    And he’s off… Jason is off to some sort of governmental party that’ll keep him away for a couple of days. I think it’s great that I know my tax dollars are being spent on shrimp cocktails and the Marriot. But, honestly, I’m glad we have a couple of days apart… sort of. Of course Read more

    I’m in flux right now. The popular belief is that the masks and lockdowns will come back sometime in September. But this is based on a lot of heresy. It will be until it’s not and I refuse to believe that American (and the world) would allow such restrictions again. But people will. I don’t Read more

    For 48 years, I never went to the ER. Not even once. I had no need to. I was in generally good health and stayed out of trouble. ER was a place for burn victims, car accidents, and heart attacks. It was a place for emergencies – which is why it is it the ER. Read more

    It’s been a while. Too long. I don’t have an excuse. Just life, I suppose, but life shouldn’t be an excuse. Life should be celebrated. But here I am. Maybe, I pray, I can get back on track or any type of track. I was doing so well there with writing – better than I Read more

    A concept Jason and I lightly talked about yesterday was how society is being isolated. Unless there’s a mob mentality, as shown in Chicago and California last weekend, people are becoming increasingly afraid of themselves, others, and of expressing opinions. There’s an all or nothing ideology. A person is anti-gun, pro-abortion, pro LGBTQUIA+, and believes Read more

    I was in therapy yesterday — Yes. Just yesterday discussing how important it is for me to feel financially secure.
