Doing this today, as I’m making a long weekend of it and heading down to Winston-Salem NC this weekend for Con-Gregate to see some friends and play some music, as one is wont to do at these sorts of things. As for where one can catch me doing those things, here’s my tentative schedule: Friday, […]

Been another week. Work. Bike. Play a little guitar. Standard in this time when half the world has decided that the pandemic’s over, and the other half is focusing on rising infections of the Delta Variant, especially because a good third of this country (and a much larger percentage of the localities surrounding mine, even […]

This week’s been, shall we say…slow. As I indicated earlier this week, I’ve been feeling a little off-kilter, in large part, I think, due to how slow things have been. Things got a little better as the week went on, I suppose, as the weather the last couple of days has been gorgeous, and I’ve […]

It’s been a relatively quiet week (at work, anyway), capped off by a welcome surprise day off thanks to the Federal Government (including unanimous consent in this Senate!) making tomorrow, Juneteenth, a national federal holiday, which, frankly, is long overdue (now, let’s just pass *any* of the election reform laws floating around DC right now, […]

Little to report that I haven’t already mentioned; work has been, apart from the rise of a potential Reply-All-Pocalypse™ on Thursday afternoon, relatively quiet and somewhat productive. Got some riding in, including a wet 20 miles on Wednesday as I tried to stay ahead of a storm, and unlike all my peers on social media, […]

Going to do this today, because when I’d normally be prepping this post, I’ll be packing and heading south for my first live gigs in over a year. It’s still a little intimidating, even if after rehearsals that showed me that I haven’t forgotten nearly as much as I thought I had, to be getting […]

Didn’t love this week. Got the stuff done, but I never felt particularly accomplished about anything. I just spent too much time on a conference call, behind the wheel of a car, or hunched over a keyboard. Such things are exhausting, and I really didn’t want to do them, but because I am a grown-ass […]

I honestly don’t know what to make of this week. Not surprisingly, given last weekend, I kind of started behind, and honestly never quite caught up. So much of it has to do with trying to keep up with everyone else’s needs, tracking the requirements of two completely unrelated job descriptions, attempting to snag a […]

Bills. Bike. Bureaucratic Bullshit. Not much else to say, really… Anyway, here’s some music: “PDA” – Interpol “Search and Destroy – Iggy Pop Mix” – The Stooges “Trash Generator” – Tera Melos “Mantra” – Dave Grohl, Josh Homme, Trent Reznor “Rapid Fire Tollbooth” – Omar Rodriguez-Lopez “The Other Shoe” – Fucked Up “Hey You” – […]

Apart from my spending the whole week thinking it was a day later than it was, I got a heck of a lot done, at least up until Thursday. Never got the hang, etc. Earlier in the week, they started migrating the email system at work to a different platform (the whats and whos aren’t […]
