Hey gang! I know you guys don’t exist yet, but I’m trying to share a little about my life here in 2018. Sometimes, things just get weird. And stuff got a little weird tonight. I was kind of joking around with an old high school classmate, another classmate was mentioned, and I replied. OK, the …

Day 20,124
It’s a beautiful clear night sky in rural Douglas County, and I’m pretty clear tonight, as well. OK, so being a technical trainer doesn’t make me a hero. I dispense information, and I show people how to implement the available technology into their environment. I’m happy if I know that I’ve helped somebody solve a …

Day 20,123
Monday night in rural Douglas County. Just stuck my nose outside, and it’s a crisp fall night, with clear skies and a magnificent view of the constellation Orion. Taught the first day of a two-day custom class. I’d like to say that the first day went off without a hitch, but that wouldn’t be the …

Day 20,122
Hey gang. Time to do that blog thing, and I’ve got to do a little nostalgia fill. I first became involved in theater while I was in junior high. I played the villain in an old-style melodrama called “The Purloined Pearls” while I was in 7th grade. At least one notable friendship ensued from that experience, …

Day 20,121
A crazy Saturday night, with all sorts of emotions going through my heart and mind. Yeah, it’s going to be one of those sorts of blog entries. I don’t think I’ll have any problem getting to 200 words tonight. Dane is having a good day with his marching band competition. I think my wife and her …

Day 20,119
It’s Thursday night in rural Douglas County, and I’m in a bit of a relaxed groove, watching a football, and doing a little research and reading. Internet here in the county is being a little squirrely. I’ve not been happy with the internet access here ever since we set it up. We’ll see what happens …

Day 20,118
Nothing quite like sitting in the living room on a Wednesday night watching an episode of “Criminal Minds” about multigenerational serial killers. Ugh. It’s one of my wife’s favorite shows. I get that. I’m a little more of a dreamer, I guess. Not much into murder mysteries. Definitely not into shows where the victims are the …

Day 20,117
There are days that I embrace the blog entry, there are days that I just sort of slog through the day and then face that creative wall that is my daily blog entry. It’s not you. It’s me. So in the news lately, Sen. Elizabeth Warren decided to divulge that she has had a DNA …

Day 20,116
Hello, gentle reader! ‘Tis I, your humble friend relaying to you the events of the day. Yanked an old molar out of my head today. That went better than I expected. It hurts a little bit, but itis certainly not as bad as I thought it would be. The biggest problem I have right now …
