I’ve decided I really need to write down my favorite passages from Lapham’s Quarterly; this one comes from the winter 2009 volume – EROS. It is from Benjamin Franklin concerning the advantages of dating/marrying older verses younger women. Seems like sage advice to me: You should prefer old women to young ones.Because when Women cease…… Continue reading Lapham’s Quarterly – Go for the older woman

It is 6:02 AM and I’m listening to a very sad, haunting piece that evokes a strong feeling of mystery and loneliness – as though something has been forgotten, left behind and abandoned as time marches on. The sound of the strings call out from a dark place in the past asking to be remembered…… Continue reading Journal Entry – Thursday, 2.4.2016
Journal Entry 1.28.2016
It is 6:14 AM and I feel as though I haven’t had much time to write as much as I’ve wanted to lately. 2016 is turning out to be a much different year. I’ve started my gym routine and am now going as soon as I wake up which is usually around five. I haven’t…… Continue reading Journal Entry 1.28.2016

It is 10:18 AM and I’m at the Ferry Building downtown. I’ve got a few spare moments ago thought I’d get a Blue Bottle coffee and see if I like posting from my cellphone. I have to say this swift keyboard isn’t bad and doesn’t make too many mistakes but I still am not much…… Continue reading Wednesday January 20th

It is 4:58 AM and my dominant thought is how my perception of American society has changed. This isn’t some grand, researched historical post but really just how I see things. My main point is that I feel community is fading away and we are all on our own from a societal prospective. I felt…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 1.15.2016
Journal Entry – January 14th, 2016
It is now 4:23 PM on what I thought was Wednesday but is actually Thursday. My head is spinning from an extremely busy week at work. I’m still covering other territories and I’ve got a lot of stuff from my own territory to handle. The day is wrapping up and I took some time to…… Continue reading Journal Entry – January 14th, 2016
Journal Entry – 1.13.2016
It is 5:40 AM on Wednesday morning in the first month of 2016. The wind was blowing strongly through the night which woke me up a few times. I always enjoy a good storm at night but I didn’t hear drops of rain, just a lot of wind blowing through the trees. This year continues…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 1.13.2016
Journal Entry – Monday January 11th
It is Monday, January 11th at 4:48 AM. The holidays are a distant memory as is 2015. As I mentioned in a previous post we’ve done a lot of reorganization and cleaning to get the year started off right and now only have one room left to do. Yesterday morning was spent out on the…… Continue reading Journal Entry – Monday January 11th
