In Which I Make a Fool of Myself for a Good Cause

https://polyploid.net/blog/?p=rzwmoja Tomorrow is it. With all my crazy health problems of late, I haven’t done anywhere close to the fundraising I hoped to do, but regardless — tomorrow I’ll be golfing 50 holes. Again due to the health stuff, I haven’t been to a driving range, so my first golf swing attempt will be on the course tomorrow. Yikes. 🙂 What … Read more

Advances in BirdTopia

https://www.completerehabsolutions.com/blog/sckkh71i4 I warned you I’d be posting about birds. 🙂 One of the problems with having BirdTopia so close to my office window, is that when I move, it scares the birds away.

Just Call Me Chronic

Today is a brand new day. Well, ok, it’s not really brand new, it’s been around for a while as it’s after 2PM. Still, it’s the newest day we have.

Perhaps that’s true, but since that is depressing and impossible to fix, I decided to declare it a total lie. And now it’s on the Internet, so … Read more

The Obligatory Resolutions Post

https://sugandhmalhotra.com/2024/08/07/ypeu1lh7h I’m normally not a fan of New Year’s resolutions. You never hear anything thing about them after about January 2nd, and they’re often unrealistic and too general. As it happens, I’m actually at a point that I need to make some major changes, and I’m also at the point that I actually realize it. It’s the perfect storm of resolution-making. … Read more

Do Something Silly Day 7

https://blog.extraface.com/2024/08/07/3ht55pqxxqn Yesterday I was sick, so I didn’t post anything silly. I suppose when I tried to calm my upset stomach by eating leftover Indian food it could be considered silly, but I decided to do (2) silly things today. Here is the first. 🙂 I gotta say, purposefully doing something silly every day has been AWESOME. Even if you don’t … Read more
