Thanksgiving Orphans and Thinking Differently from Everyone – Thoughts from November 19 to 28, 2023
November 19, 2023 I found out from Patti that we might be orphans on Thanksgiving. Hopefully, it will keep me from over stuffing myself like I normally do. Except for my last two days off, I’m down in my weight. Holidays have become mainly about eating and drinking more than you normally would. All the…

Sweating Nerd Blog – Thoughts from August 14 and 16, 2023
August 14, 2023 Sometimes I start my Thoughts paper with nothing to say. I put in the date and save it as a document, but I have no idea what I’m going to talk about. There are some things I could talk about, but I don’t want to talk about them. I had an idea…

No Memory for Names – Thoughts from November 15 and 16, 2022
November 15, 2022 I was listening to an episode of Sarah Silverman’s podcast with Patti and someone left a voicemail asking about a message she got from her child’s school nurse. The message informed her that her child’s weight was a health concern. The mom was super offended by the message and wanted to know…

Sugary Things – Thoughts from April 16 to 20, 2022
April 16, 2022 I noticed a truck on the freeway coming into work today that was shoving himself into traffic from the on-ramp. He had a blacked-out version of the American flag in his back window and a baseball hat on. The big truck, hat, flag, and bad driving were all signs of reality denial.…

Wearing Masks – Thoughts from April 13 and 15, 2022
April 13, 2022 I listened to this book that was a scientific look at sex. I told Patti some of the interesting and weird stuff from it, but I didn’t tell her about any of the female stuff. It seems to be a sensitive topic for her. It’s been growing in sensitivity for years. I…

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…

Thoughts from September 3, 1994
Prepare yourself! Brian is not feeling the heights of pleasure or even comfort today. Those who read forth should be convinced of their own contentment and emotional well-being. Life is a big soup and I’m one of the noodles. There is a job opening up at work for a Recreation Assistant. The job pays between…

November 3, 1992 – Journal Assignment 1
This journal entry comes from a Psychology 115 class I had in college. I mixed it in with my Thoughts papers because it represents my only written thoughts from 1992. Each week, we were asked to write about specific aspects of our lives. For that reason, this is probably my most organized series of thoughts.…

September 10, 1997 – Thoughts from Life 8
When I started this paper, I recorded over the last one. I usually have a copy in two different places, but, of course, the time I don’t, this happens. I am not saying I go around expecting bad things to happen. I don’t hate life before it kicks me in the rear. I like to…

September 2, 1997 – Thoughts from Life 5
Simple doesn’t exist in anything if you examine it long enough, but complex doesn’t have to exist with everything (Logic police alert! Drop the bad sentence and step away from the building!). If you take everything generally and don’t get caught up in too many specifics, life can be more than just bearable. It can…
