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. ♥
12/18/2022 – Sunday & sorry for the absence
This past week was exhausting in a lot of ways, so updates to Keely's Way were the first to slide off the agenda! I apologize! ...not that I think anyone was waiting breathlessly for news, but still. I've returned home, booted up the computer, and am back in business!...

Good morning from the bright morning sunrise over here at Jacksonville. I'm not here on vacation but there will be some down time here and there. We're staying at a very bland AirBnB, which was not my choice but I'm here as a support brace. I already miss my dog, who...

Holiday decorations watch: still not there. It's just so curious! It was super foggy this morning, which ended with this photo of spanish moss framing Lake Ella. It's a color photograph but that's just how thick the fog was this morning! It was a nice 58°F but again,...

I'm slow moving today, mostly because yesterday was loooong. I was co-working at Domi Station with Gina all day, then we attended the Women Wednesdays event there in the evening. It was a great presentation by Heidi Otway, well worth staying for! Which means we did...

The "Lake Ella Missing Holiday Decorations Watch" continues, as it is now fully into the first week of December and there are still no sparkling lighted decorations hanging off the lamp-posts. As mentioned before, the braces used to support the decorations were...

It was a nice chilly morning, just about 45°F, so I was layered up and wearing gloves like a proper Floridian. I can tell Keely is getting older as she was excited to go out but moved pretty slowly once we were out in the windy cold. One interesting thing I've noticed...

For those keeping up, I've been suffering "tennis" elbow in my left (dominant) arm for a few weeks. It's actually "computer" elbow, and fortunately I'm slightly ambidextrous so I've shifted my mouse back over to my right hand. However that still left typing, and...

It was, as usual, a fairly mild holiday weekend, with upper temps in the mid-70s°F and high humidity. Yet, it also looked very wintery, as witnessed by this shot I took on Friday at Lake Ella, facing north. That is the walkway out to the gazebo: Keely did not want to...
11/24/2022 – Thanksgiving Thursday
For all of us in the USA, today is Thanksgiving, an official federal holiday that you probably already know involves visiting friends & family and (traditionally) eating a big ol' turkey. Poor turkeys. Which always puts me in mind of... If you know, you know......

It is absolutely SHOCKING to me that Thanksgiving is THIS week and we're already moving into the winter holidays season. WTF, 2022? What happened? This also means it's been almost nine months since I quit FSU, and despite my financial situation still be precarious, I...

COLD! I am COLD! It was in the mid-40s Fahrenheit during our walk this morning, which heavily-furred Keely loved joyfully! I at least bundled up in several layers of tee-shirts (this is Florida, after all) and survived. Meanwhile, as the temps edges up to 60°F...

It wasn't quite as cold as I was expecting this morning, just below 60°F, but it was misty and...I guess the word is "blustery"! So I bundled up and Keely pranced around excitedly and we were out for our walk before 7:00 am. Which is to say, this photo is from a...
