searching the silver woods for ruins, or myself.
So, as I was driving home after a long walk in the woods the other evening, the full Hunter's moon was lighting up the sky, and creating amazing silver shadows over the world. The clouds would glow bright blue/silver as they passed in front of it, softening the harshness of the silver moon-shadows. I of course had the windows down, so the chill ( Read more... ) -
On the price of being Epic.
I am sorry for the length and link-rich environment of this post, but I am, as usual... living my life at “faster than the speed of Blog!” That means I am often out doing something, and as such, do not often have the time to sit down and write about what I am doing ( Read more... ) -
Fire and Water, or What I consider a vacation.
Most people seem to think a vacation is supposed to be relaxing, restful, and rejuvenating. I never have understood what people find so nice about laying around on a beach, increasing their chance of contracting skin cancer, because they can't go swimming in the poisonous caustic liquid due to the jellyfish, or sharks, or red tide... and getting ( Read more... ) -

Does the Tardis have a bathroom?
That is what I found myself wondering the other day as I pulled into my driveway after a day of work. And the reason I was wondering this, is because sitting on my front lawn as I arrived, were several large pallets containing several even larger boxes. Between the pallets and the boxes, they took up my entire front yard! I'll admit, it is a ( Read more... ) -
A weekend of energetic nostalgia...
So, the other weekend was completely exhausting, and yet completely awesome as well! On Friday night I went pretty much directly from work, to go with the Goth-daughter and family and friends to see her younger sister's final dance recital. The Goth-daughter's younger sister is 11, loves dance, and is really very good at it ( Read more... ) -
One, Two, many Mad Skilz!
I apologize for the huge amount of time it has been since I posted anything here. For that I am very sorry, and my only excuse is really… I have been to busy living life to actually sit down and write about it!
So, since this post is a bit of a lengthy one, I have divided it into two sections, kind of like the Kill Bill movies.

Bored on Easter... can be a dangerous thing.
So, this Easter was a very mellow one for me. I did yard work, stacked wood and in general did all those things I don't have the time or energy to do on a weekday. No big dinner with family or friends, just me, Marti and the cats and dogs.
I did get a little inspired to take this photo...
