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. ♥

Another soft start to the day — yesterday's stint at co-working with Gina was great as always but also exhausting as always! However we made a lot of progress on my special super seekrit project, which bolstered my mood a lot. Today is all about sweeping up bits and...
7/6/2022 – It is, in fact, Wednesday
This entire morning after I woke up and as I took Keely for a walk it completely skipped my mind that today is Wednesday, aka co-working day with Gina! So there I am at around 7:30 am, leisurely drinking my tea, pondering my plans for the day when my phone lit up with...

Over the weekend, KimM and I went to the big rich-people's Target north of town. It's as big as a Walmart and the SUVs in the parking lot WILL run you over without a second glance. What is hilarious to me though is that they now have this, the Men's Personal Care...

I was on the phone with a friend this morning and Keely decided to be adorable, so I tried to take an "on the fly" photo of her. Her tail is a blur!!!! She was begging for a treat, thus watching my other hand carefully in case a treat should magically appear: Gosh, my...

It's the day before a major holiday here in the states, one where tradition dictates a lot of fireworks, and part of me is thinks that making every city sound like a war zone is very apt. I will not be celebrating. Instead, I'll be doing what I always do: take Keely...

This is how Keely "herds" me out of bed: she comes in and flops against me and waves her feet in the air until I sit up and give her belly rubs. She's 100% awake in this photo and kicking me with her hind feet: She accepts her due attention for a few minutes then...
7/1/2022 – Friday
It's a fight between typing "6/1/2022" and "7/1/2020" and nothing is right. I need more caffeine! We did not get out of the house until 6:45 am, but that's down to Keely. My alarm went off at 5:30 am as usual and she usually stumbles into my room after that to pester...
6/30/2022 – Thursday
As always, Thursday is a slow start. I think it's because I work very hard on Wednesdays when I go with my friend Gina to the co-working event at Domi Station — it's not even about being at an erstwhile "office," it's that we spend a lot of time talking about our...

Meanwhile, back at the ranch... That was stuck on a lamp post at Lake Ella, for context. It's been a tough week...year? Decade? Dunno. It's not just politics; it's climate change, it's pandemic, it's friends who have suffered tragic losses across the board along with...

The State of Things pushed me into a depressed fugue state for most of the weekend, so no updates to this blog happened. All that did happen were far too many glasses of vodka...bad life choices but also, valid IMHO. Anyway, here was a brilliant cloud from this...

Another blistering hot day in the works, same as yesterday, but there is a promise of rain later. Not sure how helpful that will be overall, even if it's bringing slightly cooler weather with it, but let me tell you that the grass here in town is all turning dull...
6/23/2022 – Thursday
It's getting to a be an old meme by now but YIKES is it hot out. It was already over 80°F at 6:30 am — in fact it was still 86°F at 10:30 pm last night! My apartment is in full-cave mode, with all the blinds closed and curtains drawn. The reflective window film I put...
