62 Years Ago, The World Almost Or Could Have Ended
Today is the anniversary of the beginning of the Cuban Missile Crisis. At 69 I have vague memories of it. Mostly emotional. How fear seemed to be everywhere in everyone. I vaguely recall being g...
October 14 bits and pieces
With tongue in cheek, I say I used to fear nuclear war. As soon as I learned about it as a child about the time of the Cuban missile crisis, I feared it, I looked for it. I expected it but so fa...
October 13
Unease I have felt a growing anxiety that until tonight I was not able to understand. Now I do understand it’s all about politics. I have become terrified of somehow Trump winning the election....

Birds. A couple days ago I was late getting up and as I was in the bathroom, I heard a rush of wings and air, and both of my birds were in the bathroom. Buddy usually does not go to this part of...

I realized a very sad thing today: when I see an image or a piece of art, I can no longer trust it to be real. Often when I see a photograph, I do not trust it. There is so much bakery so much u...
This is not a real trump quote ;-)

October 10
Today I’ve realized that I feel something that’s rare for me to admit to feeling: loneliness. I’ve been alone most of my adult life. I was married for four years and I had girlfriends off and o...
Video: What If Trump Loses?
October 9
I used to think it’s funny that old people slept so damn much when they were retired. I realize now that being an old person that likes to sleep so much to nap so much it’s because we spent so m...

October 8
Today I wore long pants for the first time in months. It felt strange at first, and I noticed my pants came on easier than months ago due to lost weight. It felt very good. It’s nice to see the ...

Teeth I think there is something genetic about my teeth that makes them weak or decay faster than others. Everyone in my family has teeth problems. I seem to have the worst. Currently, I have ...
Noodle Birds
Buddy the badass yellow conure came down and perched near my right shoulder. He used to ignore me being the arrogant shit he can be. Lately he see’s I can be useful. Keeping his ass fed, for one...
October 6
Today I filled out the absentee ballot, and I put it in the mail. I think I did it all OK I just hope that nothing is wrong with the mailbox or that some kids have not damaged it. I feel my one ...

In my previous entry, I posted a video of the branch toy I have made for my birds. I reflect on the feeling of doing it and it makes me see that doing unconditionally. Something good for another...
2 More Branches Added
This mass of branches in living room idea took off mildly anxious never having done such a bizarre thing before but wisely I thought about it for months. I had a pile of branches in my spare roo...
The birds and I hanging out
Bird perch swing I made today
They may never use it but I had fun making it. I like to use tree branches due to the natural feel for the birds. https://youtube.com/shorts/uWj_xj-CxeQ
October 1
I started to watch the vice presidential candidates debate, but it was upsetting to my stomach so wisely I quit. I think my oldest brother is a very lonely person. He lives alone in the house....
Bonding time
When the sun goes down, my birds will often sit on my shoulder and chest. Even Buddy the Biter. So far he only bleeds my fingers. I had a nice one-way chat with him tonight. I better be careful ...
Disbelief incredulity
For the first time in my life, I have become passionate about politics because in this next US election I do believe it will be a matter of democracy or fascism. Day after day, I look at YouTub...
September 29 various topics
It’s not always bad news. I told myself that many times. I’m a news junkie and go through much news each day. It doesn’t depress me because I know the world is not all bad news. It’s just what i...
