Incremental learning mode…math as discovery tool instead of something you have to “get right”–maybe. Adventures du jour! I mostly just have weird little stubby half-thoughts to report for the last few days. No new big breakthroughs. Lots of inching forward, then getting stuck, then taking a slightly different approach or switching to something else and […]

Yesterday was a Pain In the Ass (PITA) day, where I tried to get caught up on practical stuff. I made a decent dent in it, although by no means did I do everything on the list. This morning, I got up felt the patio window, and realized I needed to start getting my ass

Gamer dude…A privilege to chew meat…end of a fear-based economy. Adventures du jour! I have one ear back! Still feverish. I skipped walking yesterday but went today. Good day yesterday despite starting out so whiny. Gaming online with a friend again. A lot of low-level quests to start building good practice on playing well together

Allergies…doodling faces…a ramble on “words” Adventures du jour! I’ve been sick with a bunch of upper respiratory/ear infections/severe joint pain due to allergies, probably tree allergies, probably live oak allergies. I think the allergies are more or less in check at this point! My hearing is still a bit muffled on one side, but I’m

A day when the gods can’t see me…friend project…trashing AI art and artists Adventures du jour! Today is a day of errands; at the time I wrote this, I was sitting at a tire shop waiting for tires and oil change. After that I did groceries. Now I’m home and getting ready to write fiction.

Movement stuff…shifting identities, first via movement, then via the multiverse…using movement to fix exhaustion Adventures du jour! Today’s post is super-nerdy movement stuff and not much else! You’ve been warned. Conscious mind: I have stuff to do! Writing fiction! Class! Letters! Stuff! The rest of whatever goes on in there: HUH. You’re going to hear

Talking to friends…hard triggered…anger…consulting Most Favored Tree, and also laying out tarot/oracle spreads for clarity…”this is human too.” Adventures du jour! Yesterday was a good day and a bad day. Good day: talked to several friends. AHHHHHH so good. My tanks were getting empty and I didn’t even realize. Bad day: got hard triggered and

From winter to spring…Persephone the Goddess…Hamilton the Musical…Picnic Island Park (Tampa)…When empathy hurts in surprising ways My stomach has flipped, which means my internal landscape has switched from fall/winter to spring/summer. (My stomach operates on or around cross-quarter pagan holidays.) So I am abruptly in a much more cheerful mood. Ray, thank goodness, knows the

MLK Jr. Day…anger and change…studying art styles using Midjourney…belly dancing move or what? Adventures du jour! I should be writing. I know this. But my brain is too full right now. If I break off without finishing the thought in this post, just know that I got inspired and hit “post” here without thinking. Today

Bullshit & bandaids Adventures du jour! This one is mostly a ramble about doubt. I tend to take stock of my goals and ambitions a little later in the year (Groundhog Day), but I ran into something upsetting that prompted me to start doing so earlier. I *thought* I had a grip on it, but
