A Haiku As A Lame Excuse
Work ate today's post...
Homo Sapiens, Almost Evolved
I had to do a lot of technical writing at work today, which is something you'd think would be right down Broadway for me. Yeah, no such luck. When it comes to technical things, I like creating. But writing dull, critical, required documentation about said creating. Not so much. The good news is, though, even … Continue reading Homo Sapiens, Almost Evolved
5 Things On My Mind Right Now
I haven’t been saying much lately. Wait, no, that’s not true. That suggests I’ve been roaming around the house in a mute daze like Frankenstein’s monster.

Or maybe I'll be out tracking that black bear that's been making cameos in suburban Cincinnati this week. With luck, I can reunite … Continue reading That Big, Beautiful Space Above Your Head

Well, okay, so life is actually never any of those things for the part … Continue reading Some Days
Monday Musing, May 12, 2014
Okay, so as far as musings go, this one is a lot more “announcement” than “meditative contemplation”. But then again, it’s Monday and I was up too late watching Game of Thrones last night. So I guess I’m just going to be happy today’s musing isn’t three line of gibberish followed by a bolded “Meh,” … Continue reading Monday Musing, May 12, 2014
