I had a really productive day! Those days used to be the norm, but over the past–I don’t know; few months? A year?–they’ve become more the exception. Maybe that sluggish streak ends today. Or maybe I’ve been ramping up for a while now, without realizing it. It wouldn’t be the first time something like that … More Mental Health Monday indeed 🙂
A neat post by a wonderful fellow blogger, titled “Dropouts”, caught my attention today. In it, the author discusses various successful people who never attended or finished college (or university for my British lovelies). The post got me thinking about the current exalted regard for a college education in the US (but only if a … More The case against college
I know that we’ve got one more day left of the month, but I’ll probably be a bit busy tomorrow, so I’ll write this today, in case my workload gets the best of me tomorrow. 🙂 It’s been an interesting couple of weeks! But some of you knew that already. 😉 It’s been a little … More End of July health status update
My partner is one of those people I tend to envy. He can say anything, things I wouldn’t dare say, things I can’t say with a straight face, things most people couldn’t or wouldn’t try to pull off. And he’ll say it with the straightest of faces, that deadpan look. He can pull off anything. … More Sh*t my partner says
Facebook is a popular critical target–the type that most people use (although that number is dropping, I think), and the type that many (including myself) grumble about but keep using anyway. I’ve been tempted throughout most of my so-far-8-year Facebook stint to leave altogether, but for some reason, I hang on, hanging in there. Actually, … More Facebook, leave me alone
Today I thought I’d pull up a chair and have a very serious discussion. For some, it might even mean the difference between life and death. I thought if maybe what I have to say might save one life, it’s more than worth it. Because it could have easily cost me mine. I wrote a … More Another mystery solved (?)
Confession time: I’ve fallen off my horse. I’m back on kreteks, for now. I spit the words as I type them. I’m not happy or proud. I’m anything but. And I’m not about to make excuses. Confessions are about telling the truth. And the truth is yin and yang, good news and bad. The good … More I slipped and fell (on my health recovery path)
The title says it all, but it doesn’t end there. Tired stretches on, long and monotonous, ending at some point beyond the horizon. Some of you know what I’m talking about. It’s that time of year, after all. Late July in South Texas means that it’s been too hot for too long already. Everybody’s out … More I’m tired
When I was young, I had a rock collection. The region I lived in was not particularly geographically dramatic or interesting, so the bar was low. Granite was considered exciting; lovely white, iridescent quartz made my day. Most of the rocks were not very large; they could be found on the side of the then-unpaved … More On the rocks
It’s only been about 6 weeks and already, I’ve managed to screw a few things up in Vape-Land, and pretty egregiously at that. In my defense, however, I will say that newbie vaping mistakes are pretty common. Vaping almost seems like an elite club. Not that the people who vape are elitist in any way … More My newbie vaping mistakes
