Once again, it has been a hot, hot minute. Many things have occurred, but I’m going to try to keep this post brief just so that I can teach myself that maybe the journal doesn’t have to be so daunting. It doesn’t have to be massive paragraphs. It can just be a few words about…
So it’s kind of been a hot minute since the last update, once again. To be fair, spring is always a busy, busy time of year, full of deadlines and paperwork and things like taxes, and it tends to eat away at my attention span and raise my cortisol levels and generally make most tasks…
Okay, so coming back here quickly just to add that I may have been completely wildly wrong about Dandadan when I talked it up as some goofy, slapstick masterpiece of humour. Don’t get me wrong. It is. But that was also one hell of a sucker punch episode that we just watched tonight and I…
I began today thinking: “You find yourself at the bottom of a steep cliff in the Peter Griffin death pose. How do you proceed?” Basically I’ve been several flavours of ill over the last few days, from vertigo to migraines to sinus congestion to a misadventure with trying to eat healthy after two weeks of…

Every winter, I either get kept home for a day or two by snow or by illness, and this year it was a head cold that stealthed in looking like allergies and then took me down while I was confused. It was a weird one because my symptoms never got that bad. On Sunday I…
Little victories:
It’s been chilly this week. I’m glad there’s no rain in the forecast until the weekend because that would be snow. I don’t want snow. I kind of oddly miss it sometimes, in that whole “I will probably never again see REAL snow, like deep winter snow” foolish nostalgia kind of way, but ultimately… I…
This year has felt… very haphazard so far. Work is still eating my mental capacity, juggling all of my creative endeavours remains possible (in theory) and yet I haven’t managed the knack of it, yet.
