We are constantly in a state of change and transition. Nothing is permanent, I’m learning. . . slowly. One could argue that a Cirrhotic liver feels pretty damn permanent, but I’m certainly not going to last forever, so I suppose that ultimately proves my point. These last four years have …
“So, most of the people you work with have, or have had, a failing liver?”“Yup.”“So, mostly drunks then? Lots of Cirrhosis and whatnot? Folks like me?”“About half. The other half are Hep C patients.”“Oh. So, clearly we are a very glamorous lot.”“Yup.” And so it went yesterday at my yearly …
So, here we are already one full month into the new year, and almost halfway through the second. Holy moly, my Gramma was right, time does seem to pass at the speed of light with every advancing year. Last week I officially turned another year older and while turning fifty …

If you’re like me you’re following Marty Byrde and his family, friends, and foes through Season Two of the brilliant Netflix series, OZARK. Holy shit balls, it’s intense, isn’t it? I haven’t finished the season yet and I’m reluctant to because I’m not sure my feeble heart can take it. …
I’ve been struggling with unemployment for over a year. I’ve been filling in as a Temp here and there, but nothing has really worked out. Until now. Lemme back up a sec and mention that although I do enjoy a little mystery here and there, I’m not so good with …
I swear you guys, this job search is just getting weirder as time goes by. Suffice to say I am still “out there” and still interviewing and filling out online applications, and my ego and self esteem is responding accordingly. Now one can beat us up like we do ourselves, …
So, here’s something I’ve been wanting to address, but since I haven’t completely found my own voice yet in this matter, I’ve found someone much smarter and infinitely more eloquent to help me to verbalize my own thoughts and beliefs on this subject.
