Another week gone, spent, primarily, pushing five requirements packages over the line to get briefed and funded at work, clearing the decks so I can maybe have some time to work on all the evil overlord/”remake the agency” projects the bosses and I are hatching to hopefully improve things around here. That’s where my head’s […]
Well, I didn’t quite finish off one hundred miles this weekend for the 2022 Cap2Cap. As I mentioned, I’ve been struggling with a respiratory thing with cruddy lungs, sore throat, and fatigue. It’s not COVID (I checked), but it, and the weather, had been keeping me down most of the week. I did, however, get […]
Hell of a week this was. Couple of twelve hour work days, sprained wrist, and cold-like symptoms the last several days, which have played hell with my anxiety, as I’ve been having dreams the early part of this week that I’d caught the ‘rona at RavenCon and that would sideline my plans to participate in […]
Been another week. Although I started strong with a fifty-miler on Sunday and a few smaller rides later on, I spent a lot of the week struggling through allergies and aches associated with some sort of bug the kid brought home from school. I’m largely past it, I think, but it wasn’t ideal; I was […]
It was a week. Not much more, not much less. I honestly don’t remember much of it…between work, exercise, eating something or other, getting this tune stuck in my head thanks to the ice skating class across the way, the entertainment highlight that was Moon Knight, struggling with the dense text of the novel I’m […]
The weekend, all told, wasn’t awesome. Saturday morning, I awoke to find our dear, elderly, crazy, mixed-up cat Charlotte had passed quietly in the early hours of the morning. She’d been slowing down for a while, having suffered a stroke a year or two back, and having a couple of episodes in the last couple […]
As per usual, these four day weeks are always busier than the usual five day package. Just seems like all the meetings and briefings and problems rear their heads at the office, along with more-intense-than-usual drama elsewhere. If the world cooperates, I’ll likely knock off a little early, though the world hasn’t cooperated so far, […]
As mentioned previously, this weekend is Marscon, and given that, I’m doing my usual Friday post on Thursday in order to get it out of the way, because I’ll have things to do tomorrow; even if I did take a long weekend, which I damned well deserved. Definitely deserved it because this has been one […]
Much has been made of the stories of the current conflict resulting from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine: Zelenskyy’s masterful social media management; the stories of bravery from Ukrainian citizens, Putin’s seemingly unhinged state of mind. Americans missing the effing point… It’s interesting, that for, perhaps the first time since WWII, certainly the first time in […]
