I know it has been awhile since I have written. I just – haven’t had much to say. It has been really busy – although for the life of me, I couldn’t say what with. It isn’t like I have been working out or anything. Or even traveling that much. Life just happens. It’s actuallyContinueContinue reading “Happy Independence Day! Yay for long weekends! And other random stuff.”

Interaction with a Successful Pirate. . . Err . . . Salesman.
So it finally happened. The day I always knew would come. The day I gave into a pushy pirate. I was left alone and helpless – a single impressionable figure in the midst of a crowd. I did the right thing. I buried my face in my phone, didn’t glance his way, barely mumbled thankContinueContinue reading “Interaction with a Successful Pirate. . . Err . . . Salesman.”
Growing older
As I sit outside in the fading light, I feel both restfulness and a bit of sadness fall over me. One never seems to come without the other. A sense of growing older and life passing me by consistently taps me on the shoulder, especially when looking over peaceful sights such as the sun sinkingContinueContinue reading “Growing older”
Just a Rainy Day
So it rained on Monday. I knew the forecast called for rain, and yet, I looked out the window and determined that if it wasn’t raining right then, the likelihood of it raining during the time I was walking to and from work was pretty nil. And I was right! for about 90% of theContinueContinue reading “Just a Rainy Day”
Writer’s Digest Your Story #66
Not going to lie, I am nervous to even put this on my blog because I know it is awful. But it is the first story I have actually completed in probably years. So, I thought I would take a deep breath and post it anyway. This story was in response to the Writer’s DigestContinueContinue reading “Writer’s Digest Your Story #66”
A Starbuck’s Kind of Day
I woke up this morning unhappy. To start with, it was 9:00 AM! And I was AWAKE! On one of the few days I could sleep in! Now, I don’t want any smart aleck remarks from you morning people. Yes, 9:00 AM on a holiday morning is way too early. Especially when you were upContinueContinue reading “A Starbuck’s Kind of Day”
The Turning Point. . . and Character Sketches
Tonight I made lasagna, baking powder biscuits, and, again, salad. Although, I don’t think the salad should count since it is a pre-mixed bag. Because I grew up saving money, I still always immediately grab the most inexpensive ingredient I see at the grocery store. This time, interestingly, the least expensive cheese for my lasagnaContinueContinue reading “The Turning Point. . . and Character Sketches”
Relaxation Time
Today was my first truly relaxing day in ages. Granted, last Sunday, I did nothing but sleep all day, but I felt like that was more recovering from the previous couple weeks and simultaneously saving up to survive the next couple weeks. Today felt different, mostly, I think, because I get three days in aContinueContinue reading “Relaxation Time”
Stalling Techniques. :P
Technically, I am about to be in a meeting. One of our planning meetings. But since it is the last thing I feel like doing today, I figured I would distract myself for the last couple minutes before people start filtering in by writing a very random post indeed. A meeting every day for threeContinueContinue reading “Stalling Techniques. :P”
Just an Update
What a month it has been! And what a month it will continue to be. I have either had guests or been gone on business and personal trips for all but 4 days in the last month, and will be traveling every week for the next month as well. Don’t get me wrong – IContinueContinue reading “Just an Update”
