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. ♥

Today we got out right at 6:00 am and it was ALMOST pleasant out. A mere 68°F and 84% humidity! A hint of a breeze! No sun! It was as good as it gets, going into summer around here. I have reached the stage of not opening the blinds during the day; my apartment...

Out at around 6:30 am, and went for a long walk through Los Robles. Keely had to be coaxed the whole way but then when, an hour later, we got home she pulled on the leash to keep walking. DOG! Make up your MIND! Still futzing around with the camera, here we go, two...

I simply cannot believe it is June 5th already. The year? Is half? GONE??!?!??! Yesterday was the three month mark for me since I quit my job. I have spent a lot more money than I had hoped, but admittedly a good portion of that was on business expenses - a new...

I'm walking out the door like a cyborg these days: phone, earbuds, camera, digital recorder, lavalier mic. Plus doggo, plus cane (aka defensive weapon against geese), plus sun hat...it's an expedition! That said, Keely is very impatient while I gear up, and is not...

Today is Friday, which I feel the need to state clearly since I spent most of the morning thinking it is Saturday. Of course, the irony here is that it really makes no difference to my life. I'm self-employed and work from home, so y'know, it's not like a get "a...

For some strange reason my brain did not want to "shut down" last night so I experienced a very unusual bout of insomnia. While it is something my mother dealt with on a daily basis, it is not an issue I inherited from her; instead I take after my father, who could...
6/1/2022 – Wednesday but make it Hurricane Season
Most know I'm not too superstitious, but one thing I tend to put faith in is my ability to pre-judge how bad hurricane season is going to be, and folks, I think we're in for a doozy this year. (bookmarking this so I can come back to it in September to post-judge...

It's interesting that no matter who I talk to or where they are in the world or, for that matter, where they are in life, the discussion always curves around to the topic of "trauma brain." Everyone is exhausted, everyone is traumatized, everyone is struggling....

I took this photo over the weekend but, ugh, could not bring myself to share it. The Three Old Ladies are no more; only one remains: It looks like the one on the left was rotted through, and the one on the right not much better off, so I understand removing them...

Sunday! It was somewhat not-hot (65°F) this morning, so we had a pleasant walk around Lake Ella, where I snapped this sunrise: I've had some great shots of dawn over the pond recently and I finally figured out why: the fountain in the middle is not running, and has...

Feels good to be back in the groove...not that I've gotten much done today other than drink some coffee! We're waiting for the rain to move through, although I think at least for Tally it's more threat and less action. At least it is a nice cloud layer to keep the sun...

Horrific news cycle yet again...how anyone can look at what happens here in the USA far too often and not see how broken our country is baffles me...I can't even engage with anyone who would dismiss such tragedy. The people jumping in to yell "soft target!" as if the...
