Caramba! Cmo pasa el tiempo! or, as they say in Latin, "tempus fugit!" Geez, how time flies!

I've been busy the last two weeks, mostly with work. If I haven't been doing my regular inventory job, I've been proofreading my novel in preparation for the next step in the submission process. On top of that, I've been keeping up on my Spanish lessons. I can...

Well, nothing particularly new to talk about tonight.

I've had a bad cold for the last 3 weeks, but I've finally stopped coughing. Yea!

Obrigado so much to Luna and Adaga for their emotional support on the loss of my father. I feel stronger, thank you.

If you haven't checked out the FP lately, be sure to view Plum and Mendacia in "Let's Date." Brace...

Well, I finally got around to posting a music video of me playing guitar. It was a fun experience trying to get a good recording; for some reason I kept getting distortion on the low end, even without amplification. The end result was acceptable, if imperfect.

For those who like to know the names of guitars, the guitar in this video is named "Isabella." She's...

Yo quiero soar otra vez. I want to dream again.

There was a time when I used to have grand visions beyond normal life. I didn't need psychedelic drugs or anything artificial to make them appear, I would just go to sleep, and I would dream of experiences that make life on this earth plane seem to be a waste of time.

When I grow...

What a great day!

I got up at 5 am for work, and thanks to the scanner and computers working smoothly, all went well. The rest of the day was a bit dull, but I got to come home to respond to a really interesting message from my #1 fave SG! I'm having a blast connecting with people thousands of miles away. Making new friends...

It's peculiar: When I read other people's blogs, I am reminded that no matter what challenges I am facing, there is always someone out there facing down something far worse. I count myself as extraordinarily fortunate. I've never broken a bone (although I've dislocated a couple), I have a steady job, my health is good, and although I could definitely use more money, I'm not...

Well, the weather finally warmed up Beautiful sunshine in the day, and a full Moon tonight. It's about time!

Spent the day with the wife running errands. We went to two music shops looking for an allen wrench so I can tune my new guitar (it has a Floyd Rose Tremolo system, so you have to loosen the pads at the nut which are bolted...

Well, I discovered that making an interesting video was more difficult than I thought. Since I'm a guitarist, I thought I'd post a video of a song, but wouldn't you know playing the guitar was the easy part! In the end, I did several takes, all of which were too large to upload, even at the lowest resolution. In the end I succeeded in editing...

Well, I have 4 friends now, Yea! Don't feel as much of a noob now. Many thanks to Ellys, Mousse, Sash, and YoshimiBrayne for welcoming me. Especially Ellys, who took the time during a personal crisis to answer a friend request.

It's raining here in Oregon (again). I don't mind the rain so much, but I could go for a little bit of global warming,...

Something possessed me to buy a new guitar yesterday. I guess I need to take my music a bit more seriously again.

When the drugs and the sex aren't enough, I have to have more Rock n Roll, I guess.

Rock on, everyone!
