Went to see Elvis today. It was all right... Not sure it's anything to write home about. Tom Hanks was good as the Colonel. Austin Butler was outstanding as Elvis. Overall, I just thought the movie was too long. And it felt long. I don't mind long movies if they don't feel long, you know? … Continue reading Day Four of the Staycation

Day Two of the Staycation
Y'all... I've done just about nothing today. And it has been glorious. The end.
Day One of the Staycation
I'm off work this week. If I were the kind of person who had an emotional range, there's a good chance I'd smile at that thought. Might even cheer a little. As you can probably tell from the title of this post, I'm not going anywhere for the vacation. Just staying in my little home … Continue reading Day One of the Staycation

Some Effects on the Side
Last week I mentioned that my doctor had prescribed an anti-depressant that I've begun taking. A week in and I've noticed some side effects. Now... I won't go into the details of these side effects. But I can't help wondering, how long do they last? I know the true effects of the medication won't necessarily … Continue reading Some Effects on the Side
Some Transparency…
I've mentioned in some previous posts that I've been struggling for some time. At least I'm pretty sure I've mentioned it previously... Those struggles have included really dealing with depression and anxiety in ways that I never have before. This has been going on for months... nearly a year, really. The anxiety I blame on … Continue reading Some Transparency…
Concerning Vehicular Behavior
I've been driving on a pretty regular basis for roughly 26 years now. In all that time, I have seen my share of road rage incidents. Heck, I've been a part of my share of road rage incidents. Wait... By reading that last sentence, you may be assuming that I'm the sort of road-rager that … Continue reading Concerning Vehicular Behavior
Peckapalooza’s Day Off
I'm playing hooky today. I have my reasons... So I took a sick day. Not necessarily what I would want to do under different circumstances, but I'm doing what I feel needs to be done. Unfortunately, this leaves me with only one more day of sick leave for the remainder of 2022. Let's hope I … Continue reading Peckapalooza’s Day Off
A Dog and the Idiot Holding the Leash
Yesterday I shared that I'm in a funk. That funk has carried over into today. Funny how that works. This morning, as I was leaving for work and heading toward my first client of the day, I had an encounter that was really not an encounter at all. That doesn't make any sense. Let me … Continue reading A Dog and the Idiot Holding the Leash
Can I Be Honest?
I'm in a funk... I don't know what it is... I just don't know. I feel like, overall, things have been improving for me recently. I mean, I finally got myself into regular therapy a few months ago. So that's been helpful in revealing a lot of things about myself and figuring out why I've … Continue reading Can I Be Honest?
