As we are in a 'slowish' period at my main job, I'll take a mental stroll in the daylight. Weird, I know. Vacation realistically started on 7/29, 2:30 PM, when I got off of work. The 29th was also my birthday. My birthday, plus the next 12 days, were pretty low-key, for the most part. … Continue reading DAY Walk: Is the ‘Season of Discontent’ Over?
‘Night Walks’: Some Odds and Ends
I have been on a "Boom Bap" music kick, lately. YouTube has at least 9 volumes of music entitled "Return of the Boom Bap". It's simple beats with drums and cymbals (usually on a drum machine), with samples from other, older songs. These tracks are mostly instrumentals, with a late-1990s/early-2000s vibe. I've had them playing … Continue reading ‘Night Walks’: Some Odds and Ends

A (much smaller) Look Back At 2020….
I like to write posts, in the last week of December, that are part "Best Of..." lists, part Resolution reviews, and Resolutions/Goals/Wishes for the upcoming year.Covid-19 pretty much dominated the first two; let's hope it doesn't dominate too much of 2021.

I am still COVID19-free *knocks on wood*. However, I am insanely exhausted; how do you end up doing more stuff during a worldwide lock down?? Well.... ... I prepped for, and took, a Final for my Java Programming class. 35% of my semester grade, I ended up with a 78% on the Final. I think … Continue reading Start of Summer “Break”?
