Current Proof of Life: Current Audio Saturation:   Current Ramblings: The snow has receded early this year, giving us a preview of spring. The brown tattered grass and naked tree branches seem as unprepared for the death of winter as the rest of us. Sunlight warming my face, gentle breezes on the air instead of

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. I then went to the local supermarket and bought a chimichanga. When I got home, I flipped on CNN, took a deep breath, and

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.

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,

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 back
