  • The WTF Moment…

    We, as human beings, generally act on emotions.  We do things because we want to do them.  We would like to think that we only do things that will benefit us, but we all know that is not always true.  I have done completely stupid things just because I wanted to.  (Pulling the e-brake going…

  • Lost

    I struggle to admit that I am a bit lost.  So many things have happened in the past few months, that it is hard to keep track of the good from the bad.  When multiple good things happen that contradict each other, that can turn into a mind fuck.  Needless to say, I struggle with…

  • Bunch of Pussies

    What is wrong with people these days?  Everyone is so scared they are going to offend people because they believe a certain way.  To make it worse, people are offended by everything.  “I am offended you believe in God.”  “I am offended you don’t believe in God.”  WHAT?!  Why are you even offended someone else…

  • Changes

    Changes can be thrust upon us suddenly, or they can gradually take hold slowly.  Regardless, change can have a profound effect on us and our lives.  Change can be good, bad, or both.  Having a baby is usually a very good thing for a couple, but if that couple is 14 or 54, that changes…

  • Not Every Time

    These posts are generally rather negative in some fashion.  That is usually because people are idiots, and most of them do not even realize it.  This post is different. Jayden was diagnosed with a slew of medical issues at a very young age.  Due to these medical issues, he was never going to be able…

  • Vacation to Work

    There seems to be something wrong with needing to take vacation from work to get work done around the house.  It happens often around this time of  year.  Working full time, going to school full time, taking kids to football practice, keeping up the house, cooking dinner, and many other things I cannot remember.  When…

  • Gender Differences

    Are men and women equal?  No.  Are all men equal?  Nope.  Are all women equal?  Again, no.  Is that bad?  Not at all.  We all deserve equal rights, or at least an equal chance to live our lives.  The choices we make in life help decide how much of that freedom we keep.  Anyone who…

  • Worthless Classes

    I finally got through my precalc and IT-200 class.  I used to like math, but I literally understood nothing in precalc.  Sure, I could solve the problems, but I had no idea what any of it really meant.  There was no meaning behind it.  IT-200 was a joke.  It was probably a good class for…

  • Optimistic vs Pessimistic

    I try to be optimistic about my future.  Sure, I am going to make mistakes, but I hope I am smart enough to not make catastrophic mistakes.  It is much more difficult to be optimistic about the future of our species when it is filled with so many stupid people. In the mid-1950s, our country…

  • Never Static

    For some reason, I cannot sit still.  I always have to be doing something.  Just staring at a TV or screen drives me nuts.  Three books are published, but I cannot rest there.  I have been toying with the idea of writing a spin-off series, but for that, I need a little more calm than…
