Taking a Media Fast
How do you know when it’s time to unplug? What do you do to make it happen? I haven’t “unplugged” in several years. When I start being completely unproductive I know it’s time for a media fast. The last time I did one I decided I would turn off all my social media and video…

Building an Internet Presence
How do you use social media? I entertain myself with social media. I get into arguments with strangers on social media. I also use it to promote my art and ideas. I am building a brand. If you put “markezuma” into a search engine it will lead you to the things I do online. Sadly…

I Missed Church
It occurs to me that I have not been to church all year. I helped give a blessing last week and I attended the Leadership Zoom Meeting. But I haven’t had Sacrament since December.

Rent Dream
Sometimes my dreams make sense. I just woke up from a dream where I was living with a rental contract in a hotel. I was either the only one with that kind of contract or the first one because my paper lease had a “#1” on it. The lease was for one person and had…

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…

Books
What have you been putting off doing? Why? First of all I have a pile of books that has been steadily growing much faster than I am moving through them. With Walgreens and Caregiving I find it hard to quiet my mind enough to just relax with a book. So instead I play video games…
