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 sho...
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...
Utterly Boring
92 degrees. That was the high today and it felt like it too. Summer might as well already be here, because these are definitely not springtime temperatures. Life in Southern California. It'...
Moving Right Along
Jackie and April are both on vacation. Not together or anything. While they're both good friends of mine, they don't know each other, nor do they know of each other. They're members of my ci...
Mumbling Shit
My travels across the YouTube landscape today brought me through the sad and unfortunate world of mumble rap. I don't know what brought me there, but I will say this. If the world of rap had...
By The Numbers
83 = Degrees in Fahrenheit. That was the high temperature today. I suppose this is considered an improvement over the anticipated high that was forecasted, which had today's high predicted...
Drained And Dry
Sometimes pretending to be an extrovert can be especially draining. Funny enough, I put on that show at work almost seven days a week. I should be more tired than I already am, but I guess I'm...
Burning That Bridgerton
Earlier today, a friend had asked me if I was still watching the Bridgerton series on Netflix. No, I am not. I guess the latest season of Bridgerton had released earlier in the year. I st...
Another Workday
If you've been reading my entries or have been following me even in a sporadic capacity, you know that that I maintain a stable, though lengthy work schedule. It's not unusual for me to work u...
Open Diary Dies...Finally
Open Diary has finally died. Frankly, it took way the hell too long for it to die. Extending its life for that extra month did nothing to rid it of the disease and excrement that had manage...
The Health And Work Balancing Act
I decided that it was finally time to return to the doctor and today was that day. I had scheduled this appointment last month and here we are. I was supposed to have gone for this diabetes ch...
Needlessly Distracted
People are stupid. That's always going to be a thing. Someone almost died today because of someone else's stupidity. I think I wrote in an entry just last week about there having been a loca...
Another Mundane Sunday
Are the Winter Olympics finally over? I happened to randomly come across the story on Yahoo that the United States beat Canada to take the gold medal in ice hockey today. Whatever. I don't f...
Enduring The Cold And A Little "Recreation"
I didn't do much today. I meant to be more productive than I was, but I don't think I got there. I can't even say that I tried. I suppose I just went through the motions. Maybe I was tire...
