A Few Thoughts and Memories on MLK Day

Rose City Middle School (formerly Elementary; Credit Google Maps)

Image via Wikipedia I grew up in central Arkansas and for those of you from other places, growing up there is like growing up twenty years in the past. The place never seems to be culturally caught up to the rest of the country. Fashion trends hit there last. Back in high school, I had [...]

Rest In Peace, Mary; You Will Be Missed

Mary Wagoner

I just found out a good friend of mine passed away. Mary Wagoner (@MaryroseWagoner) was introduced to me by a mutual friend fifteen years ago. We worked more projects together than I can count. I helped her with website work, application design, and documentation. She did marketing and PR. The thing about Mary was she [...]

My Struggle with Depression

I've waffled for years about publicly writing about my bout with depression. This article you're reading now has resided in my drafts in some form for about two years now. My depression is there as part of me. It runs in my family and consequently I have had to learn to just deal with it. [...]

Yay! I'm Converted

While taking longer than I wanted, I finally settled on how the site will progress. I decided to move away from PostNuke/Zikula. I've had my hands in PN for many years doing everything from simple to complex sites. I liked where Zikula (the new generation of PN) was going, but it's just not there. Especially [...]

Back to Work

I had to take a small break because of a quick stint in the hospital. It ended up being not serious. Back to work, I guess.

Back

I'm back after a long hiatus dealing with personal issues. As I've noted before, I struggle with cluster headaches. I was in a cycle for the past six weeks. It's very draining and I have to choose work over other stuff since it leaves me without energy and feeling generally crappy. But they are over [...]

I Am Not an Entrepreneur

I had to take a sabbatical from writing. It was longer than I intended and certainly not meant to be permanent. But I needed it. In fact my sabbatical extended out to more than just this site. It all began with my super secret start-up company. I had been working for about two years on [...]

Unrelenting

Back again from another hiatus. I may have to recruit guest bloggers to help me out as my schedule has been out of control lately. Especially this coming summer, I will experience unrelenting day and night work as well as all of the stress it brings. Blech.

Bob Moore

I found out late yesterday a very close friend of my family died. Bob was best friends with my grandfather and he and his wife were a consistent presence at family events. I have old home movies from my early childhood with Bob right there in them. I will always remember him as a friendly, [...]

Clearing the Cob Webs

I'm back from a small hiatus of cluster headache nursing and work overload.
