TWITTER: Women's March
For anyone who thinks The Women’s March isn’t necessary or important, spend an hour listening to the people criticizing the march. I have rarely seen such oafish, offensive, misogynistic vitriol ...
TWITTER: TMI Snob Confession
(You saw the title, so know this is a TMI) How much of a snob am I? Hearing Sarah Brightman’s solo version of “Con te partirò” gives me a semi. Gross? Probably. Snobby? Likely. Proof that I ...
292 (& Day 1)a
Wherein I may look like a pompous, arrogant, self-important ass while complaining about people that, through my poor use of words, may look like down-to-earth, homey, good folks with strong con...
291 (Why Not Bullets)
Today was Cecilia’s husband’s funeral. The woman looked fairly destroyed. After all, they had dated in High School and married almost immediately thereafter. They had been married over 40 ye...

1400 I’ve spent the last hour updating GOOGLE CALENDARS (which Ran wants to use… which is a damn sight better than the NOTHING Boss used); and now (upon Ran’s request) am creating a White Board c...

0730 So badly want to sleep more. A significant portion of me wants to call in sick to work just so I can get another 4 to 6 hours of sleep. :( Of course… that could be the Fibromyalgia… the lac...

So… yeah. The internet in my home is fucked. Like… we have the best we can get for our area… but it isn’t what I would call stupendous. More stupid. So… again… I am 3 full pages behind in boo...
Which book?
Not sure which book to put this in but.... “Huge” Ice Storm incoming… so we’ll see what happens. But I’ve been reading a lot today (not Prosebox and not Cases… sometimes I just need to… read. ...
185: Lets Do This
0932 I missed my alarm today… which is strange. I woke up at 8:30 a.m. Good to get the extra sleep but it looks bad when I live closest to the office and I’m the last person there. When I got ...

Well… a work day. A work day that… already feels a bit strange. 09:34 I forgot to call back Ranting&Sobbing yesterday. As little as I want to, I did say I’d call her back… so I should call ...
183 (bida)
I had a dream.... I was single and living in an apartment in Des Moines. Not a big one; but two bedrooms, a common area, and a kitchen. My room mate was Thompson (an ex gf) and she had taken th...
182
Written/Updated throughout the day. 10:00 a.m. I woke up this morning in excruciating pain. Simply moving my arms or my legs was more than I could coax out of myself. So, I hit the “fuck this” ...
181 P.M.
The rest of the morning went rather well. Tackled the morning work with my usual apathetic “do your duty” work feel that gets me through the day around here. Even got several cases finished! T...
Day 181
This weekend passed far too quickly and meant far too little. Friday night, around 10:00 p.m., Wife and I began the 3 hour drive to her parents. I was exhausted and in considerable pain by the e...
TWITTER: Compliment
I tend to be too negative… about a lot of things. But one thing that has been consistent is my memory for numbers and names in my job. I can remember a person’s full name (first, second, third)...
Friday (Gettin' Down on Friday)
Tonight we travel to Wife’s parents. It is good. We don’t see them often and it is important to make sure Wife reconnects with her parents every now and then. Certainly means I’ve driven a lot...
Cptn Crs
Before leaving work last night; Ran called me into his office. He was looking over some of Boss’ old files (old including things she’d filed December 2016) and wanted to let me know… we all had a...
Obaith (2017 Goals and Plans)
Resolutions are common at the end of one year and beginning of another. But the word resolution is an interesting one. Resolute: admirably purposeful, determined, and unwavering. Resolve: decide...
Rapido!
New boss and transitions take up a lot of time. There are still 5 pages of Unread Bookmarks, and I’m only 50% done with my actual “New Year” entry! Plus… since we are spending so much time simp...
Horace
“Begin, be bold, and endeavor to be wise!” - Horace First Prosebox of the New Year. And my bookmarks tab has 83 Unread Entries. Oh my. That should take… a considerable amount of time to catch ...
Book Description
The name references a Japanese Battle whose important actions have been portrayed in Kabuki and Noh. I hope… in several ways… my actions of 2017 can be a shadow of the importance of that event.
