So, on Friday, I called in sick because I was in extreme pain. Monday, I called in sick because my head was quite literally overflowing with bloody mucus and that isn’t a great thing to fight th...


Today my depression and inner short comings won. Everyone I try to help at work? They were outweighed. I get attacked by the government I represent. I get attacked by the Defendants who refus...


This weekend has been mostly nothing. Sleeping, walking the dog, not much else. Saw the latest Star Wars. So long as I separate everything out into the appropriate Multi-Verse Theory, I didn’t...


(Written from my phone) Today, I am being a little bitch. But I would argue that it is justified! You see, I am using a sick day today. I don’t feel too bad about that since my boss and one of...


I hope everyone had an enjoyable December 25th! After Christmas Morning, Brunch, loads of eggnog, a nap, and dinner… Nala and I returned home. Nala was exhausted as she hadn’t slept all day and...


So far it has been… meh. Woke up at 7, saw that Martha had wrapped my gift to my niece in the middle of the night. I packed up the car, drove to my parents house. Went to do errands for two hou...


DISCLAIMER: What I am going to talk about is emotionally close to me. That being said, I may be defensive about it. I say that not to discourage notes but to alert you to the fact that when dis...


I imagine that the majority of what I write in here today could easily and with no loss to anyone be ignored or skipped. But my silence (or lack of excessive words, I guess) as to the historical...


I feel like what I want to say is some kind of revealing self-exposing confession that will profoundly out me as an irredeemable hypocrite. I mean, I know better. Intellectually, I know that th...


I am feeling a sense of anxiousness. Not anxiety, not as I usually feel anxiety, anyway. Just a sense that I’d like to fast forward through the next bits. The legal filings, the push for Martha...


As I write this, I still haven’t decided whether I’ll respond to notes in my last entry individually or in a large clump here in this entry. Thus the joy of who I write my entries sometimes. Som...


Sometimes, I come here and think I should stop writing in here. It provides the illusion of friendship and social interaction; but that is all it is. An illusion. Ultimately, all this is, thi...


(1) Martha is taking Nala to the vet this morning. I hope the puppy is okay. She seems like she’s doing better but it would be awful to ignore this, feed her, and have her vomit 10 or more time...


Well… suck. Internet is largely buggy throwing out Netflix, YouTube, and Cable TV. And Nala is either having a REALLY bad reaction to the new food or is sick because she has vomited 7 times toda...


HERE is a survey that is going around. Because the work I was hoping to get done today? (1) Person gave me the wrong phone number so I can’t call them to tell them not to fly here next week (2) ...


Just as a thing that came up as I was looking up state statistics and comparing things between Minnesota, Wisconsin, Nebraska, and Iowa: Iowa is the 4th most obese state in the nation. Nebraska i...


So.... Today is a little busier. Not “running around crazy” busy but at least my morning is entirely spoken for. Afternoon? Not as much, but both morning and afternoon involve me attempting to...


Yup. Have about an hour of work left and… I’m going to spend it looking for amusing pictures to share in this space. It is a lot better than letting my mind go to anxious places about relationsh...


Sometimes the law is a slow and painful beast. Sometimes the law is a slow and painful beast because nobody is committing crimes. THAT is a good slow and painful beast. THAT is the kind of thin...


Recently I wrote something here that I felt would be sexually exhilarating. The comments I received, however, felt… judgmental. Running the gamut between “Looks like some has been watching too ...


Anxiety is playing with my head. I’m tackling it with logic. I am going forward with the separation because I want to be in a relationship that involves intimacy, trust, mutual emotional affect...


If there is one thing that is pretty obvious about me is that I am an anxious person. Hopefully, I don’t come across like that too much in person. I’d like to seem like a fairly average guy irl...


This is a bit more direct than I usually am. I am guessing this is because being “sexually active” again is allowing me to actually consider sex and sexuality in a “what do you like” perspective...


The title is actually literal. Not like “this life is a nightmare” but like… I had a nightmare that I couldn’t wake up from and it trapped me in the realm of Dream for a considerable amount of t...


Everyone just left. “J.D” and “Julia” and Remus and Victoria and Remus and Victoria’s children just left. And how would I assess the evening? I suppose I would call it a success. It certainly ap...
