Okay, we're ready to do this. It's 8:15 p.m., Hillbilly Standard Time, and those were pretty good ribs. I just pounded out a thousand words on honky-tonk royalty, so I don't know if I'm even going to try hitting 500 words. I'm getting that weird throbbing behind my ears that would almost feel like one … Continue reading Sunday, February 16, 2020 →

Give Me A Minute

Going to run a little late tonight. No fear, though. I got some neat stuff for you from the Tumblr site. Just got to get it finished up. Plus, I got ribs coming, so, yeah. Wired-&-inspired, though, so I got a good feeling about this. It's 6:30 p.m. Hold tight, be with you in a … Continue reading Give Me A Minute →

Well, shoot. Another day where I really don't have anything kicking around my noggin screaming and clawing to get out. Ah, but we persevere and the Work must be done. I don't really understand why. I'm in a fairly decent mood, if that sort of exhausted tired that I can't figure out where it comes … Continue reading Saturday, February 15, 2020 →

So, it's Valentine's Day. Does anyone really like Valentine's Day? I mean, beyond the people making money off it, like candy makers and romantic restaurants, they must love it. But most you see is either people moaning about being single on V-Day or MRA dudes getting their knickers in a twist because that's what they … Continue reading Friday, February 14, 2020 →

The temperature's dropped significantly and it seems the rain is done with us until Tuesday or so. Around Jackson and the Pearl River, as well as near Lake Oktebbeha there's worries of the dam there bursting once everything finishes running downstream. Here in Enon Holler, though, all we have to worry about is drying out soon enough to … Continue reading Thursday, February 13, 2020 →

A little insight on how all this goes down if you'll indulge. I try to get this done every evening by no later than 8 p.m. Much like the 500-word count, it's an arbitrary rule more than anything else. Since no one's paying me, I'll do as I like, of course. That being said, I … Continue reading Wednesday, February 12, 2020 →

Well, it's still raining, alternating between misting and pissing down, but always raining. It's cold and grey, and the world is getting increasingly weird. Not in the fun, cool "man, that sky is so blue, have you ever thought about hands" kind of weird. A disturbing weird, a weird that doesn't know if you're actually … Continue reading Tuesday, February 11, 2020 →

After two days of sunny relief, the rain is back with a vengeance. It poured so much that the day went from a Mose Allison one straight into a Charles Mingus one. Believe you me, get Mingus out in the country is a pretty fierce rain indeed. We spent the morning put a new front door in with my … Continue reading Monday, February 10, 2020 →

I ain't going to lie, beloved, but I woke up in a foul mood. Whatever cheap funk that's been hanging around since the first of the year kicked me in the teeth this morning. There was all expectations of this being one of those dark, tedious dirges I've been singing lately because I'm not interested … Continue reading Sunday, February 9, 2020 →
