Our Japanese maple, post de-twigging. I adore the Japanese Maple behind our house. Each fall it drops every leaf and winters as a crazy straw look alike. As it begins to bud each spring, we deadhead it by flicking off its dead twigs. I’m not much of a gardener, but even I know that breaking…

Photo by Jordan Butler on Unsplash You’ve probably heard this at some point in your life (my introduction came courtesy of my offensive line coach in high school): Don’t ASSUME, it makes an ASS out of U and ME. While not assuming what a defensive lineman is going to do on a particular play is way past…

Yawning on a Sunday Afternoon — #SoCS
Let's hope you're not doing this while reading! Photo by Tim Bish on Unsplash I'm yawning as I write this. I stayed up late last night watching Deadpool 2 again (something I'll probably do again). That was after watching Bohemian Rhapsody, which was not a yawner at all. Today's Stream of Consciousness Saturday's (on a Sunday) prompt was,…

Gently and . . . Glen Campbell? A Stream of Consciousness Saturday Post
Gently. Do not go gently into that good night. Huh, "gentle" does sound better there. Today's prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday was any adverb ending in "ly". Since I couldn't think of any one in particular, I found a random adverb generator on the the Google machine and, voila, 'gently." Other than the saying…

Booger Holler and Grandparents #SoCS
Booger Holler! That was the first thing that popped into my head from Friday's SoCS (now also on a Sunday -- at least on this blog!) prompt. Ahem, from the lovely and talented Linda G. Hill: Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “empty/hollow.” Use one, use both, entirely up to you. Enjoy!…

John Denver and Animal House, #SoCS
Well, life on the farm is kindof laid back, ain't nothing that a country boy like me can't hack. Early to rise, early in the sack. Thank God, I'm a country boy. [Damn, just looked up the lyrics before posting, I was almost spot-on] Can't believe I know those lyrics. I don't think I've heard…

I Love You, Honey Bunny #SoCS
I love Pulp Fiction. It's one of my all-time favorite moves. I've probably watched it – in whole or in part – 50 times by now. A favorite memory is watching it stoned out of my gourd at Bethesda Draft House (I think that was the name, closed now) and loving the Travolta driving seen…

The Beginner’s Mind – So Hard to Keep
I've been a fan of @gapingvoid for years. Love this drawing for today. As you develop any sort of knowledge, it's hard to keep a fresh look at an old topic. I find this especially hard when it comes to writing sometimes. It's easy to become jaded and think, "ugggg, people should already KNOW this…

So Far Away — #SoCS
So far away. Isn't that a song? Far away, but you're so, far away . . . by Carol, oh, shoot. Dammit. Refusing to look it up. From the album Tapestry. Shitshitshit. Grrrr, damn memory. It's Stream of Consciousness time and today's prompt, via Linda Hill is: so far. Now that I've got that fragment…
