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. ♥

Switching things up a bit, and writing this as I drink my morning caffeine. (Why "caffeine" and not coffee or tea? Because some days I drink tea, and some days I drink coffee! Like a REBEL!!!!!) I had a hard time falling asleep last night, but judicious application of...

Had a late dinner with a friend, so ended up staying awake late, so ended up sleeping in late. Funny how that works. *rolls eyes* Since we did not get out of the house until nearly 8:00 am, I was well-slathered with sunscreen and drank a lot of water beforehand. I...

Yesterday was an emotional roller coaster for reasons I won't go into here, but suffice to say, I ended up sleeping in until 7:00 am, so our walk was hot, humid, and sunny by the time we made it out of the house. Bleargh!!!! Humidity is holding at 97% which is foul,...

At first I wanted to say that my week has not been very productive so far, but that would mean the long phone calls I had with friends on Monday and Tuesday were not "productive" which is a lie. Being at home alone with only Keely and the internet for company is 90%...

Walking around Lake Ella this morning, just before dawn, I noticed a lot of fresh new ducklings. There's usually two rounds of duckling surges over the summer, but I suspect given that this is happening on the cusp of August, that we'll likely have a third surge in...

Yesterday was definitely a day of rest, but I wonder if it was more like taking the jello salad out of the mold and letting it sit at room temperature...which is to say, I basically sat around decomposing all day and this morning I felt like a puddle. After getting up...

It was only about 75°F and 90% humidity this morning, so it made for an almost pleasant walk. For some reason Keely decided she did NOT want to go to Lake Ella, so we did a walk down Thomasville to 3rd Ave. and back up on Monroe St., but fortunately it was still early...

We got up a bit after 6:00 am but the "30% chance of rain" promised by my weather app failed to mention that said 30% was on top of our heads. Sooooo, it was a "breakfast first" kind of morning as we waited for the storm to pass. Finally went out at 8:00 am, but lo!...

The headache finally lifted yesterday, after copious amounts of water, caffeine, and (less copiously) ibuprofen. I got some things done and even took a short nap in the late afternoon, so overall, I'm counting it as a win! I'm sitting here at 8:50 am, writing this in...

Veryyyyy slow start to the morning as I was hit with a severe headache around 5:00 am. It's just super extra unfair when your body wakes you up before your alarms do, isn't it? And for a headache! Double unfair! So I took some aspirin and went back to bed to...

After I posted to this blog yesterday morning, my friend KimM picked me up and suddenly it was past 6:00 pm and we had killed a couple of bottles of champagne, yay mimosas! So, there went Sunday, bye bye! When I got home I fixed a snack and drank lots of water and...

Very rarely during sunrise do I see actual sun rays like this. I was hoping it would show up well in a photograph and it did! I only did a bit of color correcting and sharpening on this; otherwise it is a gen-u-ine sun ray of dawn! So pretty! As you can tell, we...
