It's morning.
On my way back to the office this morning, I decided to stop and take a picture of the sunrise over the lake. I missed catching the morning mist due to having to make a U turn and find a place to park first. Oh well. I also managed to shoot this at 1600 instead [...]
It's cold.
As we went to bed yesterday, $wife was rubbing her arms and legs all over me trying to warm up. I said, “Just call me Jungle Jim.”. She stopped, sat up and said “What?”. “It felt like you were climbing all over me.”, I said. She told me to post this.

I got scammed.
I normally think of myself as pretty savvy and able to spot a scam from a long way off. Yesterday, I let my guard down. A kid showed up at the door, typical just out of high school type, drinking a NoS energy drink and talking at 100 miles per hour. He was going door [...]
argh! not getting things done.
I’m lazy. I don’t want to do the things on my todo list. I find myself thinking “if I could just get things into $gtd_software everything would be better”. Down this road lies madness! But there is a part of me that keeps asking, “But would it be less crazy than my current, obviously not [...]
Wish I could sleep.
I wish I could sleep when I really wanted to. Instead, my brain decides to take a tour of any random event or past thought. And I do mean any. Some of the things my brain has decided to rehash today (yes, instead of sleeping)…. * The Acting Company of Hibriten High School 1994 performance [...]
Online friends.
This past Friday, I went to a going away gathering for a friend that is moving to upstate New York. A few years ago this would have been a much bigger deal to me than it is now. Even though we both lived in Southern Wisconsin it seems that for the past year or two [...]
