Same verse, same as the last thousand…long days, long nights, etc… Specifically, though, I got home in the early hours of the morning after spending the evening in Norfolk watching some chosen family graduate in the ODU arena on Thursday. It was worth it for seeing and supporting friends, though, when a man’s gotta put […]

Most of my week’s been way too deeply invested in developing a couple of sales pitch decks for the C-suite pushing a new organizational scheme for requirements in the program management center…Well, I say “new”, when I really mean “a”, because currently, there really isn’t any rhyme or reason to things. My boss and our […]

If one were given to wallow in cliche, absence, they say, makes the heart grow fonder. Honestly, though, based on the stats, mostly don’t think anybody much cares. Apart from a couple of playlist posts the last couple of weeks, I’ve been largely absent from this space. And if I’m absent, pretty much everybody’s absent; […]

The excessive life has slowed down somewhat, but I’ve still got way too many balls in the air, so to speak, and seriously don’t have the energy or free brain cycles to go on about it here. Once things settle a bit more? We’ll likely be back to our regularly scheduled web-hosted bitching. Suffice it […]

Still too much life; memos, insurance, horrific news (and our unfortunate numbness to it as a nation), insomnia, graduations and transitions, bizarre requests, and a whole bunch of rain. I’m exhausted. I fell asleep before 7pm last night watching the new Chip n’ Dale’s Rescue Rangers movies on the couch. Yeah. Here’s a list of […]

Too much life this week, friends. I’ve got nothin’. Here’s some music: “Madonna of the Wasps” – Robyn Hitchcock & The Egyptians “Try Me On…I’m Very You” – Deee-Lite “Head Over Heels (Dave Bascombe 7″ N.Mix)” – Tears for Fears “The New World” – X “The Hook” – Stephen Malkmus “Turtles Have Short Legs” – […]

As I’m still fighting off this respiratory thing, I spent the weekend largely down, trying to rest and medicate this thing away. The weather cooperated with me by being largely garbage all weekend, so I wasn’t particularly tempted to push myself with outdoor exercise. I watched a couple of movies, played some Pokemon, read some […]

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 […]
