Define love.

Here is the end of the last entry. Prosebox saved it for me. Good old Prosebox. Actually Prosebox is not old. It’s pretty new. I am grateful to it for being here. For giving me a place to write...


I realize the title has a couple typos and a secret code in it - but what the heck - nobody’s perfect. It’s Saturday morning. I’ve been awake for a while. I’m in a slightly unsettled mood. I’m...


Guess I’ll see what I can say in an hour. That’s a long time. Time enough to write much more than anyone wants to read for sure. ** In a few weeks it will be my 50th wedding anniversary. I rem...


There are probably a whole bunch of reasons why it would not be a good idea though.

Mary Oliver this time

from her book of poems called A Thousand Mornings Don’t you dare climb that tree or even try, they said, or you will be sent away to the hospital of the very foolish, if not the other one. And I ...

750 words two years ago

was pretty miserable. It was too private and too self-pitying to put here. So I guess I should try to write an entry. Or not. It’s a minute before 7 am and I’m still in bed. It’s the last Su...

750 words a year ago

Well. It’s getting to be the end of the day. In fact it’s almost 9:30 pm and I’m just getting here. It’s been a funny day - not bad, maybe even on the edge of good. I woke up in the middle of the...

I liked this...

poem by W.G. Sebald (1944-2001) in the October 10, 2011 issue of the New Yorker October Heat Wave From the flyover the leads down to the Holland Tunnel I saw the red disc of the sun rising over ...


I only have a few minutes. I had more time but the internet did not come up. So I went back to bed with a very dense Mary McCarthy biography. It’s raining pretty hard. Noisy and windy. The ...

The calf died...

… but the vet had wisdom .. and consolation. Three things you can’t have too much of: love money penicillin And if you have too much of the first two, you might need the third.

I feel like writing.

Or do I? It’s hard to tell sometimes. I really have nothing to say.... except I want to say something. I could come up with various trivia. Yeah, I could. For some reason the so-called fact ...

Funny mood

I should be asleep. Obviously I’m not. I’m lonely. Not bad lonely. Just mildly lonely. I’m not even sure what would make me feel better. I don’t know what I want. I want something though. Eithe...

Three Day Weekend...

After working every Friday and Saturday in March, it’s nice to have Fridays off in April. There is something luxurious in three days in a row off work. When things work out well, you have time...

Bad train movies, etc.

Last Sunday, Easter, Jim took me to Reno Bottoms. It was a cool, breezy day and it was pleasant to be outside and moving. The place itself was exquisite, but it always is. We walked all the wa...

Seven Bellows in a row...

More than most book stores and a lot of libraries. Bellow has the advantage of being close to the beginning of the alphabet and thus sort of rises to the top of my book collection. It’s Saturday...

Testing 1, 2, 2.5...

This is another of those irritating tests. But ProseBox passed it. The editing window now expands as I type in it. Yesterday it was stuck at two lines high. So I’m glad it’s better. We all have o...


DO YOU LIVE IN A HOUSE OR AN APARTMENT? House - 2 story plus basement. Oldest part dates to before 1895 and newest part was added soon after the end of WWI. It’s an old farm house and hasn’t be...

What's going on?

I only have one line to type on. Is that how it is? Did I reset something by accident? Oh heck.

Survey, an impulse ...

When you looked at yourself in the mirror today, what was the first thing you thought? I need to do something to/with my hair. How much cash do you have on you? Five or ten bucks. What’s a wor...
