  • Necessary

    Is this site necessary? No, probably not, but I keep it. Heck, I’ve even got other domains, none of which are doing much but they do exist. Why? Because I like to have options. Because a little part of my brain thinks I’ll maybe need them later, though it doesn’t know for what purpose. I…

  • March 2024

    Doh! Missed another month; not that March is a very exciting one for me, just taxes, taxes, taxes… And chilling with Lucy, while we stare out at those crazy birds that keep entering the backyard without our permission.

  • February 2024

    I mentally missed the end of the month, not at work, there I was very aware of the end of February because it is the deadline for tax slip filing, but here I missed it. I had been on a good run of posting at least monthly. So let’s pretend it is still February when…

  • January 2024

    The more orbits of the Sun I do, the more I realize that my brain doesn’t align with the “new year” starting on January 1st. Yes, I live in a Western society that ascribes to this calendar new year, but even if I take time off over the holiday season I still start January exhausted…

  • November 2023

    This has been an absolutely exhausting month (on top of a year of irritating months). It started with my being disappointed by someone who I thought was a better person than they turned out to be. They took a multi-year professional relationship and made a number of decisions leading to its destruction, while also making…

  • Just Another Tuesday

    I’m bored. With what you may ask? With everything I would answer. You would think, that is not possible, there is so much in the universe, how could one possibly get bored of everything? It’s like this, once you are a little bored with one thing, you start to become bored with all the other…

  • The Season

    It is too early in the tax year for me to be this exhausted and for my brain to turn mush. I haven’t even been working the same hours I was this time last year and yet, I feel twice as tired. Hopefully, this isn’t a sign of what is to come. This year was…

  • Shared Abyss

    Whenever I sit down to write something here I always start questioning why I want to write something, if I am feeling obligated or if I have something to say. I wonder if I should write something general or personal, mundane or exciting, who will read it and if that should somehow inform my choices.…

  • Out of Office

    I booked a holiday. No, I booked a trip. It is a holiday for me, but since it isn’t to a tropical or foreign destination and I won’t be staying in hotels or doing touristy things I assume most people wouldn’t call it a holiday exactly. I am going to go visit friends. I am…

  • Review: 4 out of 5 Stars*

    This morning, as I do on most mornings, I was standing in my local coffee shop waiting for my order to be prepared and chatting with the staff. The owner came in staring at their mobile phone with a bit of a perplexed look on their face. When they noticed us looking at them, they…
