So, some notes: What is it like here? Very flat. Very flat and brutally hot. And some days I am as depressed as it is hot, because I have not found work. So come to Houston and fry an egg on the sidewalk and see a depressed guy, jobless, but not without friends kind of…… Continue reading Untitled

Travel Notes, Part C
Technically speaking, what I write here is no longer travel notes, but notes to end out the “series.” It has so far been two full days for us in Houston, and as the clock strikes midnight, strikes my wife’s birthday. These are days of unpacking and organizing, cleaning, and so on. Exhausting. Can you say…… Continue reading Travel Notes, Part C
Travel Notes, Part B
Slept all the way through Nashville, TN. Theron has us cruising right along. The way he feels about it is if he’s got the energy, he might as well use it now.

So I’m back up again, sitting in the rocking chair, the lights out in this dusty old apartment, fan oscillating, constantly blowing my nose. And…… Continue reading Travel Notes, Part A

And I understand them being cordial, too. I guess it’s…… Continue reading Untitled
The Pile That Falls To The Floor
Wow, it is 4 am already! I’ve been up late like this because of my bouts with asthma coming on from packing up here in the apartment. Just two weeks left before the move and here I am getting broken down from all the dust rising. When we escape into the fresh air, I find…… Continue reading The Pile That Falls To The Floor
Contemplating Mortality (aka freaking out)
My counter is spitting the days out at me. 16 left. Then we move to Houston. The big move. Some nights I sit quiet with this. A very surreal feeling when you’re about to move off somewhere far away – makes you reflect on life, how you’re traveling through it, and one day it’s gonna…… Continue reading Contemplating Mortality (aka freaking out)
