  • 2018-03-07 Exactly Right Now

    Sometimes you just have to go with the flow, you know. After school today, everyone was pretty tired (except C who is never too tired to dive into a video game). We chilled on the couch talking for a while waiting for the kids’ Dad to show up and present Z with cut flowers. 🙄…

  • 2018-03-07 Exactly Sixteen Years Ago

    Last night I could barely keep my eyes open past 9PM, I was so tired. I’m truly not sure what I was so tired from, because I barely did anything at all yesterday. I didn’t really work and did mostly running around shopping for my Z and a little writing. Dinner with the kids and…

  • 2018-03-06 A Little Dose of Reality Goes a Long Way

    Two converging topics this AM. I think that nobody is completely immune from “grass is always greener” syndrome. I talk to people in all kinds of situations and the common thread is that they all have the shit they are dealing with. We have a tendency to look over that fence and see what we…

  • 2018-03-05 Just a Little “I Told You So”

    “Wait a day”. That’s what I think I said. In truth it could be almost any amount of time. A day, a week, a few hours, a year. Change is inevitable. I woke up this morning to severe overcast and rain. And it’s not that warm spring rain that makes the emerging crocus and daffodils…

  • 2018-03-04 Peculiar Weather Patterns

    What a week! Such highs and lows all in the same 7 days. It’s like the weather in Nebraska, wait a day and it will change. Sometimes dramatically. First I’ll start with the the baseline, to establish there is sill some consistency and order in the world. For me, that’s the exercise.. 20.3k average steps…

  • 2018-03-03 Uninspired

    Last night I could not even get through like five pages of my new text without 1). Having my mind go off in several different tangent directions about the subject matter (Poetry as Discourse) more I want to consider as it relates to the text and 2). Wanting to fall asleep. Because that’s what reading…

  • 2018-02-03 Fast Forward Friday

    It was the morning, now all of a sudden it is night. That is how my Friday has gone. Today has been a little off. A little outside the lines. A little of everything unexpected, yet nothing so far out I couldn’t just roll with it. It’s going to end the way it typically does,…

  • 2018-03-01 Part 3 – The Hangover

    When we last left our fateful hero’s, they were staring down at the bottom of a bottle of wine, with empty glasses in hand. Their fingers were on the keyboard possitioned and ready for brilliance to flow as easily from them as the cheap wine that had just played out a most impressive disappearing act.…
