Return to office is just you going to work and having your Microsoft Teams meetings there. All this talk on collaboration and workplace culture is such a sham.

Why is it now, when the holiday’s just around the corner, that I want to be more conscious on what I eat, and get back into running again??

I’m behind on TV shows I want to watch, but holy cow, I’m excited to continue to season two of Severance, after the season finale I just watched!

I guess it’s a good thing BlueSky isn’t affected by Cloudflare right now.

One of these days, I’ll have writing to share, whether it’s a blog post or a microfiction story, but it’s been a rough month on making that happen!

I don’t have the iPad Pro (would really like to have one), I have the 10th generation iPad. With keyboard and mouse support, this has been my daily driver for everything now—even do most of my writing on my iPad.

A decade later, though, the iPad Pro has changed. Rather than try to make it into something other than a laptop, Apple made it… a laptop.

Tonight was one of those nights when I wanted to be asleep an hour or two ago, but through certain situations, I’m now finally getting ready for bed. It’s almost midnight.

I've been thinking about the book "The Artist's Way" by Julia Cameron, and I've been considering starting the eight-week morning pages again.

Tomorrow, my boss returns from vacation, and I was hoping to make today a relaxed workday and get some writing done. Nope… Webserver issues…

Sure, give me a deadline with only a couple of hours left for me to have no problem crunching out a <400-word microfiction story for NYC Midnight.

I made my bed earlier today, expecting my dog to get comfy right away. It was until he got done making a fucking mess with the sheets, that he was finally comfortable.

My horror movie for Halloween: my dog pulling me to the trail behind our house so he can go to the bathroom.

I love his eyes!
This is Kaito. He is the final boss of blue eyes. You are not prepared to face his stare. 13/10 (IG: tikanni.kita.n.tehya.3.sibes)

I have a knack for finding open submissions for short fiction nearing the end of the deadline.

There’s a type of comfort I feel when my Friday and Saturday nights consist of staying home with my wife and dog, and that’s it. A comfort I enjoy dearly.

To fight the desire for another cup of coffee, I’ll be having an herbal tea instead!

It’s a new journal day! I was excited to crack this open and start writing in it.

For the longest time, my wife despised the game, Picross. Yesterday, she decided to give it a shot, since she was bored. Now I can’t take the Nintendo Switch away from her. She loves Picross, now.

Tonight, it’s Baldur’s Gate 3 and watching my opponent crush me in fantasy football.

The frustrating thing about company surveys is that they're not anonymous, no matter how they spin it. I can’t be too harsh without risking my job.

Fast Car, by Tracy Chapman, will always be one of my favorite songs to listen to. I’ll never skip Fast Car.

The one thing I practiced more on social media over the last year is my alt texts on photos. Now, to write good alt texts is the next challenge!
