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

Rambling

  • I’m being full-on lazy today. It’s just after 12:30 and I’ve napped most of the morning away… which is very much unlike me but it feels pretty good, actually.  I’ve been aching for the past week or so, weather-related I’m guessing, and I’ve been really bad about taking my meds. Yeah, I’ll get a move Read more

  • 1/28 — Thinking/ramble

    Okay. I’m thinking of an idea and I don’t know if it’ll come out right.    This is definitely rambling while I freewrite and try piece this together. Politics have been huge.   Like huge huge, but it wasn’t always this way.  We have the left and the right. At one point… like back in the Read more

    At home today… which isn’t that bad. I’m pretty sure I walked over ten miles yesterday between St. John’s Pass and Seminole.    Towards the end of my sojourn, my legs were going nope, nope, nope, nope.   They were mostly numb for the rest of the night… which is good.  My back was doing enough Read more

  • 1/17 – part two

    I don’t like these uneasy hours.     They’re wasted. I can’t really start on a major cleaning project because I know I won’t be finished by the time Jason comes home.    I ran out of supplies to work outside. It’s too early to begin cooking dinner and right now there’s nothing to do in Read more

    Today… today I devote myself to classwork, straightening the yard, and continuing to clean the house. My original thought today was to go to the gym for a while but wanted to wait for the bug guy.   Because Florida has some huge bugs and I don’t like bugs, Mr. Bug Guy comes out once every Read more

    Jason isn’t back from his Tampa class yet, so I thought I’d give this another go before I fall asleep. I’m listening to: While it says super intelligence and memory, I’m about ready to just pass out.  It’s gently sapping my energy. Recent impressions of the new year – Retail.    Since I’m in a Read more

  • I am fresh off watching an hour of ten-year-old Zero Punctuation and realized that I haven’t played any of those games.   None.  And that’s okay.    In a way, it’s kind of disappointing and weird since I’ve never played Half-Life or even Peggle, but still… okay.  Maybe I’m a gamer like a writer – in Read more

  • 1/8

    In my classes, I stress the importance of source verification. This goes way beyond “Did it come from Ebscohost?” Please.   After the vaccination scandal, who can believe what comes from ‘academic’ sources? … although I have to force myself to be a cheerleader for them. Even those who peer-review the peer review sources admit the Read more

  • 12/27

    To be honest, I haven’t felt like writing over the past couple of weeks. That’s not true.    I’ve felt like writing, but haven’t had the willpower or motivation to do anything. I think the reason is because of how I’m reacting to the situations and surroundings presented to me. Just to be clear, I Read more

  • Shhhh…

    I am being a very good girlfriend right now. Jason is taking his last test this semester so I’ve sequestered myself in the bedroom, door closed, and I’m going to be really quiet while he takes his test.  It’s a proctored exam which apparently means he has to allow Microsoft, Russia, and the government to Read more
