Ha! Sorry, I couldn’t resist. Caught your eye, though, right? No, this isn’t a riff (raff) on the Rocky Horror Picture Show, but it is another travel down memory lane. And, if it’s between Al Stewart or Rocky Horror, that’s not a fair competition. So, let’s do the time warp again. A Christmas carol It’s… Read more »
There was a time I used to enjoy shopping. Particularly holiday shopping. This was long before I became a hermit. Even before the burgeoning online shopping phenomenon. Yet, today, as I see more and more holiday ads, I feel a little pang. Perhaps I am missing the retail madness. Way back when We haven’t dusted… Read more »
Welp, I threatened it a couple of months ago. And now I finally pulled that trigger. Does it represent a danger to a person with my obsessive traits? Sure. But, I think it’s a mild obsession to have. In any case, when it comes to resisting this obsession, the jig is up. So, when I… Read more »

Of course, teen years also brought graduation from high school and then college, living away from… Read more »
Or, more precisely, out of space. As I recently mentioned, I’ve given up on trying to read via an e-reader (in my case, a Kindle). That leaves me in an untenable position, however.
