I finally got my new keyboard! Later on tonight, we will have a ceremonial burning of the cheap one I had to use for two days. I will buy another backup model next paycheck. Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. As I was posting here yesterday, my keyboard decided to call it quits, so I had to dig one out of my backup pile... and it is nowhere near the quality of the old one. It's been a great tool since I got it back in late 2020. I found another just like it for $34 delivered. There are many... Sign in to see full entry.

Good afternoon. I was here earlier and posted some material, and just as I was about to start writing something here, my very expensive keyboard decided it was game over. I go through two to three keyboards every year, so that isn't a new thing, but this one never gave me a problem... it just... Sign in to see full entry.

Good Sunday morning. It's been a while since I've sat down and had to think about what to say. We had "unexpected company" who showed up about 9 pm last night. I'm not sure if they had stopped by to catch us eating a late dinner, but it was nearly 11 at night before I told them we had to call it a... Sign in to see full entry.

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.
