Well, folks, artificial fevers. They work. I'm telling you. Been doing them for years now. And... now I have some evidence! Check this out: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/11/111101130200.htm For any who may not know, starting some years back, if I started feeling the first symptoms of getting a cold or something of that nature, I gave myself an … Continue reading 2020-04-12 — Pinkie Promise

My head is pounding. Not sure I've got much in the tank to write anything meaningful tonight, so perhaps we can just call it a win that I'm even here writing, eh? Y'all good with that? I'll write a tad, just because... So... it's been another rough day. First guy canceled. The second job went … Continue reading 2020-04-11 — Migraine

Yeah... you've probably accurately guessed the meaning of the title if you've been keeping up with what I've been writing recently. Ugh. Rough day. I woke up sick... but at the time, not 100% sure it wasn't just allergies. Then you've got this whole Covid-19 thing, and what feels like a normal generally harmless (but … Continue reading 2020-04-10 — 4 1/2 Letter Average

Hi, peopleses 😊, What a difference a day can make!Last night while I was at Miguel's celebrating his birthday, the wind started to pick up pretty good, and the breeze turned cool rather quickly, and when I woke up this morning, it was a lot colder outside than the 90-degree high it had reached yesterday. … Continue reading 2020-04-09 – Just Like Arkansas Weather

A meeting was scheduled, and the deal offered to the consultant was that one third of … Continue reading 2020-04-08 — Much Ado About Nothing

Even'n, folkses. 😊 Happy Tuesday. 😊 Let's see... Today was a good day! Well, of course it was, right? I mean... every day is a good day: It's just good in different ways. 😊 (I used to say that regularly..., but it's been a while since I've had the courage to admit that. Life has … Continue reading 2020-04-07 — Lighter Days

After graduating from BYU but before heading off to graduate school at the University of Utah, I went on a fun little three-week trip to Peru with one of my best friends whom I met at BYU. He and I had a blast, traipsing around Lima, Arequipa, Puno, Cuzco, Machu Picchu, etc. I have some … Continue reading The University of Utah Years (’05-’08)

Hi, y'all. 😊 Today has been an interesting one. It's got me focusing a little bit more on what's important in life. It started out normally enough. I sent my contract worker out on a job, and I headed into town to do a job as well, as I'd double booked the schedule. I got … Continue reading 2020-04-06 — Perspective

Not sure what the deal is, but I feel disproportionately tired to the day's events. I'm exhausted, and I haven't really done much other than be in front of screens all day. 🙃 Brain. Not. Working. I'm in one of those fogs where I can't think clearly. My abstract thinking skills right now "are about … Continue reading 2020-04-05 — 0.5 Down. 6.5 to Go

You know, I've lived here in this house in Arkansas for something like four years now, and I've never, not even once, done one of my childhood staple activities that I've done all over the place even as an adult!!! I've never wandered up the creek!!! 🙃 Well, today I did. 😊 I didn't go … Continue reading 2020-04-04 – Down By the Creek
