Messing With An AI (Artificial Intelligence) Bot

I have been working on my *Concept paper* about writing a story about "The Singularity." In case you haven't heard of the topic, Singularity is a time in history when humans and computers become tied to one another. I have struggled with this story for at least eighteen months. Today, I solved my... Sign in to see full entry.

A Bit a of an Explanation

It's going to be a beautiful day in the neighborhood, and the weekend will be much colder again. That's getting to be a routine I hope to see broken soon. Let me explain what happened yesterday without getting into a lot of details. Lisa has been having some odd abdominal pain on and off for the... Sign in to see full entry.

Back

We just got back from Valdosta, and seeing a doctor there. Lots of blood work and ultrasounds stuff done, but we won't know anything definite for several days. It's been a long day! Take care. V&L Sign in to see full entry.

I think I failed to mention somewhere along the line that we need to go to Valdosta, Georgia, this morning to see a specialist. I will let you know more if anything comes of it. This isn't for me, but for my wife. She's been having abdominal pain for several months that requires a special test that... Sign in to see full entry.

Sorry to be so late with everything. It's Valentine's Day, and I took Lisa out of a late breakfast/early lunch date, and then we drove around, looking at the lakes in the area. The girl gets sweeter by the day. It's finally warming up AGAIN. This business of nice weekdays and frozen weekends is... Sign in to see full entry.

A Bit of A Rant - Pay Me No Mind

We have a lot to do this week, but I'm not sure it will begin to happen today. It was a long weekend with nothing but cold rain, wind, and unannounced company. I'm not a big fan of any of those things. It would never occur to me to travel 1400 miles and then just pop in on someone, but I'm not... Sign in to see full entry.

A Free Vella Chapter

I just finished this and posted it to the Vella platform, but it will be late tonight before it is available. This is from my "How I Keep Smiling in A World That Isn't" Vella. This would normally *cost you ten credits (roughly 1.8 cents), but I wanted you to see what I am doing. If you get to the... Sign in to see full entry.

We slept in until almost 9:30 this morning. I couldn't believe it myself. Lisa wanted to go out for breakfast, so we went to a little eatery we have come to enjoy visiting named "Smackin' Lips." It's a very nice diner, and the food is excellent. I got new episodes in my dystopian Vella novel and in... Sign in to see full entry.

Free Vella Read

I managed to get a 1500-word Vella story done last night that I had been thinking about for a long time. I almost used this as a story told in the third person instead of the first person narrative in my "A Knock On The Door," and I might yet try it. I decided to use it in my "How I Keep Smiling In...

How was it Snoopy of *Peanuts* fame said it, " It was a dark and stormy night..." It started raining about 9 PM last night; other than a brief moment or two, it has been raining steadily since. We've had brief flickers of power loss but not a complete shutdown. Yet! Actually, this is a good start to... Sign in to see full entry.
