Yesterday was a bumpy day, but I got through it. I suppose I am glad I rented a vehicle, as it was raining pretty hard all day. Also, my car’s problem was minor and easily fixed, so I have it back now. Got a hundred things to do at work, but it’s better than a… Continue reading October 25, 2022

I scheduled a tow for my car for between 6 and 6:30 this morning. The tow truck driver showed up at 4 a.m. Sheesh. I was so out of it, but I’m glad that I had rented a vehicle, and, also, it was 70 degrees and clear, which was nice. And, at least, I got… Continue reading October 24, 2022

Continuity, that is. If people would listen to me and others, I would encourage them to vote, and I still believe that’s the right… Continue reading October 18, 2022

I realized yesterday that I’m more into boring books for 40-somethings at the moment than any of the more fantastical fare I’m used to. Buying a house. Retirement planning. At least until I get to page 170 and realize I’ve got to actually understand what I’m reading in great clarity. Then I panic.

I’m married now. I’m married! Some people are very surprised, but I’m pleased. I’m sorry I didn’t mention it until now, but nobody’s reading this anyway. 🙂
Test, just a test
No, don’t read this, please. I mean it. Stop. You’re not doing yourself any favors.
