Using the title and similar format - minus the rhyming - of the song by rapper Jadakiss. Why have Tendonitis and Plantar Fasciitis had such a strong of a grip on my feet in the last 3 years?? Why do so many people still follow and defend Donald Trump? Why not the University of Louisville … Continue reading ‘Night Walks’: “Why?”
‘Night Walks’: “Long Days, Pleasant Nights”
On Saturday (6/7), I will perform with a small ensemble at the Southern Indiana Pride Festival. I am a Straight guy, so "why perform there?" My answer: "Why not?" I have quite a few friends that are part of the LGBTQ+ Community. I strongly believe in the notion that you can like/love/do whoever you want, … Continue reading ‘Night Walks’: “Long Days, Pleasant Nights”
Mentally Exhausted – Recharge!
The mental exhaustion is from working two jobs, studying some videos to get re-certified in A+, a lot of video gaming (not a bad thing!!), and not enough sleep. "Burning the candle at both ends." Speaking of gaming, Baldur's Gate 3 continues to remain amazingly fun. I've started using a few mods - mainly, class … Continue reading Mentally Exhausted – Recharge!
‘Night Walks’: “Villain”
It's a weird thing with me: whether it's in a board game or a video game, I have a very hard time playing as the 'villain' or 'the bad guy'. In Betrayal at House on the Hill (and various versions of that game), you could end up being the villain strictly via the luck of … Continue reading ‘Night Walks’: “Villain”
‘Derby’ Thoughts
Well, not specifically thoughts on the Kentucky Derby, which happens on Saturday. These are thoughts that I had to put to "paper", so to speak. I have two extra days off, due to the Derby: the city buses take a massive detour away from Churchill Downs, so what would normally be a 25-30 minute trip … Continue reading ‘Derby’ Thoughts
‘Night Walks’: “Smorgasbord”
So, Patch 8 for Baldur's Gate 3 is live and it's been every bit of fun as I thought it would be! I currently have 2 new campaigns going: one is led by a Level 5 (of 12) Mind Weaver (an added class from a community mod), while the other is led by a Level … Continue reading ‘Night Walks’: “Smorgasbord”
‘Night Walk’
(Maybe 'Night Swim' is a more appropriate title, as Louisville is recovering from the biggest flood since 1997, less than a week after the strongest tornado in nearly 30 years to hit the area) The good news is that a long-lingering bill is in the process of getting paid off, via a payment plan. The … Continue reading ‘Night Walk’
“Night Walks”: Some Quick Hits
(No particular song list, this time) Beating a tricky puzzle puzzle, mini boss, or boss always has brought a high level mixture of satisfaction and relief. Finally beating a Boss in 'Elden Ring' multiplies that level by 5. FINALLY beat Godrick in Stormveil Castle with my Paladin-esque character! Now, to get through Raya Lucaria Academy.... … Continue reading “Night Walks”: Some Quick Hits
‘Night Walks’: 2025 is a Milestone Year
As I plan on how I am going to spend my $1 combined Federal and State tax return, I think about how 2025 is off to a... start... and how there are a lot of 'milestone dates' for me, this year. Those dates include: February 22nd: the 15th anniversary of my heart valves replacement surgery. … Continue reading ‘Night Walks’: 2025 is a Milestone Year
The 80 Days of January – Almost Over!
Surprisingly, this isn't about the U.S. Presidential Elections results.... ... although having this "President" inaugurated on the same day as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day is an absolute insult.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So, January 2025 has been one of the longest, most frustrating months in a very long time. The main sources of frustrations have been money … Continue reading The 80 Days of January – Almost Over!
