Almost Midnight on Saturday
I’m thinking back on the week I’ve had (not too bad) and the month I’ve had (decidedly bad). I’m still blessed. Last night it snowed and this afternoon someone took a snowblower to all the sidewalks on the block and most of my driveway. I had to shovel the ice that the plows pushed into…

Shopping and Snow Storms
Today I went grocery shopping with my mobility challenged buddy. We got home well before the snow emergency started. So Stephanie went grocery shopping too. I am just finishing a Digiorno pizza and sipping on a THC infused soda. It’s a good night to be stuck in the house. My youngest is sitting next to…

Phone Calls and Awesome
There’s a song by the group Spose called “I’m Awesome.” It’s all about the ways that the singer is not in fact awesome. One of the lines is that he’s got no voicemail because nobody calls. Sometimes that one in particular makes me sad when no one has called in a while. Today has not…

Where Are All The Gods
I’ve been listening to Holding Out For A Hero and feeling sorry for myself. I’m not a god, or streetwise, or a knight in shining armor, or fresh for the fight, or even larger than life. Sometimes I’d like to be the first one and sometimes the last one, but I’m getting old for combat.…

The Law is Dead
The idea that we are not saved by the law is a pretty typically Christian one. The Law of Moses is dead. The extension of that is that we are alive in Christ. But I don’t think that only in Christ can we be alive. I think that a Jew who follows the spirit of…

Following Directions
I learn best by doing things wrong and realizing that I have done them wrong later. Then I do something different and hopefully less wrong. I repeat the process by hopefully again continuing to be incrementally less wrong as I continue to go. This is time consuming and not always productive, but when I have…
