Who is Aergia?
In Greek mythology, Aergia is the personification of sloth, idleness, indolence and laziness. I was looking to see if there were a god of procrastination. Must be me. Not long after I bought the truck (I've owned it two years), it would have periods where it wouldn't crank. I'd have to jam the shifter deeper … Continue reading Who is Aergia?
Getting Fit
It's been a good month for working out. I increased my lift weight all around. But also twinged my back. Not bad. Just sore. I wasn't minding my form a few weeks ago and instead of giving things a break, I kept going. I figured I'd have a week off PTO, why not rest up … Continue reading Getting Fit
A fine week for vacation
I took the week off. Maximize PTO by using a week with a holiday. Great idea. Get a load of this: Maybe I get to do something cool like kayaking, or a hot rod bike trip Friday. It's grumbling thunder as I type this. Aria is curled up in my closet. Every time it cleared … Continue reading A fine week for vacation

...and everyone knows it. Many, many others have weighed in on the Biden prostate cancer thing. I can't add anything other than it's more bullshit lying. They must think we're a bit slow, eh? I mean it's not like nearly every guy in the country hasn't had PSA tests, and even the finder up the … Continue reading It’s All Bullshit…
Can’t hear Nuthin’
I'm old. I can't hear for crap. What happens is that if there is someone talking, and at the same time someone around me is having a side conversation, I can't concentrate on either. This happens in Church, when the old biddies behind me start yammering to each other. Can't hear a word the priest … Continue reading Can’t hear Nuthin’

Go Towards the Light
I've spent all week screwing with my new work laptop. Most of my frustration is based on company policies and a feckless Helpdesk. It was supposed to automatically restore based on the backup from my old laptop. It did. They put a 'restored files' folder on my desktop. I didn't have delete permissions. So all … Continue reading Go Towards the Light
