Cyberwhere Whensday
Yes, I meant to spell it that way. 😄 Good morning! Happy Hump Day and all that good stuff. I hope the week has been a good one so far. I am gearing up to go back to work tonight for a few days. With a little bit of luck they’ll go by quickly. As…

NTT Entries: 05/09/24 Edition
Hey all, it’s that time again! Another fantastic week of creative works for your reading pleasure. I know I am a broken record at times, but seriously, great work on such a consistent basis leaves me in awe of your skills. I hope you know and appreciate just how talented you all are. Instead of…

Both.
And guess what? So are most of us. There might be people out there who think they are cutting their own path, blazing their own trail, answering to no one, and that’s fine. You go on thinking that. Because, from where I’m sitting, most of us answer to someone. Work for a company? You probably…

Dark Lord of the Hunt
As the darkness comes alive And the sun begins to fall He awakens from his slumber As he roams these hallowed halls For the hour is upon him For the hunt he must prepare He knows well that she is waiting Her sacred scent is in the air She’s elusive and beguiling Moving naked ‘cross…

Take It Easy Tuesday
Good morning all. Hope everyone is doing well on this fine Tuesday. I’m taking a slight left turn today and going in a quieter direction. Can’t be all silliness and bombast every day, right? I slept minimally yesterday, so today the plan is to just lay low and do as little as possible. It feels…

The Fatal Five
First, let me start by saying that I am truly appreciative of the deep, philosophical nature of the most recent daily prompts. This one, by far, deserves an award for “Deep Thought of the Year.” Truly breaking boundaries here, we are. Anyhow, I’m a good sport, so let’s play! Grapes As a soon-to-be-emperor, I figured…

Another blogger MIA
Reblogging Alice’s post, as I too, hope Renard is ok. While it is certainly possible he just said the heck with it and bailed, Renard seemed to be a very committed blogger who was in it for the long haul. If anyone knows, and/or can share, is he ok? I don’t know if anyone has…

Mechaphysical Monday
Good day one and all. Welcome to the start of yet another week! Hopefully Lady Monday is not too cruel a mistress to you. My three day stretch is done and now I’m off for a couple. And not a moment too soon, I dare say. Why “Mechaphysical” you might be asking. Well, why not?…

More Weight!
Lifting more weight. Why? Because lifting weight makes me happy. Or, to put it another way, remain consistent with my workouts. I’ve been on a pretty good roll lately, but as I adjust to this new schedule, I have had to cut back slightly. That is fine short term, but long term, not my ideal…

Cloudy With A Chance of Zen
Up above here in the clouds Far above the din so loud A clarity of calm and peace A purity of sweet release No coming, going, to and fro Life up here, a gentle flow All senses free, it’s almost zen Releasing thoughts of where and when There is no pain, no that or this…

Starstruck Sunday
Good morning and welcome to Sunday, everyone! Hope the weekend has treated you all well and it’s been an enjoyable, relaxing one. One more shift to go and then I get my next taste of freedom. Working every other weekend has its downside, but the 5 days off the next week help make up for…

No Stories
This, or a very similar question, was asked not that long ago. I’m not answering it again. 😆 instead, I will take a moment to express gratitude to those who have helped or inspired me on this journey called Life. Family: My family (most of them) has always been there for me. Even when I…

Of Ragnarok
In evening dark the storm clouds rise The shift it comes before my eyes A fleeting glimpse as light turns dark A thunder god shall leave his mark Upon the earth with heavy rains Soaked in fury, drenched in pain A battle wages from on high Away from mortals, in the sky A battle we…

For the Mothers
You nurture us, you care for us You teach us right from wrong And when we cannot sleep at night You soothe us with a song You provide for us and care for us You make sure we are fed You give a loving home to us And tuck us in our bed When monsters…

CyberSteam Saturday
Top of the morning everyone. Hope the weekend is going well so far. Happy Saturday! By the time this post hits I’ll be wrapping up day one of my weekend excursion in the land of milk and honey. AKA: Work 😆 Its been quiet so far and I am totally good with that. If the…

A multifaceted question
This is one of those questions that could have multiple meanings. Living in a free, or “free” country? The freedom to go where I want, when I want? Financial freedom? The freedom to hang out with whomever I choose to, regardless of race, sexual preference, religion or opinion? At the end of the day, the…

Voice of Night
Clearest sky on darkest night I let my mind and soul take flight Detaching from this mortal coil Among the shadows, walk the soil My body grounded, spirit free It’s just the night alone with me I revel in the evening mood I truly love this solitude To none I answer, only me When I’m…

Fantastical Friday (05/10)
Good morning and welcome to Friday. To those of you whose week is ending, enjoy! To those who are stuck working, welcome to the club. I’ll be doing my time until Monday morning and then I’m off for a few. The weather is basically going to suck anyhow, so whatever, I says. 😄 Personally, I…

To Simpler Times
It used to be so easy, you know? All I had to do was show up with a contract and they’d sign without fail. Like that Johnson kid. All I had to do was wait at the crossroads, parchment in hand, and it was a done deal. Man, could he play a mean guitar. Okay,…

Reader and Notifications – WTF?
Man, I’m already in a lousy mood today from lack of sleep and now, I log back in to see yet more surprises with Reader and Notifications. Reader is suddenly slow AF. I mean like snail caught in molasses slow. And no, I am not having trouble with any other pages. Me waiting for Reader…

Simplicity/Synchronicity
Connected by a force unseen Wonder what it all could mean In many forms and many ways Feelings with us all our days A first encounter, second glance Is it fate or is it chance? Watching life move down the street A taste of coffee, sugar sweet Is it really intertwined? Or just a product…

Screw Unto Others
There was a time I used to care A time when I thought life was fair I thought we all played by the rules And then I realized we were fools The rulebook really is a joke A hall of mirrors, cue the smoke If you really do wish to succeed To my words you…

No Theme Thursday: 05/09/24
And we’re back with this week’s edition of No Theme Thursday. Your weekly dose of randomness and imagery, where there is no point and there is no theme, unless you give it one! Hope everyone’s week has been good so far. This is my long week to work, so my weekend is already locked down.…
