Still Here… mostly.

Yeah, I’m still around. It’s been over a month since my last post. I have allowed time to pass along side of letting my mind be elsewhere over, among other things, putting words on digital “paper”. Tonight, I’m choosing to do this over other things. I just think it’s necessary. For the past month, I …

Trying to Brain When I Has the Dumb

This is going to ramble… you’ve been warned. My lack of posting is directly related to my lack of writing in general. My lack of writing is directly related to a lack of drive to write – to be creative with the written word. I don’t know if I can explain why I have lost …

Noodling About Jawing 😉

Hi, y’all. It’s been a bit since my last post… sorry about that. Life’s been okay. I guess I’ve been on kind of a “cruise control”. It’s the “dog days of summer” here in North Texas. We’ve had temperatures over 100°F (37.8°C) most every day since June with no rain to speak of. All I …

Game Night: Kickin’ It Old School 😉

I haven’t written a Game Night post in a while, have I? That’s part of that muse thing, I guess. The fickle bitch has been leaving me hanging for all things involving the creatively written word, and that includes Game Night. My desire to play a tabletop roleplaying game (TTRPG) is still at a good …

Has the “Sleeper” Awakened?

Do y’all get that reference in the title? 😉 Last night, I noticed that my muse was a little less unconscious. I actually pushed buttons on the keyboard to make words on electronic paper. Some of those words became chains in the form of sentences. Some of those sentences were almost… coherent? Yeah, last night, …

Spring is Springing 😮

The ravages of winter weather to the backyard (even here in Texas) can be a rough place to start Spring. As you can see in this “post-apocalyptic” scenery, Winter and Spring are starting to do battle. The grass is getting tall… in spots. The horrendous amount of leaves from the cottonwood tree is well… horrendous. …

Being Good at Mediocrity is Okay

I apologize in advance for the rambling that might take place in the keyboard bashing that is about to take place. But hey… I’m mediocre as a wordsmith… In my life on this ball of mud and rock, I have come to the realization that being mediocre is NOT a bad thing. While I don’t …

Just on Cruise Control…

Since my last post, I guess there has not been a ton of things happening… I have been busy at work. It’s hard to believe I have been with TI for a little over 6 months now. I am finally getting a bit more settled in. Finding my way in this position has been a …

Updates and Such

Whew, It’s Done! After 10 days of limping along on a couple of very noisy window air conditioning units that were barely keeping the house from being completely miserable, my main system is finally fixed. It took way too long to get it fixed, too. The company that I bought this from is the same …

Enjoying the Moment… Something to be Learned

I won’t pretend that I have been too busy to make a blog post. I have been busy, but not so much that I have had no time to write. I will also not try to give excuses. I will just offer reasons for my lack of attention to this blog and other writing endeavors. …
