A throwback to eight years ago when Roman decided to give us a heart attack. (That wall overlooks the stairway to our downstairs which from that spot is about a 10-12 foot drop.)

Sitting outside with some iced coffee. And being carefully supervised.

Today is an X-Files inspired "holiday."

When you're laying in bed in the middle of the night not sleeping and hear strange noises outside you look at the time in case the police question you later about something strange you heard... Right? No? Just me? ok. Move along home. Nothing to see here. (Bonus points if you get the gif reference.)

Finally cracking open my Streetscape books and Blackwing colored pencils that I got some time ago from Field Notes. Was in the mood to doodle. (Doodle in progress...)

"Bashful Bird" Yep! It's another animal photo from me. They were a little shy, but we made it work. #Art #Photography #Animals #Parrot

Kitchen plastic wrap is pure evil to work with.

Frank is such an adorable weirdo.

Temperature regulation engaged.

Not the best photo but it's not often they are all in one place.

We are at that part of spring where the windows are open and you play the ever popular game of "Is that a skunk or weed???" while trying to fall asleep.

It's so nice outside. Came out to do some reading and puzzles for the afternoon. Spent this morning job hunting and sent in three applications.

I think I'm more of a disembrained body.

Lunch meeting.

The kid ringing me up at Dunkin' just gave me the senior citizen discount. So I have that going for me. (I'm not even 50 yet.)

"What I want is for us to live in mortal fear of doing something wrong." --Kevin Moretti (TV show ER) Words I seem to live by. Though I don't recommend it.

Leo (left) was a single baby (the others in his litter didn't make it) to a feral mother. So he had a bit of a rough start and to this day is still a nervous boy. Jack (right) taught Leo how to cat when he was a kitten and they remain great friends. :)

I like jalapeno cream cheese on my bagels. My wife doesn't like that kind of cream cheese. So I can leave all the toast crumbs that I want in there. But I don't. Because I'm not a psychopath. 🥸

"Old Technology" Last night's doodle. #Art #Illustration #Doodle #Drawing

The buzz word for 2026 is protein.

Not a care in the world.

Another fabulous show in the books with Jill Hennessy last night in NYC. Great stories, amazing songs, and an all around fantastic human and artist. ❤️

I understand that during a snow event it's frustrating if the plows come through and block your driveway with more snow after you've cleared it. But honestly... What are they supposed to do? I see people get so pissed off by it but are they supposed to stop and plow the end of each driveway clean?

"Greetings, Earthlings." 🛸

I lay in bed not sleeping and thinking about all the things I could be doing. But I know if I get up I'll just eat snacks and watch TV.

People talk about whether cursive should be taught in school or not. But does anyone besides me remember learning the D'Nealian Method?

Jack... The happy napper.

I think I have developed a callus on my left pinky finger because of the way I hold my sudoku puzzle books. I thought it was a winter dry skin thing but I don't think so. Well then... Does that mean I spend too much time on sudoku? 🤔

Tackled a small project to organize some art supplies... Before and after.

The audio in this video doesn't do them justice. It was LOUD. 😳

Wishing for you all a big, fuc*ing robust Panettone. Toast it! Butter it! Savor it! And may we all push forward courageously into 2026!

Our power just went out. Merry Christmas? 🎄

I have been wearing the same perfume since I was 16 years old. I know... Weird? Right? But whatever... It appears to now be discontinued. Sigh. 🫤

My biggest accomplishment this year was getting my first cavity. At 48 years old. 🦷🤷

There is a wifi access point near me named: It Hurts When IP

I still feel very anonymous here. Like no one will see me post about the $x,ooo emergency plumbing day we had. Followed by the I shouldn't be spending money on these cocktail days. I mean... WTF.

The "report job" function on LinkedIn is a placebo button.

Check out my friend's Etsy shop... She makes these adorable 3D printed parrot ornaments for the holidays. So cute! She also has a lot of other awesome stuff in her shop. www.etsy.com/listing/4350...

Our groceries are being delivered by Elvis today. 🎵🎶🎸🎤

Can confirm.

This is Frank. He's a professional slacker.

A heart breaking day in our house yesterday. We had to say good bye to our Blossom baby boy. We will forever miss this lovable, doofy, sweet gray boy. 13 1/2 years was not enough time. ❤️❤️❤️

Enjoy reliving my past of working near Times Square.

'Sup?

Hello, October.
