Don't live the American dream. Live your dream.

    Life continues to twist. I’m still uncomfortable with the whole stay-at-home thing, but I know it’s going to get better.    Tomorrow, we’ll probably get the car back.    That means I can go to the park and move about a bit.   In a way, it’s not a lot, but it’s something. The best part… Read more

    I’m trying to become more accepting of the entire virus situation. I have to keep reminding myself that it’s not forever. The world is just a little crazy right now, but things will even out soon. Exactly when soon (TM) is, no one knows.   A week?  A month?  Next year? But, life moves on.… Read more

    “The privilege of the writ of habeas corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in cases of rebellion or invasion the public safety may require it. Article One, Section 9, Clause 2. –  U.S. Constitution. As far as I know, this has never ever been invoked.  Well, invoked in the continental 48. I think that says a lot.… Read more

    Well, this sucks. It’s in the mid-80s and the gym is closed.   The maul is closed.  The beaches close tomorrow.  The parks are probably going to close soon. It’s beautiful weather.   Not muggy.  Not rainy.   Just pretty. … and there’s nowhere for me to realistically go. This sucks – hardcore. I went walking for a… Read more

  • Coronavirus

    I’m calling bull. Yes, it’s a new virus. Yes, it kills people, but so does the common flu if you’re old or don’t take care of yourself.  Getting up out of bed in the morning can kill you.  Staying in bed can kill you.  Driving in cars can kill you.   A chicken bone can kill… Read more

    Today didn’t go as I had planned, but it was a good thing this time. The original plan was to see The Invisible Man at an 11 or noon showing. I was going to treat myself to Polo Tropical.     I’ve been wanting to try that for a while and I was going to work… Read more

    How often do I get to post on a leap day – Once every four years. How often do I remember to post on a leap day – Practically never. So, here’s my post.  =) I guess this is more like a bonus Florida day. I can’t help thinking about how Indiana is inching closer… Read more

    Lazy day. I’ve sequestered myself in the house today as the rain chances are increasing each hour until around 1am.    Right now, it’s at 60% chance.  It hasn’t rained – yet – but I’ve been feeling it in my bones. Not venturing out, but that’s okay. I don’t have to be constantly on the… Read more

  • A Review: Sonic (2020)

    Yesterday, I continued my one-week tradition of enjoying a $5 movie. Again, thought about seeing The Photograph and again went naahhhh.. I’d rather watch a CG animated hedgehog from a game that was never really good at. If 1917 was available, I think I would watch that but it’s long blown by.   Oh, wells. What… Read more

  • Freewriting – 2/22

    She checked her watch. It was an older piece, something not made anymore, but still functional. It remained correct twice a day. The streets were empty.   The air was bare. She felt slightly disrespectful by moving as it caused little unseen winds around her. She had caused an expenditure of energy that was not needed. … Read more
