Oddly enough I find the second in my series looking back on the “good times” of my Navy career to be another moment during my time stationed at VQ-2 in Rota, Spain. Increasing the “coincidence level” is that this moment also occurred during a trip to another part of Europe. I have written in my … Continue reading The Good Times: Finding St. Peter
No Signposts
The unknown frightens; Planning used to rule my life. Now I’ve no signposts. A haiku I wrote titled, appropriately, “No Signposts.” Every military member, regardless of branch of service, shares two unique experiences that civilians will never truly grasp: the moment of putting on the uniform and relinquishing much control over one’s life to a … Continue reading No Signposts

Off Center has been completed. The first part of this challenge is done. But the first part is only the first part. It’s easy to do something once. As any first-time Oscar winner will tell you, the pressure hits immediately: can you do it again or were you a one-hit wonder? I’m already developing the … Continue reading Killing My Next Victim
Leave it to California!
Trigger warning: controversy time as I take a direct shot at the Democratic Party. Need it be said, no the Republicans are not perfect and I think Paul Ryan has proven completely inept as a leader in the House. But at least he is not trying to restrict my actual RIGHTS.

However, my life is not all dark. As I race towards the conclusion of my naval career, I will rest my … Continue reading The Good Times: Beauty and the Beast
I Miss My Standing Desk
I miss my standing desk. I’m serious. I miss it. There is a hole in my life where my standing desk used to be. A void, an eternal pit of black despair mired in the knowledge of the lost freedom and blood flow I used to enjoy while conducting the Navy’s business. Now my khaki-clad … Continue reading I Miss My Standing Desk

I have dealt with a serious fight with depression and anxiety for my entire adult life, and it was not always recognized for what it really was. This left me to muddle along without proper treatment and support for a very long … Continue reading Inner Visions
