This is Thursday, February 17, 2022, and today is my mom & dad’s wedding anniversary as well as Lisa and my anniversary. How this brilliant woman put up with my jokes and other mistakes for 26 years, I have no idea. Marriage isn’t always easy, but she has made it pretty easy for me. Have …

Day 21,338
It is Wednesday morning, February 16, and the newspaper has yet to arrive, and likely won’t before we all have to get going on our workday. It’s becoming a trend. Odin is over by Lisa begging for food, attention, or both. He’s spoiled rotten because he not only gets treats and eats his treats, he …

Day 21,337
It is Tuesday morning, February 15, and it is early. Right now I’m pulling a little double duty, as I’m going through my regular morning routine, and cranking out my blog post as well. I have volunteered to participate in a new program, and part of my preparation for the new responsibilities is sitting in …

Day 21,336
It is Monday, Valentine’s Day, February 14, of the year 2022. The Rams won the Super Bowl, and I’m happy for them. Some friends of mine are Bengals fans, and I feel their pain. Back to my corner of the world… We’re a little cold this morning. After I got done with my tabletop game …

Day 21,335
It’s a casual Sunday morning, a Super Bowl Sunday, February 13, 2022. I probably ought to look at Valentine’s Day stuff. I also need to make my Scotch Eggs. Lisa has started the day by making breakfast and starting a pot of coffee. I’m watching the talking heads on Sunday morning talk shows discussing the …

Day 21,334
It is Saturday, February 12. I’m enjoying my day, noodling around on computer stuff, running an errand or two, and thinking about stuff. Sometimes I think I’m better off not thinking about stuff. Think too much about one side of a debate or another, lean a particular way due to personal experience and life philosophy, …

Day 21,333
It is Friday, the end of a long week, and the 11th day of February. I’m reminded of a conversation I had before the turn of the century, all the back in the 90’s. The topic had to do with being necessary to a business’s operations. Is it good to be irreplaceable? I argued that …

Day 21,332
It is Thursday, February 10… yes, the year hasn’t changed, it’s still 2022. I’m watching the news, an interview with a White House correspondent (Maggie Haberman) who has a book coming out about Trump. I have a feeling Trump will soon be releasing some press release about how the author is bad, the book is …

Day 21,331
It is Wednesday morning, February 9, 2022. Right now I’m catching up to the day’s news, and I’m still kind of stuck on the GOP’s definition of “legitimate political discourse”, which apparently means it’s ok to beat a Capitol police officer with a flag pole if you’re doing it in support of the former guy. …

Day 21,330
It is Tuesday, February 8, 2022, or as I call it, “the morning after”. I know that I write about my interests in various sports, and last night was a sportsball kind of night. For the third time in a row, my KU Jayhawks fell to the Texas Longhorns in basketball. It was one of …
