Can’t stay up too late, I have to get up early in the morning and get ready to teach Exchange 2016 for five days this week. Exchange is one of my old, reliables. I’ve been teaching Microsoft messaging systems since the Microsoft Mail 3.2 days. I enjoy it, and I am very comfortable with the …

I’m kind of weird when it comes to social interaction. Sometimes I’m on, sometimes I’m so on that I’m over the top on, and a lot of the time I just want to crawl in a corner and get away from people. Sound like anybody you know? I heard a term some time ago, “ambivert”. …

I have a temper. I do my best to manage it, but sometimes I don’t manage it as well as I probably could, and should. I don’t like myself very much when I lose it. I get a little loud, I get a little defensive, I get a lot of things that I don’t like about myself. …

Today my youngest daughter discovered “Game of Thrones”. Lord, have mercy on the girl. I’ve read the books, and like millions of other fans, I hope he can complete the tale before he passes from this mortal existence. What George R.R.

I was thinking earlier today about the way certain people describe situations, people, events, and how they add adjectives. I was thinking how odd it is that one prominent person in the US government uses superlatives as descriptors at every opportunity. Things in his mind’s eye are always the best or the worst or something …

My wrist still hurts, and I really don’t feel like writing, but write I must. And for good reason. My mom shared a little something with me today. She’s been keeping a journal, too. Earliest entries from 23 years ago. Memories important enough that she took the time to write them down. Memories that she …

OK, a bit of a recap. The runners people put down as decorative floor coverings can kill a human being. I got lucky today, only catching my rear foot while I was stepping over it, and proceeding to kiss my chin off an appliance. Tried to catch myself on the way down. Now I have …

I have pledged to write two hundred words as part of my #WriteChain pledge. Two. Hundred. Words. I suppose I could phone it in and call that “technically” good. I’m just not into it tonight. I could end up writing two hundred words about my lack of ambition and motivation. I don’t think Reince Priebus …
