    Jamaica – Thoughts from February 19, 2019

    I’m in Jamaica on vacation. Specifically, I’m up at 4:00 AM on the balcony of our room eating nuts because I didn’t have anything to eat before I went to bed. At home, I have beans and rice before I go to bed and that keeps me full all night. On vacation, we eat and…

    Dream Rules – Thoughts from August 24, 2018

    Future note: I listed the rules of my dreams in this Thoughts paper. Enjoy. Okay, maybe I should supply a little bit more of an explanation. These rules represent the things I know are possible while I’m dreaming. They are things I know I can do and things I know I can’t do. I have…

    Mom’s Final Days – Thoughts from November 20, 2013

    (Future note: This was written about my mom’s final days. Her last day alive was on November 20, 2013, so that is the date of this Thoughts paper. Despite the sad subject, there were amusing and surreal happenings going on.) My mom had multiple sclerosis for many years. Near the end of her life, she…

    Seeking Normal – Thoughts from January 16 and April 6, 2013

    January 16, 2013 Hello from the future! That statement is going to sound damn silly when I read back on this in 2020, when I’ll be 50. Now I said I’ll be 50! Can I just deny the future? Of course, I can, but when is the last time I listened to myself? I told…

    (Future note: The following are the words I wrote for the Three Girl Cats blog I started for Slash, Blaze, and Quest. They were born on June 3rd, 2009, and she died November 15, 2011. It was the final entry for the blog and my final words about Slash.) Unfortunately, this is the last posting…
