NATIONAL NIGHTMARE: DAY ONE
Wow. So, here we are. The beginning of the end. Last night, when I left work, I walked right over to the local liquor store and bought a case of beer.

Current Proof of Life: Current Auditory Stimulation: Current Musings: The world outside my window is a swirl of greens dancing on the wind, people mowing their lawns and walking their dogs, the birds taking wing to the sky and the squirrels skittering across branches. A world in motion, as I sit behind this keyboard and thinkContinue reading “Current Status: Sunday, May 22nd |10:04am”
My Father
Once, when I was very young, I remember watching my dad work. The image of him sawing wood and measuring where that wood would go is clear and vivid in my mind, as though I just saw it yesterday. I don’t remember what prompted it, but I do remember saying “I want to be just likeContinue reading “My Father”

That phone call was to let me know that my grandfather did not have much longer to live and that a second phone call would soon come to let me know when he was gone. It was a very difficult and strange stretch of time between those phoneContinue reading “The Space Between”

Hoo boy. A lot has happened in the brief two months since my last post. The weather has begun its shift from icy winds licking at your skin and the skies tearing open to blanket the world in fresh snow, to assorted peeks at the tans and muted greens of what was once and willContinue reading “Dispatch From The Void”

Full of fresh starts and brimming with potential. Will this year be better than the last? Will I be happier and healthier andContinue reading “Current Status: Sunday, January 10th 2016 | 1:52am”

You Are Here
Just a friendly reminder that no matter how badly your day has gone (today has not been a good one for me) so far, just another twirl around of this tiny rock, and a new day will dawn. Fresh beginnings, every twenty-four hours. We sit upon a rock, within a bubble of air and gas,Continue reading “You Are Here”

Current Proof of Life: Current Soundtrack: Current Rambling: Much has happened since my last update. Love won, we said hello to Pluto for the first time, and Comic-Con kicked everyone in the collective ass. I’ll get to all of that eventually. Another thing that happened is my mother was admitted to the hospital. This all started backContinue reading “Current Status: Friday | July 17th 2015 | 10:10pm”
