I think it’s pretty safe to say that I’ve spent a fair amount of my Life avoiding responsibility. I don’t know where the trait took hold, but whether it’s simply choosing what was often the easier path, taking a job because it’s offered not because it’s something I pursued – or moving into my car…

So I’m tired of fighting. I haven’t posted anything political on Facebook for quite some time, I’ve been unfollowing and blocking freely. I am simply exhausted, and I don’t think it’s realistic to win hearts and minds on social media today. I’m tired. Happy dog in Fredericksburg, VA! And so I’ll rant on my little…

Rolling Eastbound and down. Passed a house. You know. A house on wheels. Swerving around on the interstate because it’s WAY too windy for houses to be out and about today, but no calamity ensued and we have left it miles behind us in the rearview mirror. What do we do with our off nights?…

The current situation is not ideal. Went to Guitar City to visit our friend who took it over last year… he knows his gear pretty well and it’s fun to not just talk guitars, but actual gizmos and devices… Brennan would’ve had a good time with this – and the owner actually REALLY knows his…

We’re about to wrap up our residency in Kansas – and by “about to wrap up” I mean we’re through the first three days and getting ready for one last marathon : 6+ hours at a local high school and then one last senior center before driving two and a half hours to Arkansas for…

It’s a good morning. Slow. The time change means my alarm went off before the sun rose, but even as it laboriously climbs over the horizon here in Manhattan, KS it’s not really lifting the grey too much. Huh. Looks like SOME towns have got the right idea… This was sitting next to my bed…

I don’t like the notion of an “insurance adjuster”. I’m sure there’s a logical and maybe even benign reason for them being called that, but it sure always FEELS like they’re the person responsible for “adjusting” what you’re going to receive for your years of payments, and that that’s NEVER what you’d agreed to when…

The last two nights we’ve spent with my old, old friend Jason Cox. And by “old” I mean “younger than me” but we’ve known one another since third grade or so. He plays games. Has a PhD in the world of role playing games. Like many people with doctorates, even in subjects that I think…
