  • One of “those” days

    Do you ever have one of “those” days? I mean, the once in a year or so day where you’re ready to get the fuck out of bed because of that three hour long nightmare you’ve been having but you want to crawl right back in because you have this overwhelming sense of foreboding, like…

  • A day at the beach

  • One of Five

    Decided to get out today. First day of a five day weekend. Nothing really planned per say, but I’ve needed some time off and I wanted to do it while the weather was in the “perfect” (for me) temperature range (i.e. 70 – 85). And I’m sleepy now so this probably won’t be the most…

  • Yelping!

    Yelp! Back when I was blogging regularly I frequently wrote reviews. Well, not “frequently” in the “frequently” sense, but every now and then. I did it in part to provide feedback others out there might find useful. Mostly, I wrote reviews to improve my ability to articulate critical observational skills. So I’ve been thinking, why…

  • Pet Peeves: Stupid vs. Relevant

    Whoever is pet peeve free shall cast the first stone. But who among us is pet peeve free? Indeed, what the hell is a peeve? Apparently it is, “a source of annoyance or irritation.” It’s no wonder we make them pets. I believe there are two types of pet peeves. Type I: Stoopid Pet Peeves…

  • Snowflakepocalypse

    I heard the slur “snowflake” about twenty years or so, during the Bush junior administration when it became popular to insult non-Republicans with verbiage that has no meaning. That said, I’d like to talk to you about the Snowflakepocalypse. To quote a famous classic film, “I don’t think that word means what you think it…

  • Organizational Ping Pong

    That was a drama. Version x of my blogging app has problems a and b, version y has problem c and d, and after I spent an hour reorganizing all of my entries Version y wouldn’t open (fortunately, a reboot solved that issue). Okay, I know, boring, but it’s important to get things in order.…

  • Doh

    Speaking of ADH, yes, I totally forgot to write what I was going to write for my melancholia titled post–but on the plus side it does mean I’m giving myself the freedom to free write–so here we go. Melancholy is an easy emotion for me. I thought maybe because I’d battled a severe depression in…

  • Melancholia

    It’s no use setting my weekend alarm for 11am: I won’t get up. Or at the very least, I’ll wake up briefly with a strong desire to throw the phone across the room and hide under the covers like some kinda night creature. So I don’t set it and inevitably I sleep in until a…
