It's annoying AF.Another month before I see the surgeon. Here's hoping he can fix the cartilage tear and the other few things that … Continue reading My patience is at an all-time low

I’ll Be Waiting
It's Tuesday. New Zealand went to RED at midnight on Sunday night. We cancelled our "Inside Quote Marks" event yesterday. Our authors are wonderfully supportive and kind, and all understand that this is how it has to be. I don't think I ever believed we would be able to run this event. I'm not overly … Continue reading I’ll Be Waiting
Writing music:
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3sqb97qAXnHh1yZNYN7Z1d?si=97aafb9b517a4629 Welcome to Friday.This week was a big week for my brain.

One step closer.
Today started rough. Last night was a disaster, I got bugger all sleep. That doesn't not make for a fun day, I can assure you. AND THEN ... I took the wrong glasses with me to work.

Who shot Crockett?
🙂 Did anyone shoot Crockett? You'll find out when [Leave a message] launches around about the middle of 2022. If he survives without a scratch I'll be very surprised.

Wouldn’t it be great …
If you could plug yourself into a charger or stick your hand on a changing mat and magically re-charge. Well, I think it'd be damn handy. Especially in muggy gross weather. Summer so far is horrible. I'm not a fan. Enough about my dislike of wet weather.I stumbled across something the other day that sounded … Continue reading Wouldn’t it be great …

In My Secret Life
Thanks to Leonard Cohen for the blog title (yes, there will be a link down below to this track). It's probably no secret to anyone here that I grew up with Leonard Cohen loving parents. So, I'm a wee bit familiar with his music and poems. Anywho, moving right along. The reason I chose 'In … Continue reading In My Secret Life
