Its been a rainy few days here. Right now my son is out playing frisbee in the rain. You can imagine that I’m thrilled by this. I just don’t get it. I went to the gym on Monday and my legs are still sore from the workout with the trainer. So sore, in fact, that [...]

a quiet Sunday

I would love to say I’ve been insanely busy or something, but I’ve just been slacking. I need another 30 things to get me blogging more again. Right now I’m just sitting here watching football, so I can take a break and post a little something. Last week I cleaned the house. Hardcore. It felt [...]
Labor day

It’s labor day, and I’ve not labored a bit. I’ve been in my nest flipping between the US Open, a Criminal Minds marathon, and floating around the internet. Hang on, very tense tiebreak happening… My mind has been wrapped up for the past couple of days in my aloneness. I went out on Saturday night [...]
Which seat should I take? It’s Friday!

One of my spam comments said “Preach it to me brother.” Umm, ok? I’m having one of those Fridays. I woke up congested, took allergy meds, STILL congested. I don’t know why either. I’ve been outside but I was congested before I went out. Its actually quite nice outside. Warm, but not humid. Its weird [...]

My dad quit radiation. He had a week to go. The doctor wants to see him to discuss possible ways they could finish it off, but I don’t know that there will be any changing of his mind. The side effects have gotten really bad. His face and neck are swollen, he’s coughing up blood [...]

My 200th post. Its only taken me a couple of years to get here. Most of that in the past year. I’m happy to have a few readers now, and other blogs to read. I need to comment more. Remind me to do that. Things have been going alright this week. On Sunday I scrubbed [...]

There’s a pounding rain falling on the roof. I love that sound. Its so relaxing and refreshing. I wish I could record it and play it from speakers in the ceiling. I think my dad is starting to feel the side effects of radiation. He’s tired and acts like he doesn’t feel well. He’s supposed [...]

I’ve been doing a bit better the past few days. I’ve been waking up around the same time, going to bed at roughly the same time. I still wake up a bunch in the middle of the night but whatever. Maybe that will go away eventually. My dad, however, is being a whiny pain. I [...]
bad week

Last week was a real black hole for me. I was exhausted and my sleep schedule was all messed up. I took my dad to radiation on Monday but Zach took him the rest of the week because I was so bleary and tired. On Tuesday I was dizzy and spaced out, still not sure [...]

I opened wordpress to find I had 21 spam comments to get rid of. I don’t know why they suddenly shot up like that. Twitter bots, probably, since I have it automatically post to twitter, and I’ve got a bunch of spam bots following me, or at least I consider them spam bots when they [...]
