Stuff I think about

It’s been far too long since I took a proper vacation. I won’t get into all (any) of the details as to “why”, but … suffice it to say, it’s been over a decade. That’s (been) changing this year, due…

About a week ago, I proverbially kicked myself in the butt and decided I needed to get back to doing some writing. I’ve definitely wanted to develop more Pub Tales (it goes with the site, right?). Additionally, I’ve had an…
Somehow, this time of year always seems to sneak up on me. I wasn’t personally involved with any of th events of that day in 2001. My mother used to work in NYC, but had retired. I hadn’t worked in…
