Yet And Still

Still feeling right down crappy, but I am making improvements. We'll take what we get I guess. In the mean time, I've written about ten pages of notes with my little 'side trips' the story can or should take to add depth to the story and page count to the book. This one may 'perk' until fall before... Sign in to see full entry.

Dream A Little Dream Of Me w/ a Hat Tip to Mama Cass Elliot

Felling better, but still running a fever of 100.8. Looks like I just ride this out for another day. It's nothing serious, just annoying. I thank you for the well wishes. I tried to finish up formatting the images in the e-book version of "Johnny Robot" but my attention span is just too short.... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm Sick!

I'm not sure where it came from, but last night about 6PM, all of a sudden, I'm running a fever of 103+ and shaking uncontrollably. It's down to a flat 100 right now, but I'm very uncomfortable with a monster headache. I'm gonna take some NyQuil Severe and zone out for the rest of the day. Good... Sign in to see full entry.

Happy Second Birthday To Me!

Yesterday was a long day, but yesterday is gone. I'm waiting for test results of all the testing now. I'm not the type to worry and fret about things I can't control, so I'll be writing most of the day and the weekend. Today is kind of a holiday for me as from here on out, it is my second birthday.... Sign in to see full entry.

Just Looking At What Can Not Be Seen

I've got to be on the road most of the day. One of my brake lines has given way to "Michigan Cancer," or in the normal vernacular, it has rusted out and I ahve to have it replaced. I then have to be at the hospital at 1:00 PM for a CT scan of an abdominal hernia that is going to need surgery. If you... Sign in to see full entry.

Input Please!?!?

I've been working on getting the graphics and such for "Johnny Robot" to properly align in "Kindle" format, which means resizing everything. I read mine horizontally, but I know people who read it vertically. I'm almost done, but I've generated quite the little tension headache. I need some input.... Sign in to see full entry.

Farewell Johnny Robot - You Were Good For Me

Well. I've finished "Johnny Robot." I'm still working on the graphics and getting it by the toughest editor I've ever had... Johnny "Robot." As he read the final paragraphs of the story that he inspired and has helped co-write, I shed some tears as his young voice began to show he understood the... Sign in to see full entry.

A History Lesson

Today is the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 1 fire that killed Gus Grissom, the first man to walk in space, Ed White, and local man, Grand Rapid's Roger B Chaffee. They were doing some pre-flight testing when an electrical fire broke out and they were unable to get out and all three died. Their... Sign in to see full entry.

Do You Know How To Get To Oz?

First thing, I want to thank everyone who offered well wishes and prayers. It is highly appreciated. Naturally, they can't just 'do' the surgery, I have to get several MRI's and X-rays. This hernia is about two inches above my umbilicus (that's the belly button for the non-medical among us) and is... Sign in to see full entry.
