I’ll be back soon. In Laws in town yesterday and today, and my wife wants to “do as much Holiday shopping as possible” like… right now. Plus- twelve hour work day tomorrow. BUT since Thanksgiv...


This is getting out of hand! I’ve been awake for over 17 hours; I have a big day tomorrow… WHY can’t I sleep? This is irritating. And of course, my irritation (and the pain in my left leg, ent...


So… I’ve been haunted by a thought today. There’s a story forming in my head. The outline of it has already written itself, the characters are established, their personalities are unique and ind...


Surveys! Seen several today so… I’ve stolen a few :) Are you wearing a hat? No. I’ve grown to wear more hats these days than I did when I was a kid but… still don’t wear hats often Bottled wat...


Ergh, gragh, hrmph, yeah. So, uhm… my leg pain has been kicking my butt recently and sleep has been far from me. As I just received my giant stack of Bar Exam Prep books and will have to begin ...


Some of the Prosebox editing stuff has clearly gone way over my head because… I had an entry, saved it, published it, put it up on the web… then… poof. Gone. No idea how or why. Let’s try this ...


When I was growing up, I spent a large amount of my time with female friends. There are any number of reasons why most of my friends were female; but I swore I would listen to all of them to lea...


No idea where to put this- daily or political… because today has been a very politically charged day. I’ll start at the end and move backwards. The wife and I watched a wonderful movie tonight c...


Wanted to get something up here before the day is over. The day was mostly okay. Work… work… some more work… then home to do dishes, cook some fish, and play Destiny. GOD I wish I had more fr...


With my insomnia this week, and my wife’s pension for leaving the television on as she goes to sleep… I’ve caught quite a few early morning Pokémon episodes this week. Never before had I watched...


Oh I am glad that work week is finished! We’ll see how bad the rest of the month is but… glad to be done! I only had court 3 days this week due to Veteran’s Day… but not only does the holiday s...


I have always been against Black Friday shopping. Too many people behaving like absolute assholes in the name of saving some dollars… usually not even shopping for presents anymore; people are s...


Excerpt from an article found: http://themighty.com/2014/11/when-a-cashier-reminded-me-my-son-has-down-syndrome/ Sometimes I forget that our son has Down syndrome. It’s easy to be distracted by h...


1) I am itchy all over… my calves, my thighs, my back, my arms, my neck… this typically means another weather shift is in store but… good golly, it is driving me crazy trying not to itch! 2) This...


It feels like one of those days where my brain wants to communicate four or five different things; but I’ve done nothing all day so I feel like it would be silly to spend time writing… is that bi...


Sometimes I wonder if the great philosophical question of my life will be “How does one cope with a lifetime of missed opportunities?”


Yesterday was… an okay day. It would be vastly foolish to suggest it was wonderful; but it was a touch more than neutral so that makes it a good day. I had yet another dream that took place in m...


Time: 1620 Bah… my brain is going in several different directions right now. This is definitely one of my more Harvey Dent days. Where… I do have several thoughts at once, many of which conflic...


So… the following has to be typed at light speed due to previous obligations pestering me at the moment but… uh… yeah… suck. So, as some know, my wife and I have a very strained sex life. Der....


Today’s NoJoMo sounds like a trap. Like… “If I were a fresh intern at the NSA, and really wanted to impress my bosses; here’s what I’d do” kind of trap. “What is the biggest lie you’ve ever tol...


Yesterday was… good-ish. It is funny. I really don’t have awesome/awful days anymore… I have “this day was easy” or “this day was less easy” days. Like- yesterday… not much happened. Period. ...


This is strictly going to be THE PROMPT because…yeah… not much to write today. Day off. Day off where Wife has day off. Day off where I’ve voted (hooray) and that will likely be the highlight ...


I’ve been thinking about it a lot today. Too much maybe. But some “obvious truths” have come to light. I may have mentioned them before; I may have had these revelations a number of times in t...


Waked up today just… feeling blah-ish. The wife and I both have the day off, so I took her on a date last night. Happy that she waited until the meal was mostly over before going back to her Sm...


When I was a young child, hell - to this day- I am constantly playing with words. In a world that no longer has any magic, playing with words is sometimes the closest we can get to a feeling of ...
