Another super-humid morning as summer truly settles in for the long haul. At least we were out well before sunrise! There is more rain expected to come in later, which may or may not impact Keely's walk schedule. My observation is that rain conjecture by the weather...

In news that should not surprise regular readers, we have confirmation that KB Café is gone. I was pretty sure it was going to close from the moment I saw the sign go up nearly a year and a half ago. Did it ever even open? I have no idea! But now it is home to Leon C....

Friday AGAIN! ahahaha... Today's photo is from last night, when I was walking Keely around the block — a trip up to Thomasville Rd, down to 6th Ave., over to Monroe St. and then back home on 7th. It's not a long walk but long enough after work, when at this time of ...

Another quiet early morning stroll around the pond, in the dark and the humidity. We're due rain over the next few days but I have long ago lost hope that a storm will lower the temperatures by much — it was already 73°F by 5:30 am and it's set to go up to 93°F by...

When I think about it, I realize that being without a car makes me far more cognizant of the spinning of the seasons. In fall/winter, I mostly shower once a day in the evening, and go down to Publix after work. It's cool enough and (often) dark enough to walk home...

I startled myself by getting up earlier than usual, so Keely and I were out for our walk before the sun had risen. I saw a few regulars, a lot of trash, and more house-car people than have been around lately. House-car is my term for people living out of their cars....

Yesterday was a lot of fun, I went and spend hours with friends just playing around with our art supplies! There was no "goal", no demand for productivity, it was simply an art play date and it was wonderful! I did have a bit of an epiphany as we were all enjoying our...

A rare no-photo day, today. Everything was thrown wacky by long early-morning storms that did not let up until after 8 am. Keely, who is not bothered by storms at all but is very bothered by water in general, resigned herself to her dog bed to wait it out with only a...

Yesterday was longer than expected for me at work — I always underestimate how long it will take me to do something, and processing a 40 minute podcast is one of those things. It is a multistep process that takes a lot of time and energy, especially since I have to...

Every Friday I look at the calendar and get surprised by the fact that it is Friday. I did sleep in again, despite being tucked into bed by 9 pm. I could say I have no idea why I'm so tired, but as I pondered it on twitter the other day, I'm pretty sure it is because...

Work has been busy this week — not stressful per se but filled with projects that require a bit of brain power. So, I guess it makes sense that I'm so tired every evening... While I slept in a little bit, I did get out us out for our walk before 6 am, and while the...
6/8/2021 – Tuesday
I overslept again, for reasons I cannot figure. Fortunately Keely woke me up at 6:30 am so we made it out in plenty of time to walk and make coffee before I had to log in for work (I am writing this while on a short break). Of course it's not an option tomorrow when I...
