Night before last I met up with an old, old friend and former drinking buddy. He was part of the crew of guys I used to hang out with back in the 90s and very early 00s. For the most part, I wa...

Well, I did it. I organized my clothes over the weekend – clothing being step one in the KonMari method of organizing and decluttering that I’m working on mastering (see previous entry for a lin...

---

It’s almost the weekend. I’ve had all of my meetings today and I’m ready to get the eff out of here so I can start my Friday night. It’s gonna be a cold one but at least it’s the weekend, right...

---

Seriously, I didn’t mean to come across as a cavalier asshole in my last entry. I care a lot about what you guys think for various reasons: (1) I know a lot of you in real life now; (2) I like ...

---

I am so sad that the end of the weekend is here. So very sad. Friday night with the married pilot went of without a hitch. He was a complete and utter gentleman. He picked me up at my place ...

---

Yeah, see. There are days when I come to work and everything works smoothly and things go right and everyone likes everyone else and I feel really dumb for wanting to leave this place to go do s...

---

Nearly 10 days into the year, so I thought I’d check in to let you know how my plans are going and maybe to get myself even more motivated. I have to be honest and say that the dumb smoke detect...

---

Dudes, seriously? It all started pretty quietly Sunday night. Was having a relaxing evening, winding down the holidays and getting ready for the work week - first day back in the office after go...

---

I don’t know, man. Dancing is fun, but dance clubs are weird if you’re 48 years old. Still, Em had to dance, so dance we did. I ended up with 21,000 steps on my Fitbit on Friday, and 10,000+ mo...

---

I was kind of naughty last night. I ended up going to meet my neighbors at this local downtown bar, but as soon as I got there, they asked if I’d check out another place “next door”. Sure, fine...

---

Wow. Where the fuck did that year go? What did I accomplish in 2015? Hm. A whole lotta nothing. I’m pretty sure it’s because I didn’t make any plans. Making resolutions, or at least some ki...

---

Had my meet and greet lunch with Small Town Church Guy yesterday. He’s the guy who saw me at Christmas Eve service at my parents’ tiny church. We met at a Lebanese place (one of the choices I’d...

---

…and of course, all hell is breaking loose. I made it a point not to look at my emails while I was on vacation. I don’t know if it was a good thing or not, but of course, there’s tons to be do...

---

First and foremost, Merry Christmas! It’s been a mellow one, folks. And I’ve liked it that way for the most part. I’m at my parents’ place. Have been here since noon yesterday, Christmas ...

---

Gifts are all wrapped. Vanilla treats done. Champagne is already chillin’ at my parents’ place (thanks to leaving the bottle at Thanksgiving). I think I’m ready to head over there tomorrow. Ha...

---

I needed that trip so badly. Today I’m back in the office, but still California Dreaming. Here are ten things about the rest of the trip! Last I wrote about it, I was in Dana Point and gettin...

---

…do I need to take more vacation days. Well, as you can see, I’ve broken the Ginge-A-Thon, so now I kinda need to start a new thing to help keep me writing every day. I am just back home from m...

---

Can I just say that the Bulldog is definitely in his element here on the West Coast. He’s a California boy from birth, and I have no idea why he lives in our town. Well, I do know why he first ...

---

I’m late. Awesome day! Catch up tomorrow. Love you bunches! GS

---

I don’t know how much I can write. The Bulldog is here in the room with me doing some of his work stuff. It’s weird, ya’ll. A lot like it was way back when. It’s nice, but not reality, and I’m...

---

On a plane bound for LAX and I don’t know whether I’ll get the chance to write some more tonight or not, so I’m going to take this moment now and I can, I’ll come back and finish this out. Oy, th...

---

Well, I may barely squeak this one out. It’s five minutes until midnight here where I am and I’m not quite done packing for my trip. Worked until 9:00 tonight and I’m still not done with my two ...

---

Another delicious day. I’d give it an 8. Started out this morning with a walk a few blocks down to where there was a marathon taking place. It was rainy and cold, but the air was magical. It w...

---

God, I love weekends. I live for them now. Today was another gloriously quiet Saturday. I still have a lot to do with regards to prepping for next week. The only interesting thing I have to re...

---

I just ghosted a party! Yes I did. It was my neighbor’s party, and I wasn’t even planning to go, but I was late coming home from work and I walked the dog and the smokers caught me outside and ...
