Tea Olives and Tank Tops

Posted in Augusta, Charleston, My Bed., outside, Thoughts on September 30, 2011 | Leave a Comment »

I awoke this morning to the semi darkness of the late sunrise of early autumn.  Getting out of bed this time of year is exceedingly difficult, and as much as I hate the darkness when I get off work, I appreciate the sunlight in the morning.  I intensely covet the ability to bounce of out bed [...]

El Camino

Posted in Augusta, Charleston, Masters, Thoughts on April 20, 2011 | Leave a Comment »

My new favorite song is Amos Lee and Willie Nelson, with the above stated title.  It is soothing, inspiring, and brings to mind desolate, dusty roads with the sun on your shoulders (we are in a convertible of course) and wind in your hair.  I”m wearing faded jeans and a white tank top, no watch, [...]

Tweny-Leven

Posted in Charleston, summertime, Thoughts, Weather on January 28, 2011 | Leave a Comment »

Last January, I struggled with the pronunciation of 2010.  Twenty-Ten?  Two-Thousand-Ten?  Eventually, I was told that the correct pronunciation was Twenty Ten.  Okay.  This year, I’m again confused.  Twenty Eleven?  Two Thousand and Eleven?  Most of the radio commercials here in Charleston have decided to go with Tweny-Leven, which I’m fairly certain is not the [...]

Hi.

Posted in Current Affairs, Thoughts on October 7, 2010 | 2 Comments »

So far, twenty ten has been fairly tumultuous for me.  The strongest indication of what a hard time I was having is probably that I stopped writing.  Not probably.  Definitely.  I have been struggling for the past year to find the right job, the right professional environment, the right motivations.  And I think I’ve finally found it. [...]

Short work weeks and Shade

Posted in Books, Difficulties, summertime, Television, Thoughts on June 3, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

The best thing about a Monday holiday is that on Thursday you think it is Wednesday and Friday is here before you know it.  I got home on Monday from a six day long trip to Chicago for work then to Charleston for pleasure.  It was pouring down rain and I was so happy because [...]

You Make Your Own Luck, There is No Curse.

*I wrote this post a week and a half ago and it didn’t get posted due to operational error.  So I’m reposting now.  I did reread it and I think it still makes sense. A while back, at the beginning of the year – I said I was going to reflect on things I learned [...]

April Showers Bring May Flowers

Posted in Augusta, Beauty, Thoughts on May 10, 2010 | 1 Comment »

It barely rained at all this April, but we’ve had spectacular flowers anyway.  Once it did finally start raining in May, everything started growing, growing, growing.  Sprouts, shoots, branches, buds, springing up from every empty space.  Cracks in the sidewalk, the space between the slats on the porch, the nook in the tree, chinks in [...]

Twenty-Ten?

Posted in Thoughts on January 11, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

I keep saying Two Thousand and Ten.  Which, is apparently WRONG.  I also keep writing 200, only to catch myself and go back and insert a 1 before the last 0.  I’m still thinking about lists I want to make of things that happened in the last decade.  Do you think there is something wrong [...]

Happy 2010!

Posted in Thoughts on January 6, 2010 | 3 Comments »

I want to write a long New Year post, and talk about the events of the past decade, and the past year and what I’ve learned and how I’m different and how I’m the same.  But I just haven’t done it, and I’m not going to do it right now either.  I did get all my [...]

Rain

Posted in Thoughts on December 8, 2009 | 2 Comments »

I am in my bed, listening to the rain pour outside my window.  I have things to say tonight.  I think some pandora radio will help me think and write.  Guess what the first song Pandora wants to play for me tonight? Rain – Patty Griffin.  I wish I could start it over and play [...]
