Regardless of when and where, society divides itself into three categories. It tends to take the shape of a pyramid. At the bottom is the rabble. These are the generally unskilled laborers. They are the plebeians. They are the unwashed masses. Often underestimated and always dominated by the other two levels, these people perform repetitive… Read more

It’s raining really hard. Like, Noah’s Ark type of downpour. There’s thunder and lightning. I’m hearing those really relaxing rumble sounds. It won’t last long, of course. I think it’s already slowing and soon, it will be gone. But I was here, enjoyed it, and appreciated it while it lasted. I am fortunate for that.… Read more

I had to correct mom. She was talking to Bill about Jason’s upcoming move over coffee. She was outlining what we are (might? I still can’t fully believe) going to do. Mom was making it sound like it would be a short honeymoon. Part of which was that Jason and I would be in the… Read more

This is getting to be a little scary. For a while now… well, for over ten years, actually… Jason has had a standing invite to join my tribe in Indiana. This would mean that he would have to leave Florida and abandon a house. This house is one that we bought and are currently have… Read more

I’m still struggling to get back into my routine of writing and reading. I can’t blame it on poison ivy. It isn’t completely gone but enough not to be so much of a bother. Just a little anti-itch spray can last most of the day. The little sister has returned to Indy and the potential… Read more

I went to the gym for the past three days and worked out hard. So, today, I didn’t. Got to rest. I’ll go out for a walk or something a little later. But, I’m taking it a little easy today and will return to the gym tomorrow. It’s a bit too hot to bike ride… Read more

I have been completely derailed over the past couple of weeks. I blame June. June is hard. First, it comes after May. Although I adore the month of May, it’s not exactly an easy month. September and October are far more fluid and easier going. June presents its own problems. Father’s Day isn’t exactly a… Read more

Something happened yesterday that no one ever thought would – Roe V. Wade was overturned. And, apparently, a lot of people lost their minds over this. It’s amazing, really, the drama and reaction over this. There are what people * thinks* it means and what it * actually * means. People * think * it… Read more

I guess I’m kind of taking it easy today. No gym. It’s 9:30 a.m. and I haven’t done anything productive. Not really. It’s supposed to be a fairly hot day but, right now according to the temperature, it’s warm. Not hot. Hot comes later. I should do something. It’s just a bit difficult because the… Read more

When it gets to be this hot, there really isn’t much to do save take little naps while the computer plays random crime documentaries from YouTube. That’s not right. There’s always something to do. But, it may not always be appropriate. For example, Bill is currently on the phone talking to someone… another old man…… Read more
