After talking with Wife and my Father… I really want to go after this job. By the end of the day, come hell or high water, I will have submitted my application. I checked my work contract and t...


Great (sarcasm). Now I’m obsessing. There is a reason I try to stick through with things… keeping your head down and following through on what is expected of you comes with a lot less emotional ...


Last night, I felt this gigantic sense of dread deep inside of me. This… darkness where I did not want to go to sleep because I knew I’d be waking up and coming to work. That is how (at least t...


On Relationships and Sex: Last night, I had a very graphic and very detailed dream (as I so often do) where I cheated on my wife. But the truth is more worrying. I stick to it. My resolve on se...


On my long ass drive to a required 9 hour UNPAID work event, I had time to think. What I thought: Before the age of 18, I was an award-winning published poet, multiple award winning musician, and...


This week is killing me, man. Last night was my dad’s retirement party. My Dad’s Grandfather started a business in 1922. When he retired, my Dad’s Dad took over the business. When my Grandfath...


I get it. I’m an associate. You have to walk before you can run and all that. But sometimes this Low Man, Different Rules for Associate and Partners thing is a real big pain in my ass. So… My ...

Vids in Book Four: Ichi-no-Tani 2017

............... Last night, there was a Rehearsal and a Rehearsal Dinner for my wedding. Wife got absolutely shit faced because (according to her) she loves my family so much. SO… since she is n...

Brief in Book Four: Ichi-no-Tani 2017

I am currently in San Francisco. Yesterday was a flight day of 9 hours. I have been on “Vacation” for almost 2 days… and yet have done 2.4 hours of billable work. Which, on Vacation, means I’v...


Just so it is written down somewhere… I don’t know why I’m still having recurring dreams about Aoife. She’s always sexy… different versions of it, just as she was when we knew each other. Last ...


Just when you think it is safe to get back in the water.... After a fair amount of time… I had another dream about Aoife last night. A large group of people (several hundred) had been called in t...


2nd Jury Trial as defense. Same defendant and same county as first one. This time, like next time, his actions could have gotten him SHOT but for the fact that these officers don’t immediately fi...


Title has no deeper or significant meaning other than to discuss the humor of words and language. Wife was trying to spell something yesterday and was having a “that can’t be right” moment. We ...


More tales of drama and amazement from the Domestic Life of a Suburban Nightmare. Came home from a long day of work. It was fun, though, because in the middle of the day I got to have lunch with...

Solution in Book Four: Ichi-no-Tani 2017

Well… I rebuilt as much as I could. The To-Do List was fairly easy. The hours? PAIN FULL. Full of pain. But… I sat down and I used my e-mail cache, my filing history and my cell phone histor...


It is kind of hard not to have a persecution complex when the world fucks you rriiiiiight in the asshole. Monday, I received my marching orders and wrote my weekly to-do list to make sure I would...


I just went through all of my missed e-mail. It wasn’t even that bad but one e-mail was (again, another) E-Mail about typos in my work. I put a client’s birthday as 7/27/17 instead of 7/27/67. ...


I am kind of dreading today. I called in sick to work yesterday and they sent a bunch of e-mails and texts and stuff. I was sleeping and did not respond. They will not be happy. Plus, I have ...

Respite in Book Four: Ichi-no-Tani 2017

I haven’t been sleeping well. I haven’t exactly been in a healthy place. And all of that on top of 10 to 15 hour days at work. So I called in sick today. Said I had a low-grade fever and woul...


So, I looking through BBC News stuff because… oddly I’d rather stay at work than go home… and I see “Survivors of Harvey” and “Destruction of Irma” and “Raging Fires of Montana”.... and then I se...


The world has… turned upside down? I feel bad about my argument with Wife last night. Even worse about how to deal with things now. Because one of two things will happen. (1) She’ll pretend ...


Sometimes… I think I should just.... fucking quit. At life. So… I woke up this morning at 6 am because Wife worked at 7 and I wanted to be awake to help with serving Breakfast and making sure sh...


I need to get laid. Or force alone time into my schedule in order to “take care” of the problem on my own. I get that people deal with depression and stress in their own way but… yeah. A great...


Television and Conversations before bed certainly affect dreams. And I know.... I know… to paraphrase one of my favorite Christmas movies: “Nobody cares about your fucking dreams.” But… it is m...
