2024-12-10 My current “would you rather” situation…
I’m so tired. My sleep has been shit lately but I my creative spark has been lit and that’s probably the reason. What a trade off, huh?! I mean, after all the blah blah woof woof about “What Next” and existential dread this year – the woe is me and “whatever will I do since…

2024-10-31 A Spooky Sort of Update…
It feels great to be back on my elliptical machine. It was pretty depressing to be away for so long. The sadness and melancholy I suffered the last couple months was primarily due the big shift in my routine, but as life typically has it, the injury was not the only contributing factor to my…

2024-10-29 Still Kicking It (The Can, Down the Road)
September came and went. October too, it seems. How easily time slips away when… whenever, however, whatever always happens.

Mostly…

2024-08-01 The Power of Choice
If there’s one thing I’ve learned in life it is that I am the ONLY person responsible for my happiness. For support in all the other colors of the rainbow, I will gladly lean on those around me who I can trust in times of need, but for that pesky fleeting golden ticket known as…

2024-07-19 Look How Far We’Ve Come…
I’ve got a lot of updates to share but that’s not what’s really on my mind. You know, the things that are going Ok like my daughter being 8000 miles away and my son enjoying life, save for maybe those shifts flipping burgers, or even my own stuff. It’s all going good and I’ve cycled…
