Random Thoughts From Gorilla HQ: 07.14.24
To: All Forward Units From: Gorilla HQ Sitrep: People need to start working together eventually or this world is fucked. McCormick Grill Mates Garlic Butter Seasoning. Sprinkle this on a frozen pizza before cooking and enjoy. Nope. Still not profiting from these recommendations. Not even a free sample. 🙄 Ketchup or Catsup? Refrigerated or no?…

Channeling Letterman
Last time I checked, I don’t have a late night talk show. Perhaps I should consider doing one? Until then, there will be no Top Ten list. Have a fantastic day, folks! 🤘

Phantom Rider
Once, I was an evil man. I lied, I stole and I killed. Rattlesnake Martin. I was his right hand. Rode together since we were boys. Together ’til the end. The end came when I least suspected. He got greedy. I got dead. As I drew my last breath, I saw the bullets, They cut…

Sci-Fi Saturday 07.13.24
Good morning one and all. I hope this Saturday is treating you well, and your weekend is going smoothly. It has been a busy few days around here. Looking at a potential life change, so that’s been taking up most of my time lately. I’ll keep it to myself for now, but if it comes…

Gods of Steel
As we charge up ragged hill Within my veins I feel the thrill Of combat close, a burning need On flesh and bone my blade must feed It’s thirst be quenched with blood like wine A sacrifice to gods divine No shield shall hold my sword at bay The Gods of Steel shall smile today…

Nope, nope, nope
Not letting you paint me into a corner, WordPress. Maybe I want some security… And some adventure too? Have a great day everybody! 😊

SLDS Mission # 071224
Below are my submissions for Susan’s SLDS Weekly Challenge. This week’s prompt is: A Stolen Kiss in a Moment of Danger I took a few cracks at this one, and these are the two I went with. In the top one, I like that the woman has a small cut on her face, as it…

Hopes and Dreams
Here on the job Another day Her mind is somewhere Far away Somewhere she sings Upon a stage Somewhere she’s free Free from this cage No pushing broom Or cleaning spills Somewhere her voice Inspires chills Somewhere she’s touched Another soul Somewhere she plays A different role Somewhere within Her freedom rings Somewhere she flies…

I’d say my judgement
But since I keep answering these daily prompts, it’s clearly questionable at best. Have a great day, all!

Wizardly Wednesday
Good morning and Happy Hump Day! Hope everyone is doing well as we roll into the midweek. Back to the grind for me tonight, and eyeing 95° temps, which means 100-plus in the shop. 🥵 I’ll be in my office as much as possible, I assure you. 😄 How the hell you all doing? Here’s…

Imitation Is…
Who is this devil I see? Why, he’s almost as handsome as me! He’s watching me, I’m watching back Why don’t you go find a small mouse to attack? Stop mimicking me, foolish cat! I’ve really no interest in that Why are you tilting your big head at me? You’re not funny at all, don’t…

Whenever the sleep gods will let me sleep. And curse the alarm that awakens me. I pity the fool! Have a nice day, y’all!

Seductress In The Temple
**Heads up: Content intended for mature readers who aren’t easily offended. Thanks much.** A tired, weary traveler Walks a lonely path at night Through the eyes of his exhaustion He can see a gleam of light In the distance, he can hear it Sound of laughter, honey sweet He drags his body forward Where he…

Strategy?
Strategy? Are we storming a beach? The Bastille, maybe? I don’t know that I have any “strategies” per se. Drawing up a battle plan to be comfortable seems counterintuitive to me, really. I guess the closest I come is getting the Kuerig ready to fire up a cup of coffee right after I wake up.…

What Do You Seek?
What is it that you seek In these darkest woods at night? Why do you venture here And leave the safety of the light? Are you looking for an answer To the questions in your mind? Are you looking for a vision Are you scared of what you’ll find? Do you revel in the darkness…
