It's been a funny week around here. Fortunately, because it's only warmed up a little from our New Year's Day low of -19°F. When you're stuck inside because it's freezing cold and windy out, you want something to lift your spirits and the long, dark nights are not helping with that. I've been watching a … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up, or, Of Mice in Pants

Year in Review- 2017
What do you do with a year like 2017? Politically, it's been a dumpster fire almost from the start with enough insanity to make you laugh manically, sob hysterically, or in many cases, run for office because you can't stand what's going on. Looking at the mess politicians are making of the wider world almost … Continue reading Year in Review- 2017

In spite of the warm weather, Autumn is here! Most of the leaves have turned, and with that low, autumnal light, my drive to work is completely gorgeous! I live in an older part of town where the streets are lined with old, tall trees whose leaves have all turned yellow and gold with a … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up
Did You See Star Trek Last Night?
The end of every year of high school marked the annual awards banquets at my school. I don't know what the athletes did but the theater kids had fun, especially if you were in stage crew. While the actors had their, ‘best actor’ and ‘best actress’ honors, the stage crew had their own awards customized … Continue reading Did You See Star Trek Last Night?

Will someone please tell Summer that it's over? I'm really tired of these 90°F temperatures. 97° on the first day of Fall? Ugh. I've spent the last few days trying to keep cool and sleeping terribly thanks to the lingering hot weather. It's supposed to cool off on Monday, and I can't wait. I want … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up

Another week has come and gone, and once again I'm wondering where all that time went. I really need to get that temporal vortex out of my closet. I know some of the time was spent in finally watching Stranger Things on Netflix, and a little bit was spent watching Will. As for the rest of it? I dunno. … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up

I am pleased to report that I did not melt this week after dealing with heat indexes approaching 108°F (42°C), and actual temperatures that didn't drop below 90°F until after 10:00pm. I felt like I swam to work yesterday morning through 90% humidity. But thanks to several coffee shops and bookstores with their wonderful air … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up

This was an eventful week, in which I found myself renting cars in foreign countries, accidentally attending a big band concert, finally getting my hair cut after letting it grow for a year, and running in circles at work, all while trying not to melt while I read a new favorite and re-read an old … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up
Will
Shakespeare nerd that I am, I was intrigued by the idea of the new TNT show, Will, when I saw the first commercials for it a few weeks ago. My interest grew after I listened to the Folger Shakespeare Library's podcast, Shakespeare Unlimited's most recent episode, "Creating TNT's 'Will'", which features an interview with Will showrunners Craig … Continue reading Will
June Summary and July Preview
Is there anything more fun to do on a Friday night than spending forty-five minutes trying to figure out what has gone terribly wrong with your camera or editing software before figuring out that you merely changed a camera setting, and that's why things are wonky? So that was my Friday night. Part of it, … Continue reading June Summary and July Preview
