The House Cats
Which animal would you compare yourself to and why? I find it remarkable how much I identify with our house cats. They are furry little apex predators who also happen to be adorable. I’m probably never. But they are also smart, independent, and quirky. I aspire to be those things. As black cats who are…

Shopping for Anything
Where would you go on a shopping spree? If I could shop for anything and had enough money to pay for it all I would shop for local real estate. Maybe some empty land to build some affordable housing too. But I’m already in debt and not a good economic risk so my dreams of…

Trouble with Women
How has a failure, or apparent failure, set you up for later success? The primary large failure that I have endured is the fear of women that kept me out of relationships and in a few cases sabotaged the relationships I did manage to start. When I was young no one expected me to be…

Letters and Calls

Favorite Types Of People
Who are your favorite people to be around? I don’t like naming names on this blog. I want to be famous but most of my family and friends do not. My wife is one of my favorite people. My parents are amazing. I have a few close friends that come and visit me. In general…

Dancing Shoes
Tell us about your favorite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken you. Thirty years ago I got a slightly used pair of black dress shoes from a thrift store here in town. They looked good and were incredibly comfortable. I didn’t actually do a lot of dancing in them but for several years I…

Three Cups of Coffee
For the past 24 hours my life has been even more of a rollercoaster than it usually is. Health issues, scammers, babies, poop, nakedness, and THC. I am currently functioning on God, Coffee, and Rock n Roll. Stay Awesome my Fellow Travellers.
