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...
Same Old Routine
Work continues to be work, though slowly, but surely, I am climbing out from the hole that I've been festering inside for much of the past three or four months. I suppose I'm still busy, thoug...
Water Falling From The Sky
I don't know why this is even a thing, but yet again, the roadways were not entirely clear today. I again happened to drive by some manner of roadkill. I couldn't tell what it was. The best...
Them Raccoons Is Roadkill
Was it a skunk? Maybe it was a raccoon? Then again, could it have been a midget just balled up in the fetal position? I wasn't sure at the time, being that I drove by pretty fast, but in...
Mindless Drivel
9 Celsius. I don't know why I bothered to jot down and note the current temperature outside and I can't even come up with a plausible explanation as to why I even bothered to notate the ...
USC Trojan Quarterback Gets His First Super Bowl Ring
Yes, technically Super Bowl 60 has not yet gone final, but barring some kind of historic, catastrophic meltdown by the Seattle Seahawks, Sam Darnold and Company will beat the hapless New England...
Super Bowl Whatever
Super Bowl 60 is tomorrow and yet again, I will not be watching the game, as I have zero interest in the game itself, as well as all the related festivities. I don't give a damn about the...
