  • Going with the Flow.

    Maybe one of these weeks, I’ll stop being so proud of my ability to just go with the flow, but it’s not happening yet. It’s a pretty big deal for me to just release my tight grip on wanting to make things go a certain way and instead go with the way the wind blows,…

That is how everyone should feel about every city on Earth.” “Armageddon in Retrospect” by Kurt Vonnegut Slowly, but surely, my…

  • The 100 Books Project: Mother Night

    “Mother Night” by Kurt Vonnegut My exposure to Vonnegut is severely lacking. I have only read three of this many works, and “Mother Night” was one of them. In fact, “Mother Night” was supposed to be the big one, as the thing that finally got me to pick up Vonnegut as I had been wanting…
