G N’ R, Blizzards & Fist Fights (Prompt: 01/12/24)
So, it wasn’t really a road trip per se, but it was memorable. Me and three of my friends got tickets to see Guns N’ Roses at a venue about an hour away during their Use You Illusion Tour. It was during the winter, and there was snow in the forecast, but it wasn’t supposed…

Thinking ’bout…(Prompt: 01/05/24)
I used to spend a lot of time thinking about the past. And usually not the good stuff. I was usually thinking about all the crap I was still carrying along with me long after it’s expiration date. All the wrong turns, all the screw ups, all the friends and family I’d lost, and so…

School Of Sand Fleas & Fire Ants (Prompt:1/3/24)
I just started a course at a local college today, but I can’t count that yet, so instead I will talk about what I did do after graduation. When I graduated, I was at a point where I absolutely despised being in school and the thought of (at least) another four years sitting in classrooms…

A Apolitical Blues (Prompt: 12/28/23)
“I’ve got the apolitical blues, and that’s the meanest blues of all.” Originally recorded by Little Feat, but personally, I am partial to the Van Halen cover. I guess “semi-apolitical” could possibly be an accurate descriptor for me. Webster’s defines apolitical as: 1 : having no interest or involvement in political affairs also: having an…

Tell the world how old you are AKA: Prompt reply: 12/23/23
I don’t know much about what was going on in the world at that time. I was quite young, you see… Anyhow, I do know that: Led Zeppelin released their fourth album (Yes, the one with “Stairway to Heaven” on it). The Doors released their L.A. Woman album. Rolling Stones released their Sticky Fingers album.…

Put it off until judgement day (Prompt reply: 12/22/23)
I don’t know if I’m a good judge of character or not, but I do know my Spidey sense tingles pretty quickly if I sense something off about a person. A lot of times I won’t even know why right off the bat, but something in the back of my head will just say “does…

Happiness is…? (Daily Prompt: 12/21/23)

Daily Prompt Reply – 12/18/23
I could start with asking why it has to be a man who positively impacted your life, but since in my case it is, I guess it’s academic… I would have to pick my father. My father for whom nothing my mother or I did was ever good enough. My father who caused a rift…
