And boy, was today interesting. Algebra class went off without a hitch, although it was a close thing – I used the last sheet of notebook paper I had taking my final notes, so once class was over I had to go buy another pack. While I was at Office Depot I perused laptops for… Read More #579 – May You Live In Interesting Times
Meatspace is a term that my wife and I use for interacting with friends in the real world, as opposed to online interactions. When we lived in Illinois, most of our socialization was through the computer with people in all reaches of the globe, but now that we’ve moved to Austin we have a lot… Read More Out in Meatspace
My wife went back to work today. This is the first day in a week that I haven’t spent at least a good portion of the day with her, half the day on Thursday because of the strep diagnosis, and Friday through Tuesday because of already planned vacation time. I have to admit that I’d… Read More Back to Business As Usual

So the day’s… Read More Movie Day
This post contains no spoilers for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. Had a fairly productive day today, and even went to the store with my wife to pick up a couple things, when she turns to me and starts going through the budget and what surplus we have. We were in the alcoholic beverages… Read More A Night at the Movies
I haven’t written in almost a week because I’m not sure what to write about. My lethargy has finally reached the breaking point. I had an appointment with my psych med manager that I’ve now had to postpone twice because I was just too tired to get behind the wheel. I’ve called my general practitioner’s… Read More Dichotomy
Usually this blog deals with my dealings with mental illness, but today it’s going to take a small thematic break to go to the movies. First off, let me stress that, while this post deals with Star Wars, there are not any real spoilers in here, unless you’ve never watched any of the seven movies.… Read More The Third Option
Remember, remember! The fifth of November, The Gunpowder treason and plot; I know of no reason Why the Gunpowder treason Should ever be forgot!
