Daily Prompt 5/2/23
It was Aladdin back in March, if we are talking about the theatre. If we are talking concerts, that would be the lineup of Joan Jett, Poison, Def Leppard, and Motley Crue last July. If it’s instrumental music, that would be the All-City concert that Boy #3 was in awhile back. I like live everything…

Daily Prompt 5/1/23
This is an interesting question. There’s a lot of jobs I’d love to try for just one day, but the one I would choose for the purposes of this question is engineer. I just want to see if it would be a good fit for me. It was never something I considered that I would…

People I admire and look to for advice…this is a moving target for me because my life is such a strange collection of completely different things, the list grows and shrinks as time goes on. But no matter what, my number one is my wife. I admire her for a million and one different reasons…

It’s true and very important for me to remember when I am getting all intense about something that really isn’t…

The last time I took a risk was being very blunt with Parents #2 about how to interact with their own child. I was concerned that they might think less of me but I knew that the only way they could continue building their relationship with The Ex. There had been so much hurt and…

Moving to be with my wife. I knew her in college. We had been friends on FB for years, sometimes messaging for awhile over a period of days. But always supporting each other. After she lost her husband, I became her best source of support as we messaged every day. We messaged all day, every…

One time on a deployment, I was enjoying a final drink with some coworkers who had become great friends. We were celebrating our deployment and how we had managed to not kill anyone. To my left was this weird group of guys who were laughing and hollering. They would be quiet and leaning into something,…
