3 times a charm? Or an Omen?
So I came home from work the other night and it wasn’t dark yet. I pull into a space close to the gated door of my building. I look up and what do I see? Someone has crashed into the wall surrounding the complex. I know I moved into an old condo complex, and I […]
Do you know where your pipes are?
So I went out of town to bask on the beach in Cozumel for a weekend. It just happened before a deep freeze swept Texas. I stepped off the plane and it was colder than a well-digger’s ass outside. I got home and despite leaving the heat on it was too late, my kitchen faucets […]
A place to live finally….
Well, it’s been a while since I wrote. That air mattress I bought came in handy as did the camping chair. No, I didn’t end up homeless in a campground but I know my family was taking bets on how long it would take before I did. Well, it’s been over four months since I […]
Can’t I just live in a hotel?
I just bought a pillow and a wine opener. I’m living in an air B and B It’s all I can do in my reintegration to life in the US. Since returning to the USA, I’ve found myself in car hell, apartment hell and sadly fighting the urge to leave every day. It took weeks […]
What’s your T style?
Do you have low Ts? No this is not an ad for a low testosterone clinic. Today I went with a friend to a local psychic fair where you will find so-called readers and psychics and Reiki people and those that read dreams and talk to animals. Every time I go to a psychic fair, […]

Traveling Alone
Things are never like they seem So people wonder why I travel alone sometimes. It’s because I like it. I like the challenges, I like to figure shit out for myself. Sometimes I run into issues, but most of the time things go almost according to plan. Sometimes. But in truth, if I screw up […]
Just be happy they said
OK, so you guys know that I finally came home to the United States after living almost two years in Spain. I was a language auxiliary, (language assistant) helping to teach English to children three and a half days a week. It was a sweet deal working only 16 hours a week, a $1000 monthly […]
Bubbles from Heaven
So I took a trip to Turkey, Istanbul to be exact. I chose Istanbul because it was cheaper to go there as a long stopover and since Ide had never been there I thought it would be fun. And yall know me; any chance to travel to a new place, especially someplace somewhat exotic was […]
How to walk backward in an all-nude thermal spa.
As part of my last few trips when leaving Spain I decided to visit Baden- Baden Germany; a famous thermal spa town near the French border and part of the black forest. I wanted to try the famous “fully naked” Roman baths there called “Friedrichsbad.” I wanted to see if it would relax me and […]
