I've added an audio component to the website. The first two of the year are simply reading a blog post, but later on it'll feature commentary.

Groundhog Day Resolution 2026
I don’t do New Year’s resolutions: I’ve tried and they never stuck. Truth be told, I have attempted GHD resolutions a total of thirteen times and they never stuck. But this year, this year will be different, I swear! Attempting…
31
They say the first 31 days of the year are the hardest and I agree. It isn't easy to maintain fitness discipline in January but by golly, I have done it. Now to close out the remaining 334 days with…
Well This Is New
Somewhere along the way a switch flipped. I bought an air fryer so eating well doesn’t feel like a punishment or a project. This should help me eat better and save less in the long run. At Costco, I loaded…
Eleven
My last post of 2025 was dedicated to the 164 books I acquired in 2025. Here it is, the 10th of January and I have already collected 11 titles added to the ever-growing Catalog. More books than days it seems.
Audio Denbow
I’ve reached the point where I’m done pretending I’m okay with renting my own music taste. If I don’t physically (and digitally) have the music files, I don’t actually own anything. Streaming is convenient, sure, but it’s fragile as hell.…
Denbow Decimal System
Over the years, my archive outgrew folders, tags, and good intentions. Writing, notes, drafts, photos, references, half-finished ideas, and finished ideas pretending they weren’t finished yet. Everything piled up. Search helped. Tags helped. But neither answered a simple question. What…
Shelved Evidence of a Restless Mind
Over the past year, my personal library has grown fast and in unexpected directions. Not because I set out to build some impressive-looking wall of spines, but because curiosity kept dragging me down new paths and I let it. This…
Change Log
The past week has been dedicated to acknowledge the previous 25 years worth of writing here and then quickly archiving it. The slate has been cleaned and the website underwent a massive transformation as a result. New database, new HTML…
Multicursal
Previously I wrote about uncertain paths but felt compelled to explore it again. There are some paths we can decide to walk on, and there are some that show up along the way we weren’t expecting. Understanding which paths to…
The Path Less Understood
There are some paths we can decide to walk on, and there are some that show up along the way we weren't expecting. Understanding which paths to take and seeing where they could go is what keeps me going forward.
The Next Twenty-Five
Twenty-six years online. Everything before today has been archived where it belongs. This is a new page and a new era. The past is preserved. The future starts here. I’m rebuilding with intent and curiosity.
Not A Quitter
Leaving behind something that worked for awhile to pursue something different takes courage. It isn't quitting. It is a pivot to something more beneficial. I have been an active user of the internet since 1995 and have left massive breadcrumbs…
Things Can Only Get Better?
Websites and social media platforms are getting aggressive in the monetizing of their services because- who knew that providing a platform for free is not sustainable? No one wants online advertising either and we all live with it because these…
Time Off
It has been a little over a month since stepping away from my website- I needed the break. Before dusting off the HTML code though, I've had some time to reflect on a few things including my participation on the…
