It gives something to the world. #2 Sharing my art also improves my quality of life and hopefully the quality of the…

Drowning in Debt
I know it’s a bad idea to share sensitive financial information online, so I won’t go into the details here. We need about half a million dollars after taxes and expenses to get out of debt. I’d prefer to do it from home. It would be even better if I could make the money in…

Not Enough Caffeine in the World
It’s 11:20am and I still haven’t slept. I’ve had several big cups of coffee but mostly the caffeine is just making me shaky right now. Don’t get me wrong I’m still not particularly tired even though I’ve been awake for a little over 24 hours, it’s just that I’m moving into spacier territory. I obviously…

Singing the Blues
What was the last thing you searched for online? Why were you looking for it? A few minutes ago I asked ChatGPT to write a blues song for me. This is the result.

The Morning After
Yesterday was a good day. I took my new insurance card to the clinic, I had a good hamburger with my wife for lunch, I got my prescription medication, I cleaned house, I played with the cat (a lot), I made some art (well you know that), I played my games and socialized on my…

Person 23 08 29

Way Too Much TV
What TV shows did you watch as a kid? It would be impossible to name all the shows I regularly attached myself to as a child. Some highlights are: Battlestar Galactica (I even convinced my parents to buy me a miniature Viper), Mork and Mindy (early Robin Williams is amazing), Soap (every show had a…

Last Call
The final hour of pharmacy tonight was rough. We had a steady stream of people until about five minutes before we closed and one drive up after the lights went out. But we survived and I made it to the parking lot before my wife came to get me. We all went home I took…

It Depends
Favorite time of day… If I don’t have pharmacy it’s about two in the afternoon because that’s when I get to decide if I’m going to do anything other than keeping my sons alive. If I do have pharmacy then it’s about 9 at night which is when I can break my fast.

16 October 1989
It’s a little after 1:00am and I can’t sleep. It’s my fault really because I drank a Barqs rootbeer at 5:00 in the afternoon. So what damn caffeinated thoughts are racing through my head? Of course it would have to be the first time I was tormented by prophecy. It was the summer of 1982.…
