    Wow. This feels very strange, to say the least. It feels like I have been away far, far longer than I have. To be honest, I am not even sure where to start, so I guess I’ll just “start” and see where we end up. 😄 The back half of 2025 was very, very hectic…

    Because that sounds much more smooth than “curiouser and curiouser”. 😄 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…

    Geez…Not quite THAT broken. 😄😄 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…

    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…

    It’s Drink O’Clock somewhere… What is this “vacation” thing ye speak of? 😄 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…

    Happy 4th, y’all! Happy 4th of July to those who are observing it, and a great Friday to all! If you are celebrating this weekend, please stay safe and have an enjoyable time! I tend to not do much on this holiday. Nothing to do with politics or any of that crap, mostly because I…

    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…

    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…

    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. 😄 Anyhow… Amongst all the times I’ve been asked, my answer really has not changed. I would still give the…

    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…

    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…

    I don’t “understand” the point of this prompt. 😄 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. 😄 I mean, really, most of us don’t understand a lot of things,…

    I know I have only answered this exact same question a time or ten, but what the hell. I’m in the mood to bitch about the weather a bit anyhow, since it is hampering my ability to bounce back from recent “stuff” that happened to me. 🙄 Personally, I think Fall is the almost perfect…

    Why, yes I did, actually. And I even have a few pics! 😄 So, I have had absolutely zero interesting to post the last few days, so I figured I would share a few snaps of the interior of the Van Halen remaster of For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge that I bought recently. It is very…

    Why, yes I would, thank you. Honestly, today’s prompt did zero for me, so I am flipping it to use for my own purposes. Apologies to those who were looking for an actual reply to the prompt! 😊 The mirror black A shattered dream Within your mind A silent scream You cast an eye Back…

    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. 😄 I’d blame it on my age, but I have always had a bit of a stubborn streak in me. It’s probably…

    I can’t think of any one that stands out. They’re all nice! I think it’s tough to narrow it down to just one compliment. Personally, I appreciate them all. Whether it be for my writing, my photos, images, a work accomplishment, or about my parenting abilities, and so on. I don’t always take compliments that…

    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…

    I hate when people ask “Are you sleeping?” When I am clearly asleep. BTW, WP…I was asleep when you woke me with this silly question, so add that to the list of things I don’t like to be asked! 🙄🙄 Have a great day, folks! Logo by Laura Bennett @ Black Moon Lilith

    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.…

    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…

    And this question is still dumb AF. 😄 Just as I said in last year’s reply, if I did break the law, unintentionally or otherwise, I sure as hell wouldn’t be advertising it here. Or anywhere else really. 😜 So, instead, just like last time, I’ll toss out a quick update on “stuff” in general…
