It’s been a long week for me. I’ve been at my new job for a month now. I don’t want to jinx it but so far it’s been alright. I’ve slept throughout the night and deep enough to have some pretty intense dreams. I’m going to be making them into flash fiction soon. Another thing…
I suppose this is more of an entry discussing co-workers. I’ve had my share of good and bad ones. The good that became friends over time. The bad I wished would quit so I wouldn’t have to deal with that person anymore. Both have happened to me although not before I was able to work…
My credit score has ranged all the way from the low to mid-700s to high 700s to low 800s. There are many reasons to have a good credit score like lower interest rates and better chances of easing an employer into hiring you because you don’t have high debt. The highest score a person can…
Snow doesn’t fall in the summertime as rain rarely falls in the wintertime when there is snow on the ground. The trees are heavy with the whiteness. The powder turns yellow over time from dogs and a black from car exhaust. By springtime, I wish it didn’t snow at all. The pristine image of fresh…
As one of my celebrations for finding a job that is more suitable for my personality and tastes, I ended up buying more stamps from the U.S. Postal Service. I value the Postal Service more than I dislike it although there have been a few times where I question the people they hire. One time…
I’ve worn a lot of shoes over the years. Some were used way past their prime. Others were hardly used and gave them to someone who might want them. A few made my feet hurt, but I forced them to work with my feet. Over time they stretched out and they were comfortable. The same…
How funny I wrote this a while back. It was in 2021. I was going to include it into a short story or novella of some kind. I guess for now it will hang out as flash fiction. Enjoy. This whole thing started with the never-ending mint in his mouth and the theme song to…
Without going into too much detail, I’m on the radar for the next opportunity, also called a job, because I’ve been laid off. I never thought I would be looking for another job this year, but here I am doing just that. I know a part of me belongs to a handful of other people…
It’s been half a month since I posted anything. It was freeing, beneficial, and helpful in many ways. Even though I had a yearning to get back to blogging, I had to step away for several reasons. One, I had family visiting for five days and spent time with my family versus burying my eyes…
I’m not sure why I titled this blog entry this way. Probably because I couldn’t come up with anything snappy. I thought about Raul Julia, the actor, whom I admire. I also thought about how we are dealt a life often that we don’t want as we get older. I never thought I’d be experiencing…
I ditched my second novel idea (although I’m coming back to it eventually) and working on another novel idea that is radically different from my first novel. In the meantime, here is a flash fiction story not written by me but well worth the short read. ************************************************************************************************************** C: \> System Boot C: \> System Check…
