THE ABSENCE OF UPDATES

 

In essence, I'm thoroughly tired of updates. I'm tired of my arm that's been hemorrhaging for four months. It's bandaged so tightly that I can hardly type one word without a mistake.

I'm tired of creepy night nurses giving me dire predictions (see previous post).

I'm tired of doctor appointments that never materialize.

I'm tired of not gaining weight due to deplorable food (once in a blue moon we get an edible meal). I'm sick of broccoli and fake mashed potatoes.

Know what we had for dessert at lunch today? One chocolate chip cookie. ONE.

When I was home alone I could eat two dozen cookies in one sitting. I could have pizza, burritos, hamburgers, real genuine pot roast. Sausage with onions and peppers. And ice cream.

If I remember correctly, that's "change of subject" in Hungarian. I'm here to impress you.

I previously mentioned that I'm now making AI videos. They're not fake. I use real family photos and artificial intelligence breathes "life" into them. The photos move with animation. Some are incredibly realistic.

Anyway, I want to put all of them together into one video.

A problem arises.

I always use Windows Movie Maker to make my videos. It's fast and very easy.

(yea, I know my videos are crap, but that's beside the point)

Well.....

Windows Movie Maker is obsolete. Windows stopped distributing it in 2017. I still have it on my old laptop at home.....but it's impossible to get a download.

(Internet Archives has an ancient download of the original 2012 one, but I tried it and it doesn't work).

Am I boring you?

Naw, it's an impossibility.

SO

I recently discovered that my Samsung phone has a primative free movie maker hidden in the bowels of Google Photos. Seek and you shall find.

I'm gonna try to use it.

SERIOUS AFTERTHOUGHT

To heck with updates, but I will say this. I'm completely incarcerated here. I lost every shred of my former freedom. Once they ensconce you in a hospital bed and ply you with medications, all is lost.

You become too weak to get up and too drugged to think. Eventually you're a vegetable without the ability to know who you were and where you are.

I have to employ a method of escape. By lying, faking, forgery, force.......

......or finally the ultimate escape.....from life itself.

I am that desperate.
