Respect

Nothing but mad respect for all healthcare professionals, but nurses in particular, seem to spend the most face time with patients whenever you are hospitalized. I have been hospitalized more times than I care to count, so I know of whence I speak. I have no doubts my love of nurses came from my stayContinue reading “Respect”

Moving Forward

I made time to block out more of my novel, If Only, and in order to do a serviceable job on the subject of a world where females are the dominant gender, I have to start by breaking down the differences between us. Firstly, I had to address the very issue of gender identification. HowContinue reading “Moving Forward”

Thank You

Now that I’m a 1000+ blog poster, I wanted to take a minute to offer thanks to some of the key people who have each helped, in their own way, to make this one glorious ride so far. I want to thank Linda, an 8th grader (I was in seventh grade) for telling me IContinue reading “Thank You”

Pass the Salt

This crow is a little bland. Just when I throw in the towel for democracy in general and the Democratic party in particular, one hundred million dollars is raised in 48 hours for the presumptive presidential nominee Kamala Harris. This money is coming from five, ten, and twenty dollar donations from citizens across this greatContinue reading “Pass the Salt”

I Don’t Care…

about our dying democracy; I care for future generations. I don’t give a damn about our crumbling bicameral system; it’s not working. And don’t get me started about the self-centered dumbasses that populate our judicial branch. If you think it’s bad now…… I have maybe a decade left (if I’m lucky), so their favorite dictatorContinue reading “I Don’t Care…”

How Much is Too Much?

A question for the ages… To the person who says that “you can have too much of a good thing,” I say they obviously weren’t living alongside me in Las Vegas in the eighties. Too much money? Right. I have no animosity or envy of rich people. I want them to succeed the same asContinue reading “How Much is Too Much?”

Jolly Old

I retain fond memories of my time in Europe, particularly in the midlands of England, outside the city of Oxford. Housing for military at the small ex-RAF base Upper Heyford was at a premium, and my mom always insisted we did NOT live in base housing, rather, she preferred us to encounter our new hostContinue reading “Jolly Old”

Freedom of Speech

The first amendment and all that. I have been banned from Facebook because of a story I previously published here on this blog. It was excerpted from my book EMOTIONS: Not your Mama’s ABC’s! Talk about small-minded. I tried to explain to the “Appeal Board” that my words were a creative work of fiction, butContinue reading “Freedom of Speech”

Maybe It’s Time

As of today, we have had forty-five presidents lead our country. Zero women have held that office, and the failed campaign of Hillary Clinton saved us all from just another one of the good ‘ole boys dressed in a Brooks Brothers power suit. In our zeal to show a fake sense of inclusion, we actuallyContinue reading “Maybe It’s Time”
