REALITY?: Springlike Sunday
Nice day today. Did some work on Adobe Premiere, some laundry, then we took a ride out to Trader Joe’s. First time there–we’d heard so much about it. But while there were tempting goodies, the prices weren’t that great–although they … Continue reading Continue reading
REALITY?: Gaps and Generations
You can do the research, read all the reports and theories, scientific and historical, and analyze approaches made by sociologists and the philosophers and such. Economists too can have a glimmer of the truth. But if you were to ask … Continue reading Continue reading

REALITY?: Changes Blowin’ in the Wind
Unusual–garage philosophy in the middle of the day. But it is cold and oh-so windy that I am sure that you can hear it too. Though you may not feel it as I do; it blows right through me. Once … Continue reading Continue reading

WRITING & REALITY?: Emotion
I am so full of repressed anger that I can’t even sputter for fear of exploding. Within an hour of filling the birdfeeders with the mid-range priced seed, I see four squirrels dumping out the feeders to get the choice … Continue reading Continue reading

REALITY?: Putting Fun on Hold
Whatever fun I’ve been able to rumble up lately, that is. Finishing up the income taxes to be ready to meet with my accountant tomorrow morning. Some new stuff in this past year’s routine paperwork: the death of my father-in-law, … Continue reading Continue reading

WRITING & REALITY?: Breaking Out
I’ve mentioned this before; learning from watching some of the reality shows–the ones that do have some measure of reality still left. I’ve been watching Grease – You’re the One That I Want for the past few weeks, and like … Continue reading Continue reading

REALITY?: A Life Defined
Been staying away from reality lately in posting, it’s not pretty. And the backyard inspirations are dark. Stream of consciousness here, I suppose: need a project to focus upon to exclude all else. Taking classes kept me focused. Writing a … Continue reading Continue reading

REALITY & WRITING: Human Nature
The longer I live, the more I believe that man is inherently evil and must be taught to overcome his own nature to live among others of his kind. Babies will slap out at what annoys them, but must be … Continue reading Continue reading
NEW MEDIA, REALITY, LITERATURE, WRITING: Contemplation
Pondering: Purpose, beyond being fruitful and multiplying. Man’s place in living. Wherein lie my talents, skills? Does anyone recognize them? Do they exist beyond my mind? Layered space, separated only by time. God. Difficult to overcome learned faith, yet faith … Continue reading Continue reading

TECHNOLOGY, WRITING & REALITY?: Gone
I’m sitting here contemplating the word "gone." Gone: absent, irrecoverable, used up, pregnant, dead, uneasy, infatuated, exhilarated. Concentrating on absent, irrecoverable, and dead, absent doesn’t quite fit entirely; absent can reverse into present, so that irrecoverable isn’t then a suitable … Continue reading Continue reading

TECHNOLOGY & REALITY?: Cold
Chopped my way into my barn/shop late yesterday afternoon. So I could sit in here and freeze today. But one thing it gives me opportunity to try (the silver lining?): Freezing a hard drive to recover lost information. I have … Continue reading Continue reading

REALITY?: Ruled by the Weather
I am, very much so. Mood swings not with the moon, but with the sun and clouds and wind and rain. Sunshine heats the heart up. Grey days, I’m nearly gone. But for real this time–Can’t unfreeze my shop door … Continue reading Continue reading

REALITY?: Gorgonzola
