The Virtue of Uselessness
It has been another good day. I have not been getting as much sleep as I like. But I have remained as productive as a usually am. I have been shifting back and forth between artificial D&D and the works of Chuang Tzu. He is among the wisest philosophers that have ever lived. He spent…

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…

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…

I’m sick.
The working theory is that Stephanie and I picked up a stomach flu. I feel like I’ve been hit by a train. I slept on and off for nearly twenty hours. It has not been an awesome day.

New Year Message 25
If you are reading this you are part of a very elite, weird, and awesome group. I have been here for nearly two years and have no plans of leaving. I hope I provide a little inspiration each day to be creative, silly, and perhaps even holy. I’m still looking for sanctification and solace. As…

Space Between The Holidays
Christmas is over and a new year is fast upon me. Some people take time to reflect. I am doing that. Some people plan how a different year is going to make them a different person. I am not doing that. I’m pretty content. I’d like a better way to sell my art. I’d like…

On the floor
Our youngest son is sitting on the kitchen floor and eating his chicken nuggets. This is odd behavior even for him. He usually sits at the table or on the couch. Stephanie asked him why he was sitting on the floor but he didn’t answer her. I asked him if he was a goof. He…
