I have not posted in months. I could make excuses, e.g., pandemic, work, blah, blah, but excuses are like . . . . It’s good to be back! Seasonal allergies kicked my ass this week. I have had a dull-to-moderate […]
On Friday, February 19, I turned 42 years old and have reflected upon the year since my 41st birthday. I have concluded that the last year was nothing short of a fucking dumpster fire. Nevertheless, I am hopelessly hopeful that […]
The morning of Wednesday, January 13, 2021, was glorious because, for the first time in more than sixteen years, I [kind of] ran! As I have previously mentioned, on May 30, 2005, I suffered a traumatic brain injury after I […]
