  • We’re all on the same team!

    We’re all on the same team!

    Everybody needs to chill out and stop putting up divisions! Even subtle or small ones. It’s destructive. We as a species can’t move forward with big issues because we’re so taken with the small stuff which aren’t even actual problems! It’s something we’ve made up, or it’s a social taboo. We’re all on the same…

  • I should write these things during the daytime.

    For the past several weeks, I have written a new blog post every single day. But the time I’ve spent writing those posts has been very minimal. Should that change? Maybe. To find out, let’s journey back a couple of weeks. I started posting daily with the main goals of forcing myself to think creatively…

  • You’re amazing!

    You are a beautiful person. Don’t believe that? Well, I do. And if you can’t believe it, then try to believe that I believe it. Are you not feeling loved? Put some love out there. Share some hugs with your family and friends! If you love someone, tell them. Get excited about it! Believe it!…

  • The sun will rise…

    Or it won’t. We don’t know for sure. But we trust that it will. We have faith that it will. It’s reliable. Unless clouds ruin it. M3

  • Washing Dishes

    Washing Dishes

    Let me tell you something. Washing dishes is one of those activities that I hate and love at the same time. Why I kinda like washing the dishes. It doesn’t take too much thinking to accomplish this task, which is the biggest draw for me. I can listen to audio drama, or podcasts, or even…

  • Stars

    Stars

    Staring at the night sky, I feel lucky. To witness such a truly wondrous site. Giant orbs of burning gas. Uncountable numbers of them. So unfathomably far away. Some of the light is ancient. Travelling hundreds or even thousands of years to reach my eyes. Not all of the stars I see even exist anymore. It…

  • Distance

    I have so many very good friends. They are all over the map and from completely different walks of life. It’s really amazing, and I’m very blessed by all of these people in my life. The only slight downside is distance. I don’t get to hang out with many of my friends these days, especially…

  • Pirate milk. It’s a thing.

    Pirate milk. It’s a thing.

    I mentioned here once before that when I was younger, I started calling chocolate milk “pirate milk”. It was mostly because I’m silly like that, but also partly because our family ran a day home at the time, and the kids liked the name. Pirate milk because chocolate is like gold, and Pirates like gold,…

  • Shampoo Day

    Shampoo Day

    It happened again. I got carried away and didn’t write a new post until the last minute. I just finished watching Rogue One with Ryan and he suggested that I write about a mundane activity from my everyday life. But that’s kinda boring. So I’m going to write about something that happens less frequently than every day.…

  • Little adventure

    I like adventure. I especially like adventure in the great out-of-doors! Like going on a big river trip or camping through BC. But sadly, adventure like that doesn’t happen every day. (For the most part…) To deal with the lack of “big adventure” in my everyday, I look for “little adventure”; which is very similar to…

  • Creatively energized!

    This past week, we, the patrons of Blimey Cow, released the first episode of our new podcast, The Cowmoonity Fancast. It’s been over a month in the making and I’m really quite pleased with how it turned out! Especially the music! Which is kinda what this post is about. In the past few weeks I’ve been having…

  • Okay, it’s been long enough…

    I keep thinking about this blog. Especially recently. I keep wishing that I could post regularly on it. And then I realize that I can. I just have to follow some simple advice from our great friend Shia LaBeouf. 😉 For me, this past year has been about jumping in and just doing whatever. If…
