Fascinated by technology since the Trash 80 came out. A grand lover…of coffee. My patron saint is Grumpy Cat, I live alone by choice, and I read way too much fanfiction. Cursed to live during interesting times.

The better soul of the house, and probably the smartest too. Definitely the cutest. She’s what gets me out of bed in the mornings and makes my life far more joyous every day than I deserve. ♥

Slept well and woke up feeling good, so we were out the door by 6:15 am, well before dawn. It was still 76°F and 96% humidity, though, so it was hardly pleasant, but at least not too miserable! We're deep in to the summer doldrums, everything is weighted with the haze...

Time for some faux-coyote wildlife photography!!!! It's looking a little wonky due to the storms that came through yesterday. The owner moves it around occasionally, though, so I'm sure our beloved coy-NO-te will be standing up straight sometime soon! As you can see...

Got out for our walk a little after 6:00 am, and while it was already 77°F and 95% humidity, it was just barely first light. I thought this was a Mucha sky, but it wasn't until I was processing the photo that I noticed the effects of the clouds, too. I love it when my...

Day is starting off fast for me! Recording a podcast with my Around the Writer's Table co-hosts at 9:30 am, then a scheduled 11:30 am phone call to catch up with my friend Jeanine. Still, I'm feeling a little sluggish, and Keely did not drag me out for a walk until...

It actually feels like a Monday, for once. I took Saturday off completely, but while I did do some work yesterday I ended up having an impromptu Ladies Luncheon with my friends Gina and Melody (you might know them from our podcast, Around the Writer's Table!). Turns...

Yesterday was mostly spent resting. I have decided to take a hint from the ancestors and devote Saturday to not-working. I'm not particularly observant so I'm not designating it as recognizing the sabbath in any particularly religious way, but definitely in the spirit...

Everything was thrown off this morning by rain! Keely, as usual, was very disinclined to go out to pee in even the lightest of rains, so the walk did not happen first thing this morning, but instead at around 10:00 am! When it was hot and humid and icky. No way to...

Brain was whirring last night in a kind of neutral way — not anxiety, not productivity — so didn't get to sleep until 11:00 pm! I was SO tired! Insomnia is not my usual gig and I was not appreciative. 😒 Nonetheless we got out before 7:00 am for Keely's walk, because...

You are getting another photo of a beautiful Florida dawn, life it or not, because it truly was beautiful, and also I was happy with the framing – the ducks, the spanish moss, the clouds. My Florida at its best IMHO: Yesterday was good and bad. It's been a "struggle...

I did, actually, sit down at my desk by 9:30, after walking the dog and doing yoga and drinking my tea and taking a shower, but for some reason the rest of the morning was a wash. I just finished lunch and so am now sitting down to my "workday" plans, including this...

This morning was discombobulated as, when I initially got up between 5:30-6:00am, my trusty weather apps both said that it was cloudy with a light chance of rain. As I put on my sneakers, Keely anxiously waiting by the door, the floodgates opened and a torrential...

Truly it was already 80°F at 6:00 am, wtf. Anyway, I hustled us out the door so we were done before the sun was barely breaking over the treelines. I am channeling my father when I say, "gonna be a scorcher!" Rain later, maybe. I've stopped having any faith in weather...
