I shuffled along the sidewalk yesterday, early on a bitter-cold winter morning, eagerly seeking the sanctuary of dry stretches of sidewalk. On the dry stretches, I lifted my head and stared around and breathed in the crisp air (which resulted in a frozen nose), but more often I found myself tiptoeing along through those slick…

Walking in a Winter Wasteland
I am, at present, barricaded in my office. Outside my window is a world of freeze and white moosh, the skies a bleak grey-white speared through with spindly tree branches. It is cold out, and the snow is still coming down. It astonished me to see that the Denver Winter Storm was not only a local…
Alley Art
Humans, by nature, walk through life with a compulsion to leave their mark on the world. It’s inherent in our makeup, whether one is shooting for a Nobel Prize as a result of something Big, or whether it’s the creation of a child to carry on one’s genes, or the seeking-out of fame.

Dreaming Tech, Creepy Elevators
As I write this I am eating the most glorious instant oatmeal I’ve ever encountered: Chai Apple. CHAI. In my OATMEAL. Victory! There is also a banana. And coffee is involved.

I seem to have a propensity for walking around and taking photos of things. Last November, I fell fairly valiantly, one could say with a mighty thud, off of my workout wagon. My back had gone out, and I was incapable of doing much. Then I got sick. And then my back went out again. …
Rambling Wandering Weekend Mind
Earlier, I had an overwhelming desire to ramble about my peaceful weekend, and it turned into a book/film report. Let me try this again. I seem to have lost my ability to Sleep In past a certain time of morning. This includes weekends, and even days that I am sick. Part of this is that…
Sneaky Saints Fan
Well, actually, I’m NOT a sneaky Saints fan at all. I am, in fact, typically a fairly brazen Saints fan. Today, though, I’m walking in two worlds. It is Casual Broncos Day here at work, which means everyone can wear their Broncos Swag and be all excited. Since MY team is playing this weekend, too,…
