I guess I’ll always look fat, even if I’ve lost more than 100 pounds over the past few years.

I am both happy and sad that I got married before there was such a thing as portmanteau and punny wedding hashtags.

Eating healthy is the most expensive hobby I have ever undertaken. And I collect boutique label physical media and high-end pocketknives.

I don’t think I’ve ever been proud of anything I’ve done. I don’t even feel comfortable typing “my accomplishments” because that presumes I’ve accomplished anything at all, and I haven’t.

I may simply be incapable of feeling pride in regards to myself.

Most of my life now is spent watching other people do the things I wish that I could do.

Wearing my “I’m not a step-dad, I’m the dad who stepped up” shirt to the barbecue to incite fury over my stolen step-dad valor.

It’s been years since I’ve watched cable TV or seen regular commercials.

Turns out, those Charmin bears still love wiping their asses.

Right before the bad times hit.

I’m so very tired of being a burden to everyone.

I own a lot of decks, definitely look for designs that speak to you and give them a shot. The value of finding something that feels “you” cannot be overstated.

I don’t know whether to be flattered or to consider it a prelude to someone inevitably writing “sucks” next to it.

Rider-Waite will always feel like the way to go to me.
That said, l've had the most accurate results with Crowley's Thoth deck.
Caveat: I use this primarily as a means of introspection and self-reflection, for myself or whomever I'm reading for, not prognosticating.

I’m tired of feeling used. Tired of friendships that fade when I’m no longer needed.

A witch told me I have nice eyebrows almost 30 years ago and I’ve held that one closely forever.

not sure what it is about a Wrong Deer that I love so much, but I sure do

Happy birthday.

You would’ve hated everything we’ve become.

I have my own favorite Easter Egg from that video…

A few years ago, I directed the music video for Tyler Childers’ song, COUNTRY SQUIRE. There were a lot of little Easter eggs throughout, including little pieces of art in the background that didn’t really command attention. Here are a couple of those: caricatures of John Prine & Keith Whitley.

All is want is a giant open-world video game like Red Dead Redemption, but it’d D&D. Wanna be a swashbuckler on the Sword Coast? Do it. Wanna be an orc raider in Many Arrows? Do it. Wanna be a Druid who lives alone with a pet deer and grows plants in the Druarwood? I do. That’s all I want.

Happy Hot Dog Day to all who celebrate!
