Stability ahead, smooth sailing awaits
Tomorrow I officially start my new side gig. I haven’t had a ‘second job’ since the start of the pandemic in March 2020. Now that I reminisce, my schedule before ‘everything changed’ was pretty packed. Between my main “9am to 5pm” job as Chief editor (still going strong), freelancing copywriter once in a while and…

I’M BACK ONLINE!
After 10 days of first-world suffering without high-speed wireless internet, I’m FINALLY connected to the net! The guy came in at the last hour available within the scheduled appointment. Told me he’s gonna need to charge the full installation because “the line to the main connection box is not set-up on the corner of my…

T-Minus 18 hours to access the Internet
Nine days in total. This has been the longest I’ve been without Wi-FI in an apartment ever since I moved out from my parents house on my own during college (like a decade ago).

Reportedly, the Northeast got 30 inches of snow. Compared to Ohio’s 4 to 10 inches. Me? I stayed inside with good company, worked from home, ate to my heart’s content…

For that brief moment it is your whole world, your complete universe. You take with you an emotion that has nothing to…

The time I participated in the Olympics
Due to a clerical error, my person was confused with an Olympic swimmer with the same name. In a series of comedy-type scenes, where they push you without being able to do anything, I was picked up in a van, gave a duffel bag already packed, was transported to the airport, put in a special…

Missed it, again… 5 minutes, just 5 f-ing minutes
So, I missed my 12am “write one thing every day for a whole year deadline” by 5 minutes. I really cannot accept this one as a failure on my part. Had to answer 2 very important important calls that ate of all my ‘evening writing time’. Plus I spent the whole day cleaning my old…
