Yeah, no random ten on Friday; I was busy doing Friday things…things I couldn’t necessarily do before I was doing an alternate work schedule (4 x 10 hrs, Fridays off). This works for me. Anyway, for now I’m sitting here on the front porch waiting for some trick or treaters to arrive…so far, it seems […]
Sort of settling into a routine now; hope it’ll get a little more regular next week. No big plans for the weekend; probably just going to continue cleaning and take a couple of bike rides (did fifteen miles this morning; felt very good after spotty gym access this week). And now for the pre-school’s favorite […]
Those paying attention have probably noticed that for the last month and change, I haven’t been posting much, and when I have posted, I’ve dropped little hints about things happening that I didn’t necessarily want to talk about it. At this point, I feel it’s safe to talk about those things, at least in general […]
…but I have to admit that today, I’m having a good hair day, a good clothes day, a decent body day…I actually kind of look good.* All that biking might actually be working for me a little bit. _______________ * – for certain values of “good” which allow for thirtysomething nerdy balding guys built on […]

To celebrate, please have Zooey bathed and brought to my tent. <smirk> Really, though, to celebrate, I’m going […]
Okay, now officially more than half-way through my thirties, such as it is. As usual, I don’t feel particularly different. Sure, from a purely physical standpoint, there are a few pounds less of me than there were last year (and that’s generally a good thing), but otherwise, nothing significant. Thirty-six, besides being a prime number*, […]
I’ve been doing a lot of heavy writing about VERY IMPORTANT THINGS™ in the social and political arenas lately, so today I’m simply going to make mention of a few of the little things that don’t necessarily have earth-shattering importance. This weekend, for example, I finally stumbled upon the missing element to cooking so-called “authentic” […]
Earlier this week, through the magic of fark, my attention was drawn to an article in the Harrisburg Patriot-News (which, at one point in my life, might have been considered my “hometown” paper) about protests at a Potter County PA library over the screening of a documentary dealing with the gay experience in rural America […]
