    What are you most proud of in your life? My oldest son was born out of wedlock. I met my wife when his mother and I were not speaking. I never married her. But I still wanted my son to have a father. I moved back to Janesville to be close to him. It’s also…

  • Too Much Facebook

    I am continuing to think about my recent return to beer. I have had it suggested by several people that I should fight the addiction. I have never considered myself an alcoholic. I remember in the highschool DARE program being given two examples of alcohol users. One was a man that sat in the corner…

  • People’s Worth

    My personal calling and mission includes teaching people their worth. I believe in individual worth: that no two people are in any real sense equal. That is countercultural. Most of the people I interact with know Thomas Jefferson’s ‘self evident’ truth that all men are created equal. There is usually a lot of pushback from…

  • A Little Bit Of Everything

    If you are just joining me there’s a little bit of everything on my blog. Family, friends, and fun. Intoxication and spiritual rants (sometimes both at once). Victory, defeat, malaise, and melancholy. Some hints at self care, and neurodiversity, and a whole lot of awesome. There will not however be any marathons, or skydiving, or…

  • Breaking the Word of Wisdom

    What have you been working on? I am at the moment working on finishing a second six pack of honey ale. I’ve had a little help from a buddy. He came over and we drank together into the wee hours of the night. That’s something I haven’t done in years because I was trying hard…

  • Judgemental

    What’s something most people don’t know about you? I am an intelligent and polite person. It covers a lot of my other sins. For instance I think the world is full of people that are stupid, rude, or both. I am one of the most judgmental people you will probably never meet. People don’t see…

  • Isolated but not Lonely

    I have a lot of friends but they do not visit me. In their defense I don’t visit them either. I don’t drive so it’s not particularly practical to walk all over the city considering the responsibilities I have at this point in my life. So I go to Walgreens to feel connected to the…

  • Stuck in Crisis: Excerpt 5

    I felt broken. I felt threatened. Things I’d buried stirred from within my own darkened depths. I tried to silence them with food. I ate too much too often and made myself sick. I tried to regain access to my diabetic medications, but my requests were denied. I thought my doctors knew something about my…
