Here’s to 2020 vision
I have crappy vision. There I said it. When I was nine years, I started to wear glasses. Or so I think. I know for sure that at 14 years old, I was wearing glasses. And, I hated it. It designated me as a nerd. Or so that’s […]
She used the yellow crayon to dial into the past
For thirteen years she had heard of him. The impact of his hardships on her current day-to-day life. The season was over and they had lit their last candle. She wanted to know the full story. All of it. She picked up the receiver and used the yellow […]
Twas many nights past Christmas and there came an upper respiratory infection
It is Friday. How exciting! A short work week. Next week we really dive in to making the year all that it can be. I normally wish to not wait. However, I have become a statistic. Like countless others I have come down with aches, chills, and general […]
Now it is time to swell back down
I did pretty well this holiday season. I didn’t overindulged. I just indulged. I didn’t over-buy. I just bought enough. I didn’t over-reflect. I just reflected what I needed in order to keep moving forward. I’d like to say that I applied the right lessons from past holiday […]
Happy new year and here’s to an upcoming wild ride
To quote Gwen Stefani, it’s going to be bananas. B-A-N-A-N-A-S. And, not just because its going to be a leap year. Or because there will be four months in a row with a supermoon. I believe everyone knows to expect chaos and the unexpected this coming year. In […]
I am going back to my roots: Poetically bold is my word for 2020
I’ve got this! Took me a week or more. Actually a few months. Each year, just like Merriam Webster and others alike, I chose a word of the year. Sometimes it is retrospectively applied. Other times, I pick a word for the coming year to help frame my […]
The streaming decade: Happily a true continuity of narrative
Now, while inauthenticity may have risen this past decade, there were also good things to come about. Before I dive into that let me note that one can perhaps argue that inauthenticity didn’t rise. Perhaps it was just more overt and blatant. Inauthenticity put on a show this […]
Personal highlights from the past decade: 500 shoes, countless cities and a constant melody
Despite me not being 100% sold on this coming week being the last week of decade, I’ll still go ahead with my own retrospective. Before diving into that, what I meant is that I am partly of the belief that the decade starts in 2021. But if everyone […]
It is the end of the decade or is it?
An acquaintance posted on their Facebook feed how they were taking a break from social media for the rest of the decade and that they could be reached solely via text. I immediately was amazed that this particular person would go offline for a year. Then I realized […]
Still no post-credit scene for any Star Wars movie: And, that’s a wrap
I am not a big Star Wars fan. The only movie in the series I really liked was Rogue One and it is stand-alone. However, I went into this latest Star Wars viewing experience with an open mind. A hopeful mind. This year has been rather ho-hum when […]
