CuriousΒ²
Because that sounds much more smooth than “curiouser and curiouser”. π Slightly laid up at the moment. “Curious” is a fitting prompt, because it’s been a curious couple days. Well, curious week, actually, but especially the last couple. So, as you can see from the above pic, I am slightly laid up right now. I…

Like A Broken Record
Geez…Not quite THAT broken. ππ Still, the point stands. I hope everyone has been doing well this week. Wanted to check in and say I was thinking of y’all. Kind of ironic that today’s prompt is about health and well being. That’s where the “broken record” part comes into play. I have not been posting…

Alive And (Kinda) Kicking
114 in the shade, as it were. Greetings, fellow word(press)smiths! I hope everyone is doing well and having a good week thus far. I had to unexpectedly drop off the radar because it’s been one hell of a week ’round here. First, we got walloped with another blast of high heat this week. Average temperature…

Vacation? WTH Is That?
It’s Drink O’Clock somewhere… What is this “vacation” thing ye speak of? π For multiple reasons, I have not taken an actual “vacation” in probably 20 or 30 years at least. Truthfully, I can’t even remember the last time I took one. Might have been when I was a kid and went because the family…

Every Day Is A New Adventure
High adventure, Matey! Habits? Routine? What’s that? So, I am officially two weeks gone from the old job and working my way into the mix at the new one. It’s been a big period of adjustment for me. New place, new people, new industry, new hours (for the moment, at least). Needless to say, “daily…

G-Man Has Left The Building
See ya!! Saying Goodbye So, as I already alluded to a few days ago, the time at my job was almost up. Therefore, while this is far from my favorite moment ever, it ranks pretty high for today. Yesterday I officially put the wrap on my old job. Apparently, I also made a bit of…

“This many!”
Truthfully, I honestly can’t even recall how many times the “favorite season”, or some variation of this prompt has come up. In the past year, I swear I have seen it at least 10 times. π Anyhow… Amongst all the times I’ve been asked, my answer really has not changed. I would still give the…

Lord High Gorilla Emperor, etc…
I think I have covered this a time or ten before, but I think “Lord High Gorilla Emperor of All Time, Space and Reality” just about nails it. Now with Cybernetic Power Gauntlets! I mean, I’m a simple fellow, after all. I don’t think that’s asking for too much, really. Although, I must admit I…

The Life & Times Of G. Damn Rilla
So, now that I finally have some news and answers, I can say a bit more about what’s been going on with me the past few weeks/months. This might take a minute. Sorry if it rambles a bit. π I have alluded to some health stuff that I’ve been trying to get taken care of,…

Rage & Anger (And Maybe A Quip Or Two Along The Way)
While there is a hint of humor in the title of this post, I would be remiss not to add that there are also more than a couple nuggets of truth within it as well. I don’t necessarily know that I have a specific time or incident that I will point out within this little…

Gone Overboard!
The first step is a doozy Okay, so I didn’t fall overboard. Not quite, anyhow. π I just wanted to take a brief moment to say that neither Laura or I have fallen off the face of the earth again. I am sure most of you saw her post and know she’s adapting to a…

I Don’t Get It
I don’t “understand” the point of this prompt. π Wait…What? Yes, I am being a bit of a smartass here. The question is fairly straightforward, but it’s still a bit of a pointless one. Yeah, I know…Most of the daily prompts are. π I mean, really, most of us don’t understand a lot of things,…

All Retro, All Day
Because everything needs an intro. π Good day, and Happy Saturday, y’all! I’ve been slightly under the radar after getting exposed to some stuff on the job that kinda messed me up for a spell. I’m feeling better, but recovery has been slowed by the constantly shifting weather. 70 degrees during the day, and then…
-

Stubborn
I am quite sure that if you asked those who know me they could come up with more than a few creative one-word descriptions of me, but we’ll stick with “stubborn” for now. π I’d blame it on my age, but I have always had a bit of a stubborn streak in me. It’s probably…

Random Thoughts From Gorilla HQ: 3/14/25
To: All Forward Units From: GHQ Central Priority: Eh, Whenever First, a Happy Holi to those who are celebrating. Enjoy your festival! The other stuff: The 60-hour work week? Meh, not a fan, to put it mildly. Whomever invented that concept clearly never worked it. Or just hates people. π Sazon. Now, whomever invented that…

Dear G-Man,
Dear G-Man, You’re 100 years old now. I bet you’re the sexiest son-of-a-bitch in the nursing home. How old were you when Laura finally got sick of your shit and tossed your ass in that prison cell? You always were a pain in the ass. Did the kid disown you too, or did she actually…

Where The Hell Do You Think?
Freaking Gorilla Mart, of course. If you can’t find it there, then you don’t freaking need it. Have a great day, folks!

Just Another Stone In The Road
I love when WP lobs me a softball Makes it really easy. π I only have to go back a little over a year to when I lost my job. Everything was going along perfectly fine, and then some mistakes were made, and next thing you know, bam! I was out on my ass. What…

Shoe Fly Blues
First, a moment of silence, please. I finally had to pull the trigger and retire my beloved Doc Martens. Farewell, my friend. It was a good run. Yes, I had to put them out to pasture a couple weeks back when I went outside at work and promptly felt the water seeping into my boot.…

Just One?
I did reply to this last year and named just one (very important) gift, but this year, as I sit here preparing to brave the tundra and chip away a ton of pesky ice, I am enjoying a coffee and reflecting on all the gifts I have been fortunate to receive. And yes, fighting the…
