Another week in the can, so to speak. It’s been busy, with lots of stuff going on at work, and getting school started with the youngest child, all a challenge since current conditions have us all doing our thing from the house. But, we’re managing, in particular, me, through tons of sinus issues in the […]

So, in most normal years, right about now I’d likely be wrapping up work things to take a couple of days off to head down to Atlanta with almost 100,000 of my closest friends for Dragoncon where I’d get to play rock star with my buddies the Blibbering Humdingers, though given the realities of the […]

SBCL (Separated by a Common Language, or any of these things). I work in public sector information technology, which means that TLAs (Three Letter Acronyms) run rampant; it’s one of this career path’s joys. I’m pretty sure if I felt like putting in the effort, I could probably knock out a paragraph or three in […]

It’s been a week; certainly. Glad to see it mostly behind me. There actually hasn’t been all that much to report since the storm kinda fizzled earlier this week. Been just rainy and humid enough to scuttle most of the bike riding, but I spent a couple of nice enough afternoons hiking a local park, […]

Can’t really put it any other way. Not that there wasn’t some good (my tunes hit spotify, got some good biking done, etc), but largely, it was a hot, stressful slog that I struggled to push myself through. It is, however, Friday, and I’m going to keep plugging on the best I can, hoping that […]

So, folks, as of checking in this morning, my record, World’s Okayest… is now streaming on Spotify! I’d still love if you bought the thing, of course, but I’m happy for folks to just hear the stuff, to be honest (plus, I get like a fraction of a cent if you play one of my […]

If you’ve been paying attention to my posts the last couple of weeks (especially this week), you’ve probably gotten the impression that things are decidedly not good. That perception’s not entirely wrong, of course – one merely needs to look out the window or to the television to see that: the White House is is […]

This week, as weeks go, at least personally, in this age of pandemic, protest, fascist photo ops heat wave, and bears, hasn’t been the worst of the lot. I’ve gotten some actual work done (without working too hard about it), read some books (including the wonderful The Last Emperox by John Scalzi, in the welcome […]

Quarantine, day…um, I don’t remember: I commented briefly over the weekend, mostly to vent, with polite sorrow, regarding my gigs getting canceled for May. Things will come back around, later rather than sooner, and I, and my many, many musical friends (why not check out some of my many talented friends in the “play list” […]

Well, in the last hour or two we just got word that ConCarolinas is canceled for the year. There will be some online content, of course, but I won’t be in Charlotte rocking the place with my friends at the end of May. Also, as I suspected, but confirmed today, my May 9 show at […]
