Never start a blog without giving it a title first. Shite. You are supposed to formulate your message before you write. I’ve gotten into rhyme lately. Not! It was just an accident. Now I need another, just because I did one before, make it opulent. Fuck it. I’m off on a tangent to my tangent.… Read More Tangential
I survived my latest travels only to find my flat a mess. Our latest tenants broke a lot of things, and with a short turnaround, the cleaners were unable to rectify things adequately. It’s frustrating, to say the least, but that isn’t what my haiku is about: Frustration. I’ll leave that to your imagination. (It… Read More Tanned and toned? I’d be so lucky.
I posted a couple of my poems on the WritersCafe.org over the past few days, and WOW. Someone reviewed a couple of them. He was really complementary, and I replied to him cordially. He talked about friendship. He sounded like he needed a friend. He sent me a friend request. I engaged with him. (This… Read More Prophetic
I don’t have a lot of time this morning, so I needed to find some inspiration fast. Nothing was coming for my haiku, so I used a random word generator: Provoked. And nothing was coming here, so I picked a card, which I’ll address at the end. Places to go, people to see today. I… Read More Fast-thinking
I thought yesterday’s meeting went as planned. No shocking revelations, but nothing bad. We are planning a project that should bear fruit in 2020-21, as long as we can get some funding. Things are calm here, as I anticipate moving on to my next UK destination soon. It’s time to wrap things up, see the… Read More My cup overfloweth
Today’s a business day. I’m meeting someone to collaborate with on a project. I’ve known him for about 15 years, and used to play in an orchestra with him. We are probably looking at a 2-year lead time, so you probably won’t hear anything about it for a while, and since it is part of… Read More Transformed
WARNING: ADULT LANGUAGE What is “adult language?” Simply, it is language suitable for adults. If you were to go to WritersCafe.org and look at any of my writings there, you would see them all tagged for mature or adult content, regardless of their actual content. To put it simply, I am writing for adults and… Read More Language
Far from chaotic, today was a day of reconnection, a sublime new restaurant (awesome Mexican egg breakfast), and whimsical thoughts. How do I get chaos from that? I am the seed of chaos. That’s a new one for you. I bring chaos, the fury and passion of love, and all the fluttering of the heart… Read More Chaotic
I went to a party last night. You must think that’s all I’m doing on my trip, but actually this was the only one. I’m seeing old friends, playing a little cricket, and touring the countryside when I’m not cozied up with my laptop journaling my journey for you. Last night, we watched a hot… Read More Balloons
Actually, yes it was. I was asked to be 11th “man” on a cricket team yesterday, and ever the sporty type (as well as constant rain in the forecast), I agreed. It was pouring rain when I left to drive into town, but it cleared up by the time I arrived. I figured they would… Read More It’s not cricket!
