I checked my mail when I got home from work and found a campaign flyer for Trump. They know the election is over, right?
I have a lot of baritone in my voice, which served me well during my radio DJ days (in the 90s). Back in mid October I was told I have asthma (even though I've never had noticeable symptoms) and given a daily inhaler. Within 5 days it fucked up my voice (I sounded like RFK) and I quit using it. My voice still hasn't fully...

Back in early October I was diagnosed with Diabetes type 2. Not surprising considering how bad my diet was. Since then, I've cut most carbs and red meat from my diet. I've reduced the amount I've been eating too and it's paying off. Most diabetic people I know have been telling me that I don't need such a strict diet and I can cheat occasionally...

What is it about middle age that makes being sick feel worse than it really is? A couple years ago, I would pop a couple dayquil and go about my day. Now I have to fight off that "guy with a cold" stereotype and remind myself that I've had worse. I don't get it.
I've been tired all day and I know that around 3am, when I normally go to bed, I'll be wide awake. That's the Murphy's Law way!
Last fall, an old friend and I were talking about radio stations we listened to in our youth. She listened to KS104.3 in Denver (which later became KS107.5) We talked about making mixtapes and how she missed listening to KS104.

I still have a huge collection of CD’s & cassettes in my basement but rarely go into them. Playlists on Spotify are easy enough & you can send links to your friend? Steve Van Zandt (Little Steven) does a cool radio show to check out! https://www.undergroundgarage.com/

@skisby We went with mixtapes on purpose. I could have thrown them on CD, but we figured tapes would be a little more retro. :) I've been making the J-card inserts to go with them. The last one I sent was made to look like the "now that's what I call music" CD covers.

As my apartment building is vibrating from the thunder, my phone alerts me that "thunderstorms expected in the next few hours." Well no shit.
When I took the motorcycle rider course in the summer of 2022, I was just looking to gain a new skill. After the course, I wanted to get a bike to hone that skill. I love the look of vintage motorcycles and was stoked to find this 1982 last fall. It hadn't been on the road since 1992. I bought it and took it to...

Awesome!!
I made chicken fricassee for lunch this week. I've never had it and it's pretty good. The flavor wasn't as in your face as I had expected. I sliced up the thighs before cooking because it's just easier for work.
