365: Day 106 – Can’t wait to be all settled in.
If I’m being honest, thinking of what to write on here has felt like a chore these last few days because almost all of my time goes to work and coordinating things for the house. All of it will pay off in the end, but I am looking forward to finally being settled in and… — read more

365: Day 105 – Not good at writing prompts
I wasn’t sure what to write tonight, so I thought I would get a random writing prompt and see what I could come up with. It turns out that I sat here for half an hour writing a bunch of garbage that I couldn’t bring myself to click the publish button for. So instead I… — read more

365: Day 104 – Cleaning my inbox
I spent my day running errands and when I finally got a free moment I decided to organize my work email inboxes and forgot to dedicate time here to write. Once we’re finally moved in, I really need to make some time early in the day to make some good posts on here. — read more

365: Day 103 – Keeping it simple.
We bought him a nice comfy bed that we ended up returning because he never used it, but he ends up loving this box that was destined for the garbage. I’m not sure what he finds appealing about the hobo look, but as long as it makes him happy. 🤣 — read more

365: Day 102 – Feeling Handy
The house remodeling is in full swing and I’ve been doing some things here and there to get things ready. Today I added a gadget to our garage door opener to allow it to be opened and closed remotely through my phone and so Amazon can also open the garage to leave packages inside the… — read more

365: Day 101 – Jonathan Gold’s 101 List
I used to look forward to Jonathan Gold publishing his new list every year of the 101 best restaurants in Los Angeles. He was the only food critic to have ever recieved the Pulitzer Prize. It was something quite extraordinary to see taco trucks and obscure restaurants in strip malls compete alongside fancy restaurants. He… — read more

365: Day 100 – Made it to 100
I honestly doubted myself at the beginning of this of being able to cross into triple digits, but I’ve made it. I think there was just a post or two that I missed and later made up or noted. My longest streak for doing anything has been 131 days and that was back when I… — read more

365: Day 99 – Not ghosts after all…
It turns out the restaurant scene I was looking at last night was not something that happened by chance or in error. Last night, there were testing the restaurant music, lights, and general set-up in preparation for today’s opening. Restaurants are still not permitted to have diners indoors in Los Angeles, so they set up… — read more

365: Day 98 – Ghosts of Dining Past
This the view from one of the bedroom window and tonight I was attracted to the window by the sound of some soft jazz music. Several months ago, the sound of Jazz was a nightly event, but it has been many months since this outdoor area went dark. So it was a little haunting to… — read more

365: Day 97 – I miss live performances
I was watching one of those boring public television channels today and they were talking about live theater, but of course my mind went to classical music and operas. I miss these live performances very much. Apart from being beautiful, amazing, life-changing, awesome, incredible…<continue with hyperboles and superlatives here>, it is truly magical when you… — read more
