Lots of thoughts all at once right now. So I’ll share how my process works when that is true. First, I’ll write an opening few lines (as so), then I’ll write numbers and categories to remember ...


My wife has now been alive for 38 years. I can’t in good conciousness say she has turned 38 years old. Even she doesn’t deign to say such a thing. Because she knows that when you average ever...


So… I wrote about politics in my Prosebox. I appreciate most/many/just about all the notes I received. You folks know that I am a thoughtful person that rarely comes to opinions or decisions wi...


Okay… I know I’m a snob… it isn’t the first time I’ve said that. I grew up in places with populations over 100,000 people. With that in mind? Fuck rural communities! I have never had more tro...


Thank you all for reading and noting the last entry. Obviously, that has taken center stage in my mind today. It just… in a marriage, where you don’t hear “I love you”… don’t kiss occasionally…...


Friday night after MIL went to sleep and Wife and I adjourned to bed? I couldn’t sleep. At all. I tried. Wife fell asleep. And I lay in bed… trying. Honestly? I think it has just become to...


Wife’s mother is in town. She is staying at our place Friday night, Saturday, Sunday, into Monday. She is here for a big Iowa United Methodist function. I’ll say this: seeing Wife interact wit...


How much backstory is needed? Many weeks ago, I bought (for myself and Wife) tickets to a rare live event. I knew it would be one of those extraordinarily rare events that both Wife and I would e...


Interviews aren’t guarantees of jobs; but I like to think in terms of the law of averages. If you interview ONCE, you have ONE chance at getting hired. If you do 4 interviews in 1 month, you’ve...


Thank you all for the notes on my last Relationship entry. I’ve given it some thought and I appreciate what was stated. It makes a lot of sense to simply allow my Wife to feel and react the way...


This morning I woke early to get things done. Emptied the dishwasher, did a load of laundry, went out to get groceries… that last one may have been a mistake. Hot day. AND I’m a sweating kind ...


I am continually horrified by my country. The Baker Case was resolved yesterday. For those unfamiliar… a gay couple contacted a wedding cake business to make a cake for their wedding. The owner...


Stuff happened today. Other stuff happened today. This is another quick one. When we got home from seeing my parents (and brother, sister in law, niece, and Godfather), Wife decided to see what...


This isn’t a real entry and you are more than welcome to move on. However, I found the results of this internet quiz amusing enough to share. Everyone Is An Iconic Hero In The Streets And Superb...


Wow. I knew that the community would be supportive; but PB hit their target goal before I could even access the website today!! Impressive! :) Wife has authorized me to donate a specific amoun...


Last night, Wife said that she still hadn’t thought of a “good pose” for her picture with David Tennant. As common, more for her to obsess over and freak out about. Thus… when I started showing...


When I left for my workout yesterday… I had forgotten that it was the first day of Summer Vacation for most schools. And it was 98 degrees. UFDA! So… every parent dropped their child off at th...


Started my day with a bizarre nightmare with a clear message. I was working at a HUGE corporate law firm and it sucked! I was repeatedly asked to do seriously unethical things, almost criminal ...


Hey all: Thank you for your responses on my last entry. Well, thank you to most of you. There was one noter that seemed… how shall I put it? Troll-like. I may be incorrect as to the nature or...


This may be a strange entry. I don’t know how it will go but… for a few different reasons I wanted to just sit and kind of map how my day has been. Just… get an emotional landscape built, kind ...


I just discovered that after typing a Title, you can hit enter to begin writing your entry. I always used TAB but accidentally hit enter and… huh. Cool. Oh… I did do my weekly weigh in this wee...


Now, really, I don’t mean to complain but when there are perfect examples of things I do want to bring them here to shed a little light onto the world. I got home from the gym around 5:00. Wife ...


So… no sleep for me again last night. In the last two weeks… that would be my 3rd night of zero sleep. Neck/Back/Left Leg issues. Plus my body is weird. Hate the heat because I sweat like som...


Let’s call it… Emotional Writer’s Block. So… Friday was a giant fight with my Wife. Saturday was an all day shopping trip for Wife’s CosPlay. Sunday was quite literally a nothing day. Nothing. W...


So… Saturday....... I slept in. Dreaming. Please see my Members Only Explicit Entry to read that dream… strange, sexy, and… I think I know what was going on… but not entirely certain. But yeah...
