Dear Our Time, I have never used an online dating site. Naturally I was confused when you started sending me e-mails tooting a service I never signed up for. Please stop. I’m not fifty. I’ll date the “old fashioned” less sketchy way. You should know that I appreciate your cooperation…
As my disk space usage creeps up past the 2/3 mark, on my cpanel, I have come to realize something. Eventually, the blog will have to change formats again. I thought the unlimited part meant unlimited storage, but that’s not what the meter would have me believe. There would be…
I like the idea of it, if I could ever remember to do it. The thing is, most of my days are exactly the same. I wake up, I eat breakfast, I go to work, come home for lunch, go back to work, and then come home to eat supper. …
For letting me practice my listening skills. For hanging out with me even though I’m an introvert. For making me more fun and interesting. For not taking my short answers all the time and encouraging me to elaborate and become better at conversations. For dealing so well with this whole…

A sort of continuation of my list from earlier. This time instead of points, I’ve got questions. Questions to ponder. If they get rid of libraries… Yes, this will happen if things don’t change soon. It’s harsh terminology I know. People like the term “cuts” much better, but it’s essentially…
This is not a plea begging you to go visit your local library. I haven’t visited mine as much as I should because I’m in the middle of a long book right now. I’ve been reading a lot of headlines about more cuts being proposed for libraries who are already…
It’s a bit late but I want to briefly discuss Sunday night. Or Monday if you were in the Philippines. Seemingly everyone tuned into the Miss Universe pageant. There’s just one thing I don’t understand about the event. So, if the pageant is supposed to empower women, why do they…
