PROGRAMMING NOTE from the Author and Archivist


So obviously I just stopped blogging on this platform. I'll get back to it eventually. Or not. I'm taking a break from all social media. It seemed necessary for my mental health.

The last few years have been busy and … challenging:

- 2015 Happened.
- 2016 Let's call it The Lost Year. (Obviously words failed me.)
- 2017 about broke me. Literally. Mentally.
- 2018 was ridiculous, proving 2017 was just a warm up. (Good thing I was already broken so it couldn't hurt as much.#2018TrashCanFire I thought things were going okay, but maybe not?)

- 2019 was such a blur. I know there were highlights, but then stuff happened and carried into the next year...

- And then in March#2020 really took a turn. Who can even categorize 2020? Do we dare?


I kinda want a do-over of some of the last few years. But life doesn’t work that way.


So for now, I'm hunkering down. Regrouping. Trying to stay safe and sort some stuff out.


Stay safe everyone. Stay well.

Photo of the Day: Light at the End of the ...

February is almost over.
Deadlines are looming.

Maybe the end is in sight?

Or am I just being blinded by all the staring at computer and screens.

Current Mood: February, Hating Thereof

Photos of the Day: Twilight Train Time


Looking south as the northbound trains come through.
The light changes so quickly at this time of year.

Photos of the Day: Negative Impressions

Something about this path is just a little off...

 Sometimes looking at things when the "normal" is reversed helps reveal a new perspective.


Spotted on the back way into work.

Current Mood: February, Hating Thereof

Image from Zazzle.

Every year I think I'll make it through this month.
Every year, at some point, indubitably, I will force ably be reminded:

I HATE FEBRUARY.

Can't we just skip it?
