What I’m writing: Yesterday’s two crappy pages involved some journaling.

It seems quite fitting that I have developed a head cold on the eve of my 50th birthday. Things … are not going well at the moment. I think this Summer of Overwhelming Grief is getting to me. I tell myself to hold on, that things will change because they always have in the past. That gets rather old sometimes.

Would you please help a brutha out? I’ve created a weekly eNewsletter called News-B-Nuts in which I’ll be sending out news nuggets and witty commentary to subscribers. If you can, would you support this endeavor for just $5 a month via Patreon?
