Intoxicated
I don’t have anything to go out of the house for tomorrow, so I am intoxicated tonight. This is becoming pretty typical for my Friday nights. Just mellow. Fed, fasting, and mellow. Stay Awesome, Stay Weird, or Stay Away.

Jesus’s Birthday
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints was founded on April 6th, 1830. While it is not canonical, some Mormons including myself believe this happened on Jesus’s Birthday.

Daily Hymns
On Sundays the hymns for the ward are posted in the LDS Gospel Library app. I usually listen to those for my daily hymns. Today the hymns were Easter favorites.

My Valentine 26
Stephanie let me sleep today. I have only been awake for three hours and it’s already time to blog. Not much has happened yet. I didn’t get her a Valentine’s Day present. Perhaps I should do better.

The timer ran, the light turned on, and the plate spun, but the nuggets came out frozen. He tried several more times to heat them then ate them frozen. That motivated…

Liminal Time
The space between Christmas and New Years is a strange time in the USA. We have goals that we all put off for next year. We procrastinate our collective salvation. I am drifting. The winter is cold and I’ve got what I need. Stephanie is not quite as liminal as I am. Alex’s day program…

The Day After Christmas 25
It’s been a quiet day. Lots of sleeping and a little beer. The house is covered with boxes and wrapping paper. I assembled a chair for Stephanie. There’s a lot of debris from that in an ugly little pile. But both garbage bins were already full last night and now that they’ve been picked up…
