The place I call home is equivalent to what most of my friends would consider a weekend getaway. A New England home out in the country on a small piece of land, on a dirt road that is dusty, muddy and covered in foot deep snow depending on the season with slow Internet, a power [...]

Two years ago today, I wrote this blog post. It was an overall update where the weather had warmed up and I was blogging by the river. I miss that little gazebo by the river. It was so relaxing. In that post, I wrote this: Next week, I’m picking up a brand new, never driven [...]

With the holidays and moving, I sort of forgot this day had already come and gone. Not that it’s all that important to anyone. Time spent living in California Time spent living in New Hampshire I still find it odd that I’ve been in New Hampshire as long as I have. I’m happy here but [...]

Have you ever known where you want to be in 5 years? I am asking if you’ve known with complete conviction that you are most certain you will be in a certain place in 5 years. I felt this way at age 15 after returning from Macworld in San Francisco. I spent a lot of [...]

I don’t take murder lightly and don’t have a support system locally to give any support in this very emotional matter of taking the life of another creature. I have this sort of withdrawal feeling that follows murder. It’s the life of another but also a companion who I spent time daily for half a [...]
