Stop, Look, Listen (To Your Heart)
One of the best ways I know of to relax and unwind is to throw on some oldies. I do this at night, during the day, or whenever I want to escape the rigors of the world and lose myself in some m...
Random Thoughts - 06/08/26
I enjoyed a bag of peanut butter M&M's today. As I've said before, I'm not the best diabetic. Peanut butter and chocolate make quite the pair. Women who use the word "bro" consistently ...
Just Another Sunday
I didn't do much today, which is typical for me on Sundays. I worked a little bit this morning and then I pretty much didn't do anything in the afternoon. I spent the majority of the aft...
From Misdemeanor To Funky Enough
The music continues to die, but given how life is, this should be of little surprise. This past Thursday (June 6th), I learned that another musician who got their start in the 1970's had rece...
A Whole New World
That's where he'll be heading, if he's not there already. Earlier today, singer Peabo Bryson died. He was 75. From what I'm understanding, he suffered a stroke on May 31st. He would neve...
Passing The Time
Temperatures in Southern California were definitely elevated this weekend. This previous week may have spoiled us, even if briefly, with temperatures last week typically remaining under 80 degr...
I Can't Tell You Why
Mom had a birthday today. She would've turned 75. She wasn't the type to celebrate her birthday, but I still regard the day as a form of holiday. Had I not been so busy at work, I might have ...
Joy And Pain
Cher turned 80 earlier this week. She keeps on keeping on, as they say. Had her ex-husband and former band mate, Sonny Bono, not slammed into that tree while skiing back in January 1998 ...
Blowing Chunks
I think that last time I vomited occurred in February 2021. That would be a few years ago. My streak of five years and three months of being vomit-free ended this past Wednesday (05/13). I h...
Slow Day
I spent less than a half hour at the doctor today. Nurse practitioner visit, if we're going to be technical. I came in to have my blood pressure read. That was the only thing that happened. ...
Just Another Day
Another Mother's Day has come and gone. Mom has missed the last seven of these and obviously, she's going to miss a bunch more of these. She died in 2018. Even when she was alive, she ...
Random Inquiries
I want to give credit to Prosebox user "idontknowwhattocallmyself" for posting these following three questions as part of a "Question Of The Day" entry. I opted to create a separate entry o...
Apples And...
The ground shook twice today. The first minor earthquake hit this morning at 5:53am. The second one struck over 12 hours later at 6:40pm. If I had to put a time on how long the earth shook in...
Charley & That Dumb Broad
My mundane life continues. I haven't written much of late, but that's pretty much because I didn't really have much to write about. In some capacity, I still don't really have much to write a...
Meaningless Thoughts
I had a bunch of things going through my head today, some good and some not so good, and I had intended to write a more meaningful entry, but in the end, I just didn't feel like writing any of ...
Nursing That Calf Muscle
My right calf still hurts, but I'm walking much more normally than I did two days ago when I pulled that calf muscle. I'm thinking that come Monday and barring any unforeseen setbacks, I shou...
She'll Tell You...
She'll tell you that she needs me, but she is content with going without my words. I try to speak, but in the end, nothing comes out. Normally, my words are powerful, whether spoken or written...
Just Breathing
Today was uneventful and for the most part, I was minimally productive. Yesterday, I was battling what I could best describe as an itchiness in my stomach. It lasted for much of the morning. ...
Different Strokes
In the few weeks since her second stroke in just under a six-week span, Morie's mother is considered to be stable. At this point, from what Morie tells me, that might be about as good as he...
Running Caffeinated
I don't drink coffee often. At most, I might drink it twice a week. I'm not a coffee junkie and never have been. I've never needed it, not even during my college years, and I have always fou...
Keeping It Moving
I have zero motivation to write, yet here I am. That song below is proving to be quite the inspiration. Not really. I just happened to be listening to this song as I write this. I've alway...
Nothing Doing
She had a birthday this past week. I know that I'm writing about it, but honestly, I don't care. This is one of those rare instances where I'm upset that I have a memory for dumb shit like th...
Nobody Nose
She had completely misread what I had told her and really, I just thought that she and I were having just one of our typical open and honest conversations, the kind where I thought that we c...
On The Way Out?
Palliative care. Hospice care. I know they're similar, though not necessarily the same, but still. Nobody wants to hear that. We all know what this means. Someone's on the brink of de...
Heated, But Bland
Apparently, there's a heatwave tormenting much of Southern California. I believe that yesterday and today, temperatures eclipsed 100 degrees. Those would be your typical temperatures during Ma...
