2023-03-19 Where were they going without ever knowing the way?
Today’s post is brought to you by the song “The Way” by the band Fastball, which I’ve committed to listening to on repeat until I’m good and satisfied with where my mind is going… As a child I frequently daydreamed about running away from where I was and being somewhere else–anywhere else. Often that “somewhere…

2023-03-15 Averting My Eyes on the Ides
What a strange day. I remembered the Ides were coming up a few days ago and then forgot again. Then all day today I had this strange feeling something was off. Might have been that 4AM wake up. Might have been the feeling of being too tired coupled with an unusually productive morning. Might be…

2022-06-28 A Day In The Life
Today’s experiment, after waking up at 4 AM and only four hours of sleep (I was revising poems till midnight), is data mining a “day in the life.” It’s a little research project I dreamed up after having not just one or two run-ins with my errant brain and its memory flaws, but a whole…

2022-02-13 The One About Memory and Time. And Rocks… 🪨
I think about time quite a bit, and about memory too. I think about an hourglass glued to the table; the lyric of a song stuck in my mind for a lifetime. I can’t escape the curve of it, the gravity, the sensation of something you can’t really hold on to that’s slipping away. I’ve…

I started with my music…

2021-02-11 A Quick Trip on the Memory Train
I’m walking. I’m walking. I’ve got nothing today. A full set list of stuff to get done today while I’m stranded at home. Jeep won’t start again and is parked at Jim’s office. He took my car to work today. It’s ok because it’s the first day of my period (cuz I know you wanted…

2020-09-11 Does Time Have Memory?
Time is a construct. It’s a concept developed by humans to keep track, count, measure, and communicate. We also use instances in time to attempt to accurately remember. Humanity has many flaws and we’re all afflicted by the loss of time and an inability to retain the sharp details of experience. The farther away we…

2018-08-08 Our Twisted Memories
Well.. both my kids are registered for school and they start in about one week. It could not come soon enough for me, considering every day is a fight to get bandwidth on my home internet. Yesterday my daughter basically said to me “you just need to call and get a better plan”. What??! Whatever.…
