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…

Move out, move in, same day: Ready, set, go!
Finally, finally, FINALLY moved to a new place; a bigger, prettier, better designed place. It’s THE place. Great location, very walkable, and NO undesirable neighbors (at least everything looks quiet and everybody minds their own business.) The nightmare is over. Peace, serenity and natural lighting will reign. I basically left 70% of my apartment in…

Teachers don’t need guns, please
Whenever you feel your day is going bad because things aren’t going your way… You burn your eyelids studying and you still get a D at the end of the course, or when you get a tire puncture and you have to change it under a 96F sun. You know, life happens. Gotta deal with…

The bar and grill at the pool area
“Excuse me, sir. You can’t have food in the pool area.” — What do you mean, I can’t have food here? What are the tables for? “They’re for the bar and grill customers.” — But I’m a guest here. “Yes, sir. But guests aren’t allowed to bring outside food to the hotel.” — It’s just…

Friday market bloodbath (sighs, yes, again)
The stock market and crypto assets crashed today, yet again. It’s been a long January of bleeding money. Nothing better than going to sleep with the market already down a good 10% – 15%, then waking up, making some coffee and seeing the market nose-dive another 10%-15% more with YOUR LIFE SAVINGS BEING COMPLETELY DEPLETED…

The ‘double-date’ dilemma
Can someone PLEASE tell what’s the deal with the ‘double date’? What drives a human being to think: “Hey, we’re having such a good time together. You know what would make it even better? Throwing one of our friends and their partner into the mix. Doesn’t it sound like a great idea, babe?!” And of…
