I could say that I wish the last week was more exciting and eventful, but I really don’t want to . I’ve made steady progress in some important areas, didn’t encounter any serious problems, had a bill or two come in a bit lower than expected, had my bar tab covered the other night by […]

It’s Friday…now; I spent a good bit of Thursday unable to shake the impression that it was, in fact, Friday then. It was not the best feeling. It’s been another week of a lot of the same sort of OG Herbert Kornfeld life; writing thousands of words few if anyone will read in the service […]

Apart from some health maintenance events, it’s been a remarkably dull and humdrum week. And those events? They mostly brought with them some dull and inconvenient but largely unremarkable aches. The dentist noticed some gum issues a few months back, so I got those evaluated, with all the resultant poking and prodding and x-rays and […]

This is hardly the first time I’m saying it, but it’s honestly been too much week, professionally, personally, mentally, and emotionally. I sit here on a Friday morning at 7am after clearing the inbox of overnight crises, with slightly over my official forty on the books. I do plan on knocking off a bit early […]

One could say it’s been an eventful week and change. Apart from the return of she who was long missing, I spent last weekend rocking DragonCon, where we played some pretty good shows, including Saturday’s, which I’d rank amongst the best we’ve played in years. If you were there, I hope you enjoyed it too. […]

So, on Tuesday, I turned 48 years old. As I spend most of my time in this space lately (and in conversation with others, and in songwriting, etc…) ruminating about what middle-age feels like, I’ll leave it for now, and focus on the “gift” I received this year. A positive COVID-19 test result. I dodged […]

First off, it didn’t suck. It was, honestly, pretty much everything I was looking for. Waiting impatiently for next week. Otherwise, not much to report for the week. Work, bike, read. Looking forward to getting together with some friends downtown on Saturday, checking out a band at the local historic theater this evening. Tunes this […]

So, returning to the indifferent embrace of the bureaucracy this week eventually sorted itself out, after a rough day or two to start. By the time you’re reading this, my inbox is completely tended, the groove is starting to get re-established, and I’ve already put a few presumptive public employees in their place for not […]

It’s Friday, but you’re not getting a playlist today. I took a couple of days off, just for me, to deal with some medical appointments, and because the “vacation” I have lined up for later this month is definitely of the working variety. Go listen to your own music; I’m busy spending a good bit […]

Another week mostly in the books. Apart from recording my virtual Dragoncon set (and catching up with my friend running things) on Wednesday night, it was mostly just work, sinus drainage, bills, and exercise. The lovely spouse and I did make a late night of it on Thursday heading out to the Drive-In to catch […]
