Night Moves... I woke last night to the sound of thunder

First, a musical interlude... with the pull quote being the most important. I'll explain in a moment. Night Moves. One of my favorite songs is from the "Motor City Mad Man, Bob Seger." I woke last night to the sound of thunder How far off I sat and wondered? Started hummin' a song from 1962 Ain't it... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm probably going to keep this short. I slept less than wonderful last night, and once I woke up around 6:45 this morning, there was no going back to sleep. Maybe it's the pressure system that's working its way north, or perhaps it's just 'one of those days.' If the forecast is correct, it's... Sign in to see full entry.

I Write, I Said - A Small Rant

Neil Diamond had a big hit with a song titled " I Am, I Said." Me? I write. If you note the times I made my entries into their various spots, you'll see I got called away by an unannounced visitor who apparently thought breakfast was at our place today. I have a handmade sign on our porch that says... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. I'm up 'early' for me, but I'm not sure why. I slept fairly decently, only having to let the dogs out once. It was sprinkling just enough to make them want to get out, do their thing, and come back inside... which was just fine with me. It's about 75 right now, heading up to around 92....

I woke up to the steady sound of rain on our metal roof at about 7 am. As I let the dogs out, the huge puddle at the bottom of the steps assured me it had been raining most of the night. A glance at the radar on the Weather Channel indicates that it will likely continue to rain until at least early... Sign in to see full entry.

For A Monday, Things Look Good & What Makes a Fish Blush?

Good morning. The day is off to a decent start, with a few stray showers running to our north around noon—nothing to worry about here. As soon as I finish this post, I'll be heading outside to enjoy the sun with my wife. We like to sit for 30-45 minutes before the day gets ahead of us, and kick... Sign in to see full entry.

It's a nice Sunday morning/early afternoon. It seems some of my acquaintances have realized that I get up earlier than I let on, and they think it's nice to call me. When I explain that, while yes, I am awake early, I don't want or need to talk to anyone. My morning hours are just that... MY morning... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. I was about 35 seconds from having a new post in when we lost power. Life has been itching to do things in its own time. I've been working on a series show, and have gotten to meet some of the things At the last minute, Lisa talked me into going out dancing last night.. We didn't stay... Sign in to see full entry.

One of the dogs woke me up a bit after 4 am to go outside. As I'm standing there, waiting for the dogs to do their thing. As I have done countless times in my life, I looked up at the night sky. After several days of heavy overcast skies, I wasn't expecting the wonders I saw. Thousands of stars said... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. It appears that this day will bring more rain than sunshine, with a brief glimpse of the sun between storm clouds, not that that's a bad thing. While not tinder dry, it was getting rather arid here. We may have to take our umbrellas out when we sit outside, but that's not a bother.... Sign in to see full entry.
