its one of those horrible computer fuck up days ... hours trying to figure out the printer, mac, adapters, wi-fi ... second call to apple ... chose four for no music ... I chose four and get shitty opera ... doesn't instill confidence in the process ... I try to sign up for writing class tonight ... they don't recognize my email , I re sign up and they tell me my e mail is already used by someone - yeah me - they want to know my religion, emergency contact, income, bowel movements, fuck, they want it all and I want to escape but can't - so I try to remain polite to thick hard accents and the jagged process. I hate it and am not sure why I am sharing this with you. maybe just to kill time. not sure. but always always when it rains it pours, right. nothing gets easier as we live better.

Writing about the last time I was with my father - and knew it would be the last time - he was stopping his dialysis after fifteen years. Unsurprisingly, it was anti climatic, wanting, haunting, worth dissecting. I want to get it right. copious reading a...

T he excitement of necessity refers to the paradox that being forced to act out of need can generate a powerful, motivating drive that leads to creativity, innovation, and peak performance . Instead of viewing necessity as a burden, this concept frames it as a source of energy that compels action where mere desire is not enough. The idea is most famously captured by the proverb, "Necessity is the mother of invention," first recorded by the Greek philosopher Plato.
