    Well, my first two days went pretty well. Woke up this morning and felt a little off. Took me awhile to get my ass moving to get ready for work. By the time I got there, I started feeling hot, and about 35 minutes later, I was nauseous as hell. As much as I didn’t…

    This question could not have come at a more inopportune time, as I currently find little humor in anything. I guess that in itself is a bit of a divine joke. To those who know me fairly well, my apologies for my lack of engagement. I truly don’t feel I have much constructive to say…

    Good day, all. A brief update on the first few days of my little Agoge project. I started on Friday 03/22, as a bit of a whim. I just felt the sudden urge to take something new on. Sometimes things require a bit of thought, and other times, it’s best to just go with your…

    Good day, all. We’ve now reached the halfway point of the week, and I hope it’s been good to everyone so far. Temps around here have dropped and there’s a chance of snow/mix in the forecast for later in the week, so Spring is not quite sprung yet. 😄 The NTT Entries for the 03/14/24…
