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. ♥

A rocky night of repeatedly waking up for no reason resulted in me tumbling out of bed at 5:30 a.m., much to Keely's joy. She also go full lead to drag me wherever she wanted, which was mostly the usual jaunt up to 3rd, over to Duval, and up to the Publix plaza and...

I have missed the last couple of days because I am feverishly working to clear the decks at my day job in preparation for a two week vacation. That of course means everything I've either been procrastinating on or had brewing on the back burner came due, and I've been...

Feeling more rested, we actually got out of the house well before 6 a.m., so while it was already 70°F outside there was the lingering coolness of night to enjoy. A couple of things I noticed as we walked, the more important one being the utter lack of duck broods...

Yesterday was a disconcerting day...fun for the most part as I hung out with my friend Kim, but then got home and felt off kilter. I took to bed like a Victorian maiden with a fainting spell (sans fainting) and ate junk food for dinner. Which is all to say that this...

Yesterday was the FSU Student Memorial ceremony, which is usually held annually except during pandemics, so it was held in memory of two years worth of student losses. That number was near 30, which is abnormally high on average (more common is about five, for...

Embarrassingly, I quite simply forgot to post an update yesterday. I got to work and am in the midst of several projects, and though they aren't urgent, I just became swept up in them and suddenly it was evening and my head hurt and I went to bed early. Woe! This...

I woke up to a severe thunderstorm warning and crisp, clear skies. Oh, Florida... I know it rained before we got out at 5:30 a.m. because everything was wet and puddles abounded. Keely practiced water-aversion by keeping to the outer edge of the sidewalk all the way...

Welp, we've finally turned the corner to "two showers a day" season. It was 75°F and over 80% humidity at 6 a.m. when we got out for our walk, and by the time we returned to the house, Keely was damp and I was sweat-slick. Bleargh. I tend to take quick showers,...

Like any good worker drone, I find the very concept of Monday depressing. I usually wallow in bed, wallow in denial, until Keely gets impatient and starts stomping and jumping on me. Sadly for her, I find that adorable because it is something she took years to work up...

Today's photo is from last night, because I've been wanting to take this exact shot for two weeks but when I walk by on the weekends (it's not part of our usual weekday strolls around the pond) the light of the nascent sunrise reflects off the windows and makes it...

While both doggo and I were awake by 5:30 a.m., neither of us was too interested in getting up. She curled up on my legs for more sleeping, and I read on my phone until sunlight starting creeping through the blinds. We were out by 7 a.m. nonetheless. It was still...

Since it is a WFH day and I don't have to rush out the door to be at work by 8 a.m., I wallowed in bed for a bit after the alarms went off. Keely tolerated this with patience until she didn't, then rolled all over me demanding cuddles before hopping off the bed to...
