    2025-07-02 Welcome to July

    After my last post a friend of mine messaged me and said “good luck doing nothing.” Or something like that and it’s true… I set an intention for June to do less. I wanted to minimize the pressure I constantly feel to do more or counterbalance that feeling that I’m never doing enough. How frustrating…

    2025-01-09 Ain’t Nobody Got Time For That

    Bronchitis. It’s a bummer.  I’ve been feeling unwell off and on for about a month. Each time I feel like I’m starting to feel better, I take another turn and get worse again. Yeah… really rotten.  I’m still feeling pretty positive about life in general, but man, it would be even better if I could…

    2024-08-16 A Fresh Take on Over Half Over

    August is officially over half over. The year is over half over. My life is over half over.  Oh no?! Another melancholy post about existential dread and crooning over what the purpose of life is and what it all means??!!  No. Nope. Not today.  A few weeks ago (or maybe it was just last week)…

    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…

    2024-05-01 Time keeps on slippin, slippin, slippin…

    Welcome to May. May 1st. Mayday, May poles, and May baskets for those who believe in the magic of history and tradition.  Mayday is probably one of those historical traditions that was lost with my parent’s generation. I have vague memories of it from my childhood, putting together baskets and leaving them on doorsteps of…

    2023-12-23 The Antidote

    About a week ago I posted about all the things that get my ire up. It wasn’t necessarily a grumpy post but I can see where someone might find it particularly glass-is-half-empty. Since then I’ve been thinking, which is a prickly business but very human of me. There have been several events that have transpired…

    2023-12-17 This One IS About Sandwiches 🥪

    The word of the month is “sandwich” and every variation of the word — sandwiches, sandwiched, sand witch, and sandwicher.  Why?  Because I said so.  Ok. So it doesn’t have to be every person’s word of the month but if I have to “observe” something as dumb as Valentine’s Day, then I for sure can…
