Flashing lights and spinning tops

Tonight, I made a trip to the annual Fireman’s Fair in the neighboring town. At about 8:15, my mom, fresh from picking up my youngest sister from soccer camp, told me that I would be accompanying her to the fair. Oh joy, oh rapture. I changed from the ripped, dirty tank-top I had worn all [...]

Chasing Cats

Timing is everything

So far, so good with the blogging. It comes as no surprise that a lot more can be done and understood about making changes to this thing during the daylight hours. I finally figured out how to fix  the time code application for this. My next endeavour will be to tell it to stop “categorizing” [...]

The Memoir Begins…

After much deliberation, I have decided to try my hand at blogging. I’m using wordpress.com because of the mixed format of a community website, which allows those with common interests to interact, and the ’streamlined’ look of individual pages.
I journal on my own at home, not as much as I would like. I figured that having blog would [...]
