Today feels like an important day in history. Like some battle of something. I know it is President’s Day but… I just get the feeling it is something bigger. 1801 Thomas Jefferson is elected th...
Yes, I'm bitching
So… my mind has not been my friend these last 34 hours. I keep wondering… how am I so easy to not care about? I mean… Martha knows me better than every other human on this planet. We’ve been to...
Yeah
She’s safe. She returned. She says that she drank too much to drive home. She also says they never even got to the movies she brought over because they talked so much. She also says that they...
Oh...uhm...well
Last night, Martha had to leave for her date as soon as I got home. I took Nala for a VERY FRIGID hour long walk (as she had not been walked since Wednesday) Played tug and chase with Nala for ab...
Academic Cinematic
Perhaps this would be best placed in the intellectual book that I don’t write in much anymore, but I feel that this is less purely academic and more hobby-academic so why not place it here? That...
Fun Photo
Since my last entry talked about my puppy I wanted to share an adorable photo of her from last night. I was sitting in a chair next to the couch as Nala had taken my seat when I went to the bath...
Consider this More Summary
Nala has entered a weird and bullshit stage in her development. I suppose I could blame Martha but it seems far more appropriate to blame Nala herself. So… when I’m at work… Nala is bored to te...
One More Time
It is funny. This has been a remarkably mild winter compared to last year. The snow, the cold, the… everything. It was consistently brutal last year. This year it keeps being VERY inconsisten...
Clarifications, Reminders, and Histories
In truth, I wasn’t going to write this. In truth, I was going to start writing more private entries. Because processing in public can be helpful but when people who I have deeply trusted for a ...
Tuesday and Random Bits
RANDOM BIT ONE I went to bed last night at 10:00 p.m. When I woke up this morning, my legs were in pain and my back felt like someone had used it for accordion practice. In short: LOTS of pain. ...
The Talk
So… it didn’t take long. I came home. Pet the dog. Showed Martha that I bought stuff for dinner. Then she discussed how all she had done today was homework for her Biology lab because it took...
Survey, I'm always stealing them from P.M.
Before I get to the survey: (1) I am telling Martha to get an apartment and get a separate bank account by March 1st. I imagine this will go one of two ways, because that is Martha all over. E...
Let This Be Stated
This shall be a recap of my weekend and an ongoing narrative of thought from today. However, before I continue, I shall state that which has been obvious but not shared in such specific wording:...
CP&W
Barometric Pressure. Snow. Cold Temperatures. My body hasn’t been doing great. Case in point? Today I wanted to wake up and get stuff done. I went to bed at about 1 a.m. last night (this mornin...
It Cuts Both Ways
One thing that is valuable about Martha is that she is very frugal. The other thing about that is… frugality is not, in and of itself, a value. Buying a $10 pair of shoes may SEEM like a good d...
Friday
I woke up at 2:30 to the dog whining. I got up to let her out and she ran to her toys and started chewing on her nyla-bone. Okay. Whatever. You go ahead and chew on that, I’m going back to be...
Good Bad
Good: It seems that my work for this week is entirely completed Good: That means I got to catch up on Prosebox book marks! Good: That means I got to review the upcoming stuff! Bad: February 20th...
Thoughts from the Morning
Last night’s dreams were… steamy… and unsatisfying. Obviously I’ve been a bit “randy”. I’m trying to focus on being productive, getting work done, being independent. Hell, when I got home last ...
Notes
Note 1: I did not have sex last night. Honestly, I don’t want to confuse the issue any more than it already is. Because I still honestly think Martha hasn’t quite accepted or figured out the si...
Slightly More Personal
Crikey, I’m tired. I shouldn’t be. Well, I shouldn’t be and I should be all at the same time. You see, yesterday was a big long day with lots of productivity. Basically it was like shower, wo...
A Brief
Can’t write much at the moment. Morning looks to be productive but the same can’t be said confidently about this afternoon. So may write more later. But bloody hell! If I was embarrassed of Io...
Cue The Mamas & the Papas
For those too young or too disconnected from the music of the late 1960s, The Mamas & the Papas sang the song “Monday, Monday”… as today is Monday, the title is merely a convoluted way to tit...
A Needed Statement
I get it. I shouldn’t care what people think, what people say, or how people view me. That shouldn’t be something that I care about in the slightest. I understand that intellectually. But if ...
Sixty Second Saturday Summary
So… I called in to work on Friday. I had spent Thursday night coughing and hacking and I figured with how crazy busy February is going to be for us… calling in on a slow day would be smarter for...
THE LAST THURSDAY OF january 2020
Y’all have been prolific today… which I find interesting. I’ve never really “charted” the active times for people on Prosebox but it is interesting that a day where I really have stuff to do all...
Book Description
I was 20 when I first started taking pills that let me see the world with a little less pain. A few months after that, I met a woman that I thought was beautiful and interesting. When I was 26, I proposed. We married when I was 27 and moved to Omaha. That is where our marriage ABSOLUTELY fell apart. That was 2011. For the last many years; I had been trying to salvage the marriage. At the end of 2019, I told my wife that we needed to separate. This year we file, she moves out, and I try to figure out how to get my shit sorted.
