I am without steam
I am ever drifting through the days. I am tired of where I am. I am tired. I have so many things to do and I think I am nearing the end of life with Vanessa. Although every time I feel this I go on another couple months.
I have …
Chronograph Posts
I write about everyday things here. Mostly to keep track of what happens in my life so I can look back at this all and cringe. I mean, so I can reminisce with nostalgia, and my egg sandwich.
A jam packed day with a little turbulence
Today was a wild experience. A number of things happened which trickle into tomorrow, so some of this will be about new years eve day.
Talking with a disabled vet
This afternoon, as I pull into a parking spot to check the squeal in my engine, an old gentleman approached on a bike wearing a military jacket. He was kind, hard to understand, and curious to help.
He openly talked about having cancer, living on a boat, being harrassed by …
Fort Matanzas National Park
Wow this was cool. Not only is this a strange place, they have a free boat ride over the river and a tour guide to tell you some cool stuff about it.
Matanzas is apparantly a word for slaughters. So there is a whole region here in Florida named after …
Fort Caroline Park
I found this very interesting. Not only have they never located the actual Fort Caroline, the place is presented rather starkly. I felt a general, yup, we killed people a lot vibe which I haven't felt at other memorials/parks like this. None the less it was an interesting walk …
A wild day, and meeting new people
Today I woke up and I recorded the sunrise. I am hoping to make a timelapse out of it. Hard process when you've never done it before. Of course the hardest part being settings, and not making it go fast 😝
Calling in the alarm
While watching the sunrise I heard …
Catching up on writing
I have not written as much or kept up for a few weeks now. Why? Why might you ask? Because it's been FUCKING COLD.
I am in Jax and it's still too cold. What the hell.
I really want to catch up on my past events. Capture the lingering emotions …
My violin is different!
Nut raised and whatnot New Bridge New Bow hair New Strings
The new strings, Zyex, were operatic, harmonious, yet howling. They sound great with legato direct sound. However spiccicato seemed impossible. The strings would squeal with my light touches. It was horrific.
I am backdating this post, but I played …
Gallery 5 art
Tonight was the first friday of november and apparently that is a monthly art night. I've heard of these before. Art galleries open their doors and alcohol is consumed while people roam from gallery to gallery hoping money is spent.
I wasn't feeling too hot. I ended up leaving and …
Halloween Parade in Richmond
I saw a parade. I didn't know what to expect. I thoguht it was just some bicyclists, not a full halloween parade.
Up front in the parade was a transmasculine person on stilts, topless, body painted with a trans flag cape written "Stop killing trans people".
I followed the parade …
Volunteering at an organization
This week I volunteered at an LGBT organization. This was the first time I volunteered like this. I am super glad I did.
It is difficult to know what to write here for I do not want to overshare.
I think I did well. I was given a task which …
Walking the National Mall
Today I walked all around the national mall. It was hard. It is big. And I was tired.
I am backdating this quite far with regrets. But I do remember some things about it worth sharing.
