Well, this is embarrassing. Also added archived posts.
(It seems I have a lot of blog posts about how I don’t blog. Oh well, I can handle it.) So, I posted a little over a year and half ago that 2013 was the Year of Living Creatively and the Year of Finishing Things. Fail! #fail I didn’t do it. I watched a lot…

I finally got an iPad!
Seriously, I’ve been wanting one ever since they first announced, but I’ve talked myself out of buying one every year. They are just too dang expensive. They were to dang expensive, that is. This wonderful combination of a great job with great pay, along with a great offer from AT&T, means that this iPad I…

Resolutions 2013
Like most people that I know, I make New Year’s Resolutions every year. And, like most people that I know, I fail to keep them. Every year. What bothers me about this is that these “resolutions” are usually things that I *want* to do. I mean, sometimes my resolutions are about what I think I…

Launching CosmicDogOnline (for real this time) (maybe)
I am not a good blogger (clearly), but that doesn’t mean that I can’t be. I have a wide range of technical skills and I am a professional writer (for what that’s worth), so this blogging thing is definitely something that I can do. That being said, I have no expectation that this blog/site will…

I suck at blogging
There, I said it. Now you don’t have to. This isn’t unusual. Most people suck at blogging, especially people with blogs. However, I pay for this site every month and I don’t use it. That’s bad. What makes it worse is that I actually have interesting things to say. My life, especially since I’ve launched…

Homeless
I was going to wait awhile to talk about this, but now seems like a good time. I’ve decided to be homeless. Well, it wasn’t one hundred percent my idea, I’ve been out of work for over two years, excepting the occasional writing gig. For the last few months, I’ve been staying with friends, but,…

iPad
Apple will start selling the iPad 2 on Friday and I want one, of course, but I can’t really afford it. They start at $500, just like the 1st Gen iPad did. The problem is, the more I look at my life and how I work, I realized that I *need* one. Maybe not an…

Welcome to CosmicDog Online
For many years, I used my TypePad blog for both personal and business activities. It worked well enough, since freelance writing and editing jobs were not high on my priority list and the bulk of my online time was devoted to personal expression. Recently, however, through my association with a new website called The Geekery…

‘Be In Love With Your Life’, or ‘How I Spent My Spring and Summer’
Jack Kerouac said "Be in love with your life." Jesus (as in, The Christ) said "The man who loves his life will lose it, while the man who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life." (John 12:25 NIV) These two things seem to be diametrically opposed. If that were the…

Not up to posting anything today
My stomach and head hurt, I may be sick or I may have just eaten the wrong thing. Either way, I don't feel like sitting at my computer or tapping away at my phone tonight. And that's all I have to say about that.
