Fine-Tuning the Meat Suit

January 26, 2011

Ok, ok, ok.  I know it’s been way too long.  Sheesh.  I’ve been busy. Life is good, dear reader.  Busy, but very very good. So here’s the skinny for the past couple of weeks or so: I’ve been hiking (duh).  On the weekends.  Both days.  Lots of miles, lots of mountains.  Fifteen mountains and about [...]

The Incredible Distance Between Sleeping and Waking

October 28, 2010

“It’s okay,” she says.  ”It’s okay.  You were just dreaming.” That’s how it starts.  Every time. Then she tells me, “You were screaming.” I don’t remember screaming.  But maybe I was.  Maybe that journey between sleep and waking is so much that I can’t help but scream.  Maybe it’s just that long.  I look up. [...]

Actionable Feelings and Weird Dreams

October 12, 2010

So I’ve been re-reading Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged for the last couple of weeks.  I’ve been reading John Galt’s speech to the world for the past few days – it’s like forever long, just like I remember it.  I think the book would be much better if it were maybe 20% as long as it [...]

I don’t really know that I have all that much to say.  I mean, I have plenty to say, but not anything in particular that I’d like to talk about right now.  All weekend long I’ve had threads run through my head that would make nice blog posts:  interesting things I could tease out into [...]

Effin Weird-Ass Dreams

March 25, 2010

Well, since I really haven’t gotten shite done tonight, I may as well blog again about something a bit more interesting: Have you been having strange dreams of late, dear reader?  Or maybe just a bit of trouble sleeping? I have.  And I’ve spoken to a handful of people in the past few days who’ve [...]

Dreams of Love, Dreams of Sex

March 9, 2010

My dreams were tortured again last night, dear reader.  Something’s coming.  Something’s going to happen or change, but I can’t tell what.  I dreamt of love and sex last night.  Separately.  I dreamt again of pursuit, as well.  And of inevitability.  I have no idea how to interpret these dreams. Normally, my dreams fall into [...]

Haunted Dreams

March 6, 2010

My dreams have been haunted of late, dear reader.  As I’m sure I’ve mentioned in the past, I don’t dream so much in colors and shapes and things said as I do in feelings, emotions and events.  I suppose the overriding feeling that has pervaded my dreams in the past week or so has been [...]

Diana, Where Are You?

November 10, 2009

Ok, kiddies: I don’t really know how much I have for you tonight.  I had some really effin weird dreams again last night (which is to say Monday night), but I’m not sure I remember them all that well.  I took Bob Marley out of this evening’s rotation, so I’m about as un-not-focused as I [...]

Pride and Fear

October 5, 2009

When I think about my character defects, I generally try to relate them back to the seven deadly sins.  This keeps me from coming up with more character defects than I can possibly work on.  For example:  I’m constantly late for work.  Being late in and of itself is not a defect of character – [...]
