Thursday, November 3rd 2022 I am sitting in my ex partner’s kitchen thinking about the end of this World series game number four. Christian Alvarez was taken out of the game after throwing a no-hitter for six innings. The Astros eventually closed out the no-hitter, the second no-hitter in the history of the World series,… Continue reading

Wednesday, November 2nd 2022 It is 3:23 a.m. and I guess this is how I sleep these days. This seems to be a habit. I don’t particularly mind it. I like what it feels like late at night when the world is quiet. These are the most peaceful moments of my life. This is someone… Continue reading

Tuesday, November 1st 2022 It’s 4:00 a.m. and I’m in the office working on this translation about the inept and corrupt follow-up of the 2020 Norilsk Nickel oil spill. I did the translations for the original articles about this as well as some of the follow-ups. This piece is from a different writer but it… Continue reading

Sunday, October 30th 2022. Week 43 It’s 5:15 a.m. and I guess I’m about ready to get back into the world. I feel pretty good. I actually feel a little fat. I did a bit of eating last week. I’m not sure if I’ve come out of it yet but I guess there was a… Continue reading

Thursday, October 27th 2022 4:00 a.m. is not a good time to be awake. 4:00 a.m. when it’s not even going to be daylight for another 4 hours is absolutely the wrong time to be awake. I think the problem is that I just ate too much yesterday. Bullshit stress and a moment of alcoholic… Continue reading

Wednesday, October 26th 2022 It’s 4:30 in the morning. This has not been a sleepless night. Although it took me a while to find my comfort zone, it was actually a night that I passed very peacefully. I’m not up at this hour because of any farmer’s necessity. It’s not going to be light for… Continue reading

Tuesday, October 25th 2022 It’s 5:00 a.m. which I guess is as good a time as any to get started. I’ve actually been up for a while. I guess if you go to sleep really early, you wake up really early. They used to call this farmers’ hours but I think now it would mostly… Continue reading

Monday, October 24th 2022 Ukraine is signing a security agreement. Life is so complex. Truthfully, I genuinely think that if they had such an award, Zelinsky would for sure be MVP amongst the president class. The guys working harder than James Brown these Days. Give credit where credit is due. By comparison, Putin is just… Continue reading
