Lunch in Alvarado
I’m writing this post because the Little Man asked me to do something. Also, over his sixteenth birthday celebration we had a conversation about his nom-de-blog. He’s half a foot taller than I am, broader in the shoulders, and ‘little’ just isn’t the right word any more. Except… he thinks it’s funny. And he told…

Space Opera Noir
I don’t know. Opera, with all the death and dying, seems noir to begin with. On the other hand, there’s a cyborg. Maybe it will make more sense after you read Sarah’s take on it. Click the cover to magically transport for purchase.

Learning to Dance in the Lab
I’m immersing myself in research for the upcoming career transition. If I had time, I’d be taking classes. As it is? I’m an autodidact. When I want to learn something, I take a running leap and deep dive into everything I can lay my hands on. Which is a surprising amount, especially when you are…

Odd Prompts: Nursery
I give you a scene. I’m really tired now. It was a sedate adventure. And then I added more adventures on after it, until my weekend was all gone and I’m happy but exhausted! ***** Her fingertips brushed down over the light panel, and the room dimmed into darkness. Before her eyes had a chance…

Just when I was getting in the groove
I’ll be out of pocket for a couple of days. Off having an adventure, hopefully a small, sedate adventure. I could really go for sedate right about now. I’m doing good. The work week is over, I have three days off stretching out in front of me, and the prospect of something fun. When I…

It’s Tomorrow
Whaddaya mean, it’s tomorrow? I haven’t been to bed yet. I need to get some sleep, so I’ll go there, next. But recently writing the blog as an exercise to wind down after my shift seems to be working. Dunno how it reads to you all – yesterday’s was rough, I know. I’m sorry not…

Thinking Out Loud
I’m always hesitant to write when I’m in a state of high emotion. It’s not that I won’t be passionate here – I certainly have been before. It’s just that when I’m in a state of mind that isn’t quantifiable, other than perhaps melancholy, I tend to draw a screen between myself and the world,…

The Game of Life
The inspiration of my short prompt response this week. Makes an interesting thought exercise, does it not?

Facing the Unknown
We all face unknowns. We just don’t stop and think about it all that often, which is honestly probably a good thing. It’s no better to live in the future than it is to dwell in the past. We can make plans, with the understanding that no plan survives contact with the enemy. If you…

When the rulebook for the first ever Interplanetary Games was announced there was an outcry from the Martian and Lunar Colonies. All the competitions had to be held at Earth-standard gravity – in the eyes of non-Earth-based competitors this biased the Games in favour of the Earth-based countries. –UniverWiki entry date 3456 21:67 Everyone knew…

Education, the Hard Way
Some day, I’ll do a blog post with more than fifteen minutes to squeeze in the writing of it. This is not that day. This is a day where I had things scheduled, things got canceled, and then I spun my wheels for a while before buckling down to it. And it’s a day where…
