Me and the Cats
Everyone is out of the house. I’ve done all my daily habits. I’m just listening to one of the cats meow and scratch the wall in the kitchen. There’s a little ambient house noise in the background. A ceiling fan overhead and the furnace below. But I can take a moment to listen to my…

Hard Living Catches Up
I work hard, I play hard, and if you’ve been here for very long then you know I also sleep hard. I indulged yesterday and it hit hard today. I slept for 17 hours. Stephanie took care of things while I did. I’m awake and dressed now for good measure. I don’t think I have…

Infused
I am artificially infused with happiness. But it leaves me in a good mood most of the rest of the time. I’m on a cocktail of prescription and self medications without any alcohol or nicotine. I sometimes feel like I’m just going to drift away and God is going to call me home. That seems…

Piles of Crap
Don’t worry I’m not going to complain about literal crap today though gods know I have too much of that too. Today I am concerned about all the cardboard that had been piling up in the house. We get a ton of deliveries and so have more cardboard boxes than a reasonable family should face.…

Supreme Guidance
I am still slowly working my way through Chuang Tzu. Sometimes I am truly moved by the idea of The Tao. Sometimes I think that it is analogous to the Holy Spirit. But in that thought experiment only the Tao and the Holy Spirit exist. It seems at times like this that there is guidance…

Technically the Weekend
Stephanie and I were discussing finances. Well I was discussing them and she was telling me she didn’t have the spoons to do it. She said she didn’t even know what day it was. That’s fair because all our days seem to blend together sometimes. But our middle child’s day program aide said “Have a…
