Truthful Tuesday
I can pick up a guitar and give you a veritable endless stream of new riffs but
I’ve never been much of a lyricist and
it’s been almost exactly 11 years since I last wrote a set of lyrics (May 19, 2001).
As of last night, it’s time to reset that timer.
It didn’t come easily and I don’t know if more will follow.
But still, I’m happy to have that monkey off...

Truthful Tuesday
It’s amazing to me that another week has passed, because there are multiple times each day when I become so entwined in my own thoughts that minutes feel like hours and I beg the earth to rotate more quickly.

Truthful Tuesday Redux
The biggest risk that comes with asking difficult questions is getting difficult answers in return.

I really do not like feeling this unstable.
I’m starting to think that I’m not very good at reading people.
If I keep gnawing away at my thumbs at my current pace, they’ll be gone within a few days.
3 months removed from my tonsillectomy and I still haven’t regained any of the 20 pounds that I lost - not for a lack of trying.
I’m spending a lot of time trying to...
