Okay, some original thoughts...I read the books before the series came out. Landsdale is th eTexas version of Stephen King, I won't say everything is bigger in Texas, but Joe R. holds his own and that is more than enough to make him worth reading.

And the actor playing Hap, is the badass form 'The Wire', the one who robbed the dealers and played Robin Hood with the money.

 Do not be ALARMED! There is nothing wrong with your picture and this man is not 'Special'. He just isn't very attractive. When you look at anyone, even that person n the mirror, remember none of us had the opportunity to pick the way we look and if we did, we'd all be a bunch of hansom devils....no one asked us if we wanted to be pretty, because we'd all say 'Yes!'

Oh, you noticed my hat. It is one I've kept up with for several years now....

I'm writing with my Official St. Pat's hat on It is a green bowler I picked up at the Dollar Store. I put some TAMU duct tape as a headband.. Glued on a joker from some old deck of cards. And perched on top, a tiny green lizard, perched ready to spit in your fucking eye.

 Pay attention! I'm going to browse these pictures I thought enough of to save but not sure I'd share with just everybody....just those that want to know the real me. No contact, please. Part of my charm is being alone (never lonely).

 The turtle and the hare....Willie just kept it show and steady gets the job done.

STOP! I want to insert more personal information....

Oops...upside-down...a gift...big old Fire Tablet...love it.....

We are all lost but what a grand day it will l be when when we are found…..I feel lost and for the most part, I’ve managed to hold it together. It’s all new, new to me, like they say about buying used stuff. ‘New car”?” “New to me!”....THat lack of familiarity is what keeps the pits of our stomachs and the attention of our mind. Thinking it over and over until we tire of it and swing the opposite way….not giving a Fuck.  It seems the world is stuck in the hard-line, not giving a fuck mode. Hell, if we’re no better than ants, then our individuality may be what drives our society, everyone looking out for themselves, mostly everybody, there are a few selfless souls.

I, unfortunately, am not one of them.

I am one of ‘them’...Who are them?.... ‘them’ are the Bloggers on the internet who are obsessed with studying. Yes, a lot of high school seniors in that mix. They take pictures of their desks, journals, and cups of coffee/tea precariously balanced on a white bed cover. Always white. I spill coffee when I even try and hold a up over the bed. I set it next to my leg, all safe and secure...zone out and move the leg pouring the wet liquid through all the layers of bedding. A fucking mess. And While I’m at it, I’ll say I can't have a glass of anything on the bedside table without it having a lid I spill it. Every trucking time. And then I’m wiping out drawers and wiping off coffee from all the crap I keep in the drawers No, Rule for Mike...no glasses on the bedside table and no setting coffee down on the bed .

I digress...

This is the wide shot of my 'study' space....

Wide ass view, you can see the printer/scanner on the far left by the equally wide ass computer case.

My dogs sleep under the desk and we look out onto the street...keeping watch....

Chair is more comfortable than it looks.

The bookshelf is full...full of good shit.

Toys on the window blinds. For the child inside.

...finish this up as I finish my grilled cheese and iced coffee. I set my morning coffee cup beside the coffeemaker just in case I want myself an iced coffee.

A disgraced lawyer, now an ambulance chaser, gets a case that could bring him redemption or at least revenge on the firm which expelled him.




Me: This is the exact picture, the ending of the second series, that really nailed it for me. Nailed it as in 'put a nail in the coffin' because I was through with thei sseries way before the end. The amputations and ombnipresent cartels...it all go to be too nuch...or, not enough. I got so tired of him  smoking one cigarette after another like he was letting me in his inner thoughts. It sucked. Movign on because there is a lot to look at these days.

If I can’t be relevant, I can at least be accurate. What the fuck am I talking about? I am talking about writing. I can’t keep feeling inadequate, guilty of wasting time, because my stories and commentary are not publishable. I repeat: I write for myself. Writing is a personal dialog. It’s a way to focus. Writing is also a way of recording what is happening in my life. It may not be interesting but by gawd, it’s going to be accurate.

It’s not even eight in the morning and I brought my second cup of coffee into the office. So eager to get my thoughts out, I booted up the Chromie rather than the main Battle Station. Let me do that now...I put a credit card over the janky touchpad so I can write with abandon and not have my own thumb play a trick on me by relocating the cursor during a rant. Loving the cordless mouse I ‘found’ at work (and thin round mousepad at the same time). The pad fits inside the Chromie  when it’s closed, no problem.

Last week I did quite a bit of blogging ...only didn’t get to my NSFW site. It will be first...hell, this will go right in it. I just got anxious to get started and once I realized I probably should of used the computer, I was committed to the Chromie. I am a stubborn cuss but in the long run, staying the course has served me better than constantly changing to get an advantage. Finish. It is the goal. Do that. Sometimes finding a better way to do something is just a convenient excuse.

The days have been overcast. If the clouds rain, it’s early in the morning because the day’s heat cooks all the water out of the clouds. The clouds do drop the temperature some. I finally got a chance to sit b y the pool yesterday, half day at work, and it was hot, the sun beat down on me. I sat in the shallow ind most of the time under a big straw hat reading a John Sandford novel.

Okay, edit this and get to blogging!

 Hope he comes down all right, good luck Pedro!
