Breathe

This past week was hellish. I could blame on it work.  Or the insomnia.  Or perhaps the low grade fever I was running part of the week.  And none of that shit helped… But none of that was the problem either.  The problem exists in my head.  That isn’t to say that the problem isn’t [...]

Problems big and small…

I have, in the last few posts, talked about big problems.  What am I going to do now?  Who am I?  This kind of thing. Rest assured I have smaller problems too.  For example: Wednesday I came home from work, and early at that.  After a string of days where I didn’t get in my [...]

I think I’m going about this all wrong…

It occurs to me that problem is me. I look around and no one else seems to be bothered.  It stands to reason that the problem is me. Maybe I try too hard.  Maybe my goals are unrealistic. Maybe my perception of myself is not in line with reality. I shouldn’t be working this hard.  [...]

The dumbest day of the year

I spent my Birthday at work for 12 hours. Yeah, I know how to party. I doesn’t really matter. I hate my Birthday. It’s not the getting older, I don’t mind that. I’ve spent most of life wishing that I was old enough to be able to do this or that. It’s just something about [...]

First Post of the Year

Today is the 25th of January and I’m just now getting around to the first post of the year. I suck. It’s January. Winter. I hate it. Short Gray days. Cold that doesn’t let up. And maybe it’s all in my head, but it seems colder than usual this year. It’s like a stain that [...]

Another one bites the dust…

Another year is gone.  Blah Blah Blah. I find it hard to get into all of this New Year stuff.  It appears to be some bizarre combination of nostalgia and optimism for the future. Nothing has change significantly since last week.  A New Year, perhaps, but mostly just another day. But I guess I can’t [...]

Sore and tired…

I have returned from my backpacking trip.  I’m tired and sore, but overall it was a good trip.  And I have now walked every step of the Appalachian Trail in Pennsylvania.  That’s about 230 miles.  In all, I’ve walked just about 600 contiguous miles on the trail from the PA-NJ line on the north side [...]

Something about Sundays

I had this notion that I would get much done today.  Reality, as usual, conspired against me. Instead of getting up bright and early and having some coffee, I slept in and then dragged my feet doing nothing for most of the morning.  I didn’t even have my first cup of coffee until past ten [...]

It reminds me of that episode of M*A*S*H…

My day started as most of them do… with Mrs. Jeckles threatening me. “Get up now.  And if you want me to iron your clothes, give them to me before I’m done ironing.” Sometimes it takes a threat (or many) to get me out of bed.  I stumbled to the closet and tossed a shirt [...]

It’s not that I don’t want to

Me: I really need a new job… Mango: you’ve been telling me that for over 4 years now. I’ve had three jobs since then, not sure what you’re waiting for. He’s got a point.  I mean he was probably just trying to be shitty, but there is a valid point there. There are two real [...]
