Hey folks. I went and took a look at my word count for the month, and I was pleased to see that my word count for the month of October met and exceeded expectations. The count is growing, and sometimes I actually post something worth reading. I’m in the middle of a travel week, and …

Getting to be about the right time for me to check my day count. I’ve been thrown off before, I will no likely be off again at some point. Funny how you can look at the same numbers day after day, the number of days you’ve had in your life, and still find inconsistencies. Some …

It’s a Tuesday night in the Twin Cities, and I am going to keep this short and sweet, and not worry too much about the volume of words I’m committing to paper. I had a delivery today as part of the Azure Training Days program, and I had a full house. Literally. There was not …

It’s a little after 9:30 on a Monday night, this last Monday night in the month of October. I have had a full day of Azure Fundamentals training, along with a moderately satisfying proctored testing session to get another group of IT professionals certified on Azure. My life is curious. I’m traveling, living a life …

It’s 9:42 on a Sunday night at the Courtyard by Marriott closest to the airport in Minneapolis-St. Paul. I’m in my hotel room, partially satisfied by the late Grubhub delivery of cold Chinese food. The Chiefs and the Packers have put on a good show so far, but the Chiefs put the ball on the …

Hey everybody! It’s old fat Grampa Bob coming to you live on a Saturday night, October 26, 2019… sometime before the coming fall of civilization. I hope that turns out to be a joke. I have about two hundred words to crank out, so this is going to follow my typical format of going off …

It’s a Friday night i rural Douglas County, and I’m thinking about dancing. Yeah, weird, I know. But seriously, I’m watching “Raising Dion” on Netflix, and the side arc about Dion’s mom being a dancer reminds me of some of the people I was friends with back when I was at Wichita State. Some of …

It’s a Thursday night in rural Douglas County. The trash can has been taken down to the road, and the take-out barbecue leftovers have been put in the fridge. Kansas played Fort Hays State tonight in an exhibition game, and came out with a 30 point win, as predicted by yours truly (I have witnesses). …

OK, I missed a day yesterday, so you know what that means – some ridiculous stream of thought blog entry that covers way too much territory in four hundred words, and when you luck at the blog entry as a whole, it is somehow less than the sum of its parts. I had a pretty …

You know how have those nights where ripping off two hundred words is the easiest thing in the world? Tonight is not one of those nights. The funny thing now is that I get to thinking about the day, the good things and the bad things that kept me grinding through the day. I could …
