What this does not mean…

I find myself occupied in ways that (sometimes) don’t include updating my website. Which is not entirely true as I am constantly thinking about what to write here and according to Erin have only started more and more rather than stabilizing the length of what I am writing. Truth told, I am more into the [...]

Outlines

J. Michael Straczynski wrote a book on writing screenplays titled, The Complete Book of Scriptwriting, wherein he outlines how to outline writing for movies, television, plays, and more. I have actually found this method of outlining to be interesting in that you deal with a lot of plot and a little dialogue and you essentially [...]

Starting and Stopping

I am taking a brief brain breather to post that I have started and stopped several posts. They get about two paragraphs into a thought and then realize that it’s not what I am really thinking about and then delete the post I am trying to write and move on to something else. At present, [...]

Priorities

I am offering the world my list of priorities. These are the things, and to some extent the order of priority, that I take into consideration when making some of the choices I make. Believe it or not, different priorities will leap to the top of the list that seem rather low. That is because [...]

Diaspora of Thoughts

According to this article Tony Hillerman died. Hillerman is the writer of a bunch of mystery books set on the Native American reservations. My parents really liked reading him, especially since they moved to southwestern Colorado near the Ute Reservation and working on the Navajo Reservation in Arizona with the LDS church. On the sad [...]

Cornbread

Got home from work (missed the school portion of the day) and Lisa had beef stew and cornbread ready for the eating. Very nice food. I don’t think Erin or I have really eaten this well since we’ve been married in part because we both have a tendency to go for the easy foods rather [...]

Once upon a midnight dreary…

Another night and another night where Erin sends me to bed (because I am clearly tired and grumpy and need my sleep) where she stays awake for long hours and still no baby decides to grace us with its presence.
However, on a completely different note, I did read the entire chapter for my survey course [...]
