Surveys and Thoughts Part 2 in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
The following was written on Friday, April 17, 2020 between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 11:00 p.m. I have to admit, every morning I wake up with a CPAP on my face. Helping me breathe. And I sit ...
Surveys and Thoughts Part 1 in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
First, I’d just like to say that I am reading my favorites and friends on Prosebox but find that I am not noting almost at all. Not for a lack of care, not for a lack of interest, but simply… a ...
The Night Thoughts in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
Do you know what is keeping me up tonight? Social things. Social has gone online. Martha facetimed me, my parents call me, I play a FnD game online, but the majority of social is via things like...
Silver Lining or Just a Note in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
I will say this… prior to the onset of COVID19 protections, I was thinking that going into the office was stupid. There was no point to it, it was lame, I didn’t want to do it. I could just wor...
Political in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
What follows are not my words; but after another rousing day of “Joe Biden is a rapist, white racist and voting for Liberal Trump is bullshit. I don’t care if Sanders supports him!!” I felt… this...

Iowa is still seeing an increasing number of C19 cases. New cases admitted to the hospital every day. In her daily briefing, the Governor said that we don’t expect to see the peak of this until...
JUDGE ME HARSHLY in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
Perhaps this entry will be among those that readers would say should never have been shared. I accept that. But my heart, my mind, my soul desires to share what is locked within. So do judge m...
Folks Return to Dumb in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
It is Friday, April 10th. Our Governor, who still has not issued a Shelter In Place Decree, is holding fast that the State will be open and free of restrictions on April 30th. Obviously, as I w...
The Days March On in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
I hope everyone is faring okay. I know many of us are not; but hopefully there are pockets of comfort, of happiness, of support. Last night via Laptop, I communicated with a friend in the Bronx...
A Brief Update in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
Hello, all. A brief update. Though I’ll admit my brain ain’t all exactly there right now. (1) I… like many studies show throughout the United States… am sleeping like shit. HOWEVER what the st...
Just a Status Update in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
Blah. Just how I’m feeling right now. Well, that and… (1) I want to take a nap. I’m feeling… just over all kind of crummy. So I want to take a nap. But I can’t because one of the rookie atto...
Truth Bum in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
I’ll admit… I’m starting to get punchy. Not so much just from the “stay at home” stuff, actually. If it was “stay home” and that was it… I’d be okay, honestly. But the “stay home” while “conti...
Friday, April 3, 2020 in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
One thing that hits me about living through unprecedented, meaning almost assuredly historic times in a digital age is… I’m worried the archaeologists were right. Back when I was in college and ...
Thursday the Second in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
Had to go into the office today. The good news is that I am the only one in the building so less risk. It is interesting, though. I hadn’t been to the County Seat for a while. The town where ...
Puppy in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
Nala started this week with a limp and that limp seems to be getting worse but only towards the end of the day. Otherwise, she seems typically capable of her daily life. But for her deep lack o...
COVID Impressions in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
It is interesting. I hear a lot of people essentially screaming, “I AM TIRED OF TALKING ABOUT COVID!” And I get it. A meme I like says, “This month has been a hell of a decade!” We’re all loo...
Last Day of March in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
Good News: One of the biggest professional worries we were facing stems from timing. According to the laws of the Nation and the State; there are specific deadlines required in any and all crim...
Bugger in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
Can’t sleep. That is annoying. Bah! On the good news front: official “work from home” order. Which is helping me really set up a nice Home Office. Not to mention gives me the opportunity to...
Call It in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
Call me a broken record, but I’m seriously reconsidering some things. The hate mail I was talking about? Is because I live in an Agriculture State so that the laws specifically treat Livestock N...
Here's an Update in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
It is late… actually, not really but my sense of time lately is totally fucked up so for me- I’m saying it is late. After an entire week of telling my boss that we should all be working from home...
On The Law Generally in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
I know that Red State Sentiments should stop surprising me. I mean, I have lived in either Iowa or Nebraska since 1984. My father is a passionate die-hard conservative. My brother is a liberta...
Staving Off in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
Okay… shit. Staving off depression is kind of hard in these times. Our country is being run by addle-brained homunculi who are about fifteen days away from announcing compulsory service in the ...
REPLY ALL in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020
