Day 19,649

July 4, 2017 I’m thinking a lot today about what it means to be an American. I’ve been called a traitor by some that support the current administration, but I feel like I’m supporting some pretty American traits in my defiance of the Russian candidate. Sounds a bit like “The Manchurian Candidate”. Our country and …

I need to think about reading more fiction again. I love fiction. Heck, I love books. For the last few years, however, I’ve been primarily focused on reading via audio books. I do love the format, as it adds a degree of portability that you just don’t get from the traditional medium. I can listen …

Day 19,647

OK, rough weekend. Lost a friend. Watching “The Shack” again. Sometimes you just want to scream. Doesn’t help that my back is ripped again. Too much yard work, trying to get the house back on the market. Pretty jacked up how just bending over to pull a weed can jack up the back of a …

I realize that there a very few people that honestly give a shit about what I have to say, or how I’m feeling at any given moment, and that’s OK. Seriously… how often do we stop and ask people how they are doing, and say it in such a manner that we invite a real, feeling …

It’s a Friday night. Good things have happened. We’ve made a little progress on the house, getting ready to go back on the market. I passed a certification exam today. Took care of some business at the bank. Picked up goodies for tomorrow’s gaming session with the crew in Topeka. I passed a certification exam. …

Let me just get this out there for anybody that actually reads my blog posts, and I do realize there are very few out there that do. If you and I are hanging out, and something spectacular happens, that’s great. But… If you ask me about the best way to memorialize the moment, and I …

I hate it when things happen that upset my wife. I love her, I care about her, and I want her world to be free of worry, anxiety, and pain. I want to make all of the bad things go away, and her world to be full of only the most beautiful things. I dream …

Day 19,642

I love my wife. I want my wife to be happy. Right now my wife is not happy. That means I’m not happy. We had an inspection of our home today, as part of the process of getting the house ready for a prospective buyer. Last month, as part of our plan to make our …

Day 19,641

Today I’m struggling a bit. There are any number of things that I think I would like to post about, but I’m not sure it would be wise if I posted on certain subjects right now. I always have something to say about the current administration, but I figure drawing attention is unnecessary. There’s an …

Day 19,640

Sometimes you are in the flow, sometimes you aren’t. So, I’m watching the old Metallica documentary “Some Kind of Monster” and I’m watching the drama. I’m watching Lars pounding out fractionally rhythmic percussion riffs, Hetfield being Hetfield, and Kirk being the coolest guy in the band because somebody has the coolest guy in the band. My …
