. It’s a daily, involuntary reflex. One that someday may disappear.
Meanwhile, here’s a trip down memory lane…the colored WP website headers are as follows:
Mind – grey matter
Body – brown is between the darkest and lightest skin
Spirit – everyone bleeds red
Work – US dollar bill green
Home – Dark blue is fav color
Working diligently to decide the future of my workload.

Disney Cast Years of Service trophies. Randomly took photo today for this post.
Milestones are an important way to solidify relationships.
Neanderthals likely celebrated (or dreaded) the sun’s rising as a sign they made it through the night without getting eaten.
Neanderthals likely (as if i have any clue) also celebrated the sunset because it meant they survived another day without getting eaten.
The paradox of this is they also likely feared the sunrise and the sunset. What’s to celebrate when you know the entire day will be spent looking over your shoulder, or sleeping with one eye open and one ear open.
Neanderthals were part of the food chain.
And they were a long way from the top.
Evolution brought breakthroughs like knives made from bones, spear heads made from stones. Over millenia, the smartest and strongest survived.
Modern day neanderthals (that’s us) now have a microscopic T-Rex and Saber-toothed tiger, Covid.
And little ole me is reflecting on the 40-year anniversary of my Disney hire date.
