friday random elevenish: “playlist entry number five” edition

31 Jan

As I tap this out, I can say that it’s been a really uneventful week, following a pre-determined pattern. Wake. Paperwork. Scan Headlines. Reheat leftovers. Read. Pass out. Repeat. Part of this is because I’m still not feeling great; likely lingering con crud, but who knows, given what the kids bring home, and what I […]

friday random elevenish: “nothing to see here” edition

24 Jan

Con crud is kind of a thing. But I’ll persevere, thanks to rest, sinus meds, and Nyquil. As I said, Marscon was awesome, and the dissonance of coming back into the normal world after living in con world for a couple of days is always challenging, especially when you’re having trouble breathing through your nose. […]

stop thinking of everyone else

23 Jan

The following exerpt from this article at Poltico on Thursday once more describes a common theme I’ve seen pop up in primary coverage a lot, and in particular in the last week: …Stephens gushed about a different candidate: Elizabeth Warren. The Army veteran cited her health care plan and said he “like(s) a lot of […]

thank you, marscon

22 Jan

Marscon is, without question, always a great time for me. It’s a chance to see friends, make music, and try to shake off the stresses of mundane life for the weekend.

chuck’s marscon schedule

09 Jan

As you see above, I am all over the place at Marscon next weekend. It’s going to be fun, but it’s going to be tiring, being, as I am increasingly known, “The Guy In Every Band™”!

friday random elevenish: “i suck at social media” edition

09 Jan

Y’know, this week’s been primarily about figuring out how to be a productive member of society again after being off the grid in holiday limbo for two weeks. I’ve mostly fallen back into things, pushing documents around and being bureaucratic and stuff. I also spent a bit of time keeping my eye on the HR […]

meandering through atypical spiritual practices

06 Jan

My year-end (mostly) Staycation™ came to it’s inevitable end yesterday. The break was actually pretty relaxing, when I consider things. We all decided to make Christmas itself pretty low-key; the end of the year was way to hectic and crazy, with sewing projects and obligations and not as much money as we’d like and such, […]
