thursday random elevenish: “my own worst critic” edition

25 Feb

I was hoping this was going to be a better week than the last, really I was. It rather wasn’t, especially Wednesday. A couple of weeks back, I misread a couple of cells on a spreadsheet cost estimate, leading to me entering the wrong number in another cell of another spreadsheet for a data call. […]

something something multipass

22 Feb

It was, as they say, a weekend. I accomplished some things that needed accomplished and got a little much-needed rest. Otherwise, highlights include filing the taxes and “winning” February Album Writing Month by posting my fourteenth song Sunday afternoon. That said, I was hardly the weekend focus, and that’s okay. The real focus around these […]

friday thursday random elevenish: “anticipatory power outage” edition

18 Feb

Another weekend, another ice storm in the forecast. Joy. Looking at the most recent maps, I’m hopeful that it won’t be terrible in this corner of the world, I’m also kind of bracing for the worst…again. Sure, we were only out 36 hours last weekend, though when reviewing history, two weeks out is not an […]

♫ batten down the hatches, boys ♫

16 Feb

Well, this weekend was fun. The big 2021 ice storm started doing it’s thing around here on Friday morning, icing up the roads, the trees, the cars, the everything. None of us left the house Friday or Saturday, because the driveway was an ice rink, and we’re still on ‘Rona time anyway. We watched movies, […]

friday random elevenish: “tolerating the white stuff” edition

12 Feb

It’s Friday. About damned time. I’ll be honest, it’s been a heavy week. Accomplished quite a bit, and maybe drank a little too much, but all with an unmistakable air of frustration and bleh. Finally got the lawn guys mostly sorted, and my property is mostly clear of crap before the snowstorm. That effort was […]

climate change is real

08 Feb

H/T to friend Amber for this one Apart from the schizophrenic southern weather, this weekend wasn’t bad. Not saying it was particularly atypical; after all, our world is one where there isn’t a hell of a lot of novelty right now. I watched a couple of movies, finished a book and started another, made a […]

friday random elevenish: “music everywhere” edition

05 Feb

This week’s been a strange one. The weather’s been bizarre; swinging from three inches of snow to start the week to hitting damned near 70° yesterday afternoon (and making for a wonderful day to *finally* get out for a brisk three mile hike). It’s raining this morning, which I should have expected, since after some […]

first day of FAWM, 2021

01 Feb

As mentioned last week, I’m participating in my fourth year of February Album Writing Month, a challenge to oneself to write 14 songs in 28 days. I find I really enjoy it; it forces me to be creative on a schedule, and the community of songwriters involved are wonderful, supportive, and amazing. It feels like […]
