It always happens the same way. I have an idea for a post, something that I want to share and that actually might be interesting to someone else, and by the time I get to a device, fire it up, log in to wordpress and get to recording, the idea is gone. This is the…

That didn’t work at all. What was it? Did you see it? Hopefully not. A weekly digest of all my tweets as a blog post, automagically generated and posted with no effort from me at all (except to turn it on). Interesting idea, but only if you are saying anything interesting at either location. Otherwise,…

We all knew what we were getting into when we signed up. We all knew the risks, the dangers, and the odds. But that doesn’t make it any easier when the people you have lived, laughed, and cried with are suddenly gone. One minute there, planning the day’s travels, and the next minute emptiness. Swallowed…

Early morning. Lots of tweets and posts and things to catch up on after a busy Halloween weekend. But today I sat, drank my coffee, and watched the overcast sky brighten. Not a beautiful storybook sunrise. Not an overpowering awareness of the grandeur of the planet. Just the steady glow of the morning opening it’s…

Dear Cosmetics Industry, I have no idea how you do it, but you do. You take a little seed, a fluttering, fledgling of nothing and nurture it into an amazing flower with nothing more than a bit of colored dust, water, and maybe a little whale bile. Whatever it takes. You make us look on…

Actually, you just got hit with the lamest. Sorry. I’ve been busy. Happy April Fools Day! And if you see any good ones, let me know.

Life is better with sugar. This was our dinner conversation. Him (out of nowhere with a giant hamburger on a Kaiser roll in his hand): Know what Julius Ceasar’s daughter’s name was? Me: Classic? H: No! Julia. Long line of em. Lots of Julias. Ask me anything about Julius Ceasar. Or much ado about nothing.…

Here we go again. Here’s the thing, when I learn stuff, I want other people to know. I can’t help it. Knowledge should be for everyone. I share with you, and can learn from you. It’s important to me. My dad was a teacher, so I guess it’s part of me, too. In my latest…

Lately, Dex has been drawing pictures for me of our old dog Rio. He has been missing her. Not sure if it’s because Poe has been crapping in the kitchen too much. I miss Rio too. Poe is great, but the crapping is wearing on me. Poe is needier that Rio for sure, but Rio…

I turned on the default theme so that I could post from the iPhone app. Hope you all like it. The plan when I got the app was that I would be able to be more flexible and post more often. That hasn’t happened yet, really. Especially with an app that wouldn’t connect to the…
