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 in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020

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...


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...


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...


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...


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...


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...


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 ...


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. ...


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...


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...


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 in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020

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...


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...


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: 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...


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 in Book Seven: Reconstruction 2020

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...


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...


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...


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...


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 ...


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...


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...


Now or later, when Martha moves out, I’m especially reminded that… if I had a good desktop computer and business-line at home? On non-court days, I wouldn’t need to leave my house. Which would ...
