I am not being chased.

December 22, 2017
But I run now. I joined the legions of Couch to 5kers almost three months ago, and I haven't progressed all that much. Being sick a few times and a vacation trip caused some setbacks but not by a lot. I'm just not supposed to run as I've always said. I'm not that out of…

    I had stopped writing here long before it closed. One could say a lot has changed, but a lot has not too. For instance, I still haven't forgiven certain individuals, and the whole thing still torments me a little every day. Work... Work, work, work... promoted and more stressed than ever but appe...

    I have dreaded every Fathers Day since my dad went to prison. You try reading through all of the cards for this holiday and see how many you find that seem even romotely appropriate for mailing to a convict.I didn't think it would be easy and haven't even bothered for the last two years, but…

    I guess I've lost my muse. So much for making use of a Lifetime membership. I may as well donate it and just use the free vrsion for as much as I write here now, but this mobile version is pretty cool. The full site is just too slow on my phone. So many of…

    How many times have I said that? Well, we'll see if I can follow through this time. I just reopened most of my old entries, and reading some of them reminded me that I'm pissed off a lot. Well, not really. I think I've actually improved despite the challenges and frustrations I've faced (if road&...

  • [Belated] Post-Election thoughts
    November 13, 2008
    I am writing this now because I would probably later regret not capturing my thoughts about such an historic election before they are trampled into dust by time marching on. I am pleased with the result as many are but not because I expect Mr. Obama to affect any dramatic changes himself. The cur...

    Feel free to make up your own caption to that.We've been doing a lot of hiking lately, and a joke that emerged from the frequent sighting of litter prompted me to start a photo blog of trash found on the trails. That's right - I said "trash", but it's photos of trash with my attempt…

I had an A on the final and B+'s on the other two exams that really brought my score up.I am registered for next semester to take Microprocessor Assembly Language (with lab), and Linear Algebra. This morning, however, I received&hel...

    Hello... I still exist. I fell ill on Wednesdnight last week, so I didn't go to work or school on Thursday or Friday. I didn't do much at home other than play games too. And this week at work, I've been in all day meetings every day. That kind of worked out because the Help…

  • two failures in a row

    I failed to even place in the top three of five contestants in the Toastmasters area contest last night. Any tonight I failed my first Calc II exam. I was pretty mad at myself for the exam on the way home, but I've cooled off now.I probably set myself up for this earlier when I…
