The dog days or dog days of summer are the hot, sultry days of summer. They were historically the period following the heliacal rising of the star Sirius, which Greek and Roman astrology connected with heat, drought, sudden thunderstorms, lethargy, fever, mad dogs, and bad luck. They are now taken to be the hottest, most uncomfortable part of summer in the Northern Hemisphere.
“What good is the warmth of summer, without the cold of winter to give it sweetness.” – John Steinbeck,

This latest iteration of my rants and rambles will still be much like past versions. I will continue to share way too much information. I will continue to be as weird as always. I am most likely still incredibly boring.

2018/08/30 21:00 As I have gotten older I find that my dreams have gotten smaller. I find myself musing that if I had these smaller dreams in my youth that I might have been happier. Dream big and aim for the stars is really horrible advice for most people. Learn to love what you have and accept what is in your grasp. Peace out my peeps.

2018/09/10 08:00 It was raining pretty steady this morning. My grandson used to look up to me. He is wearing a pretty cool raincoat and he asked me in a very disapproving sort of tone where was my raincoat like I was just about the dumbest person on the face of the Earth. He is so young to have to learn that his heroes have feet of clay.
