When you pause to think about it, Thursday is really a strange day in the work week. Consider this:

What am I reading right now? Here are the top three books on my reading shelf:
The Border Collie by Mary Burch
Border Collies by Michael DeVine
Living with a Border Collie edited by Dita Kilsby
If you’re seeing a pattern, that’s because I now have a black and white Border Collie puppy living in my kitchen. His name [...]
Someone found this humble blog while searching for the following phrase:
“a person can wander through time and space yet can still never really find a companion that works before he leaves to have a fool take his place.”

At this store (and through mail order) you can [...]
Sorry I haven’t posted lately. My New York visit is consuming most of my time and all of my energy. I’ve only been able to make scattered notes; there’s no chance of actual writing for the duration. I should get back to my regular grumpy posts again soon.
Okay, I’ve finally finished plowing through my old posts to add tags and categories so that your edification via my gracious thoughts can be more systematic.

This is one of those posts about the blog itself. Sorry to take your time, but I thought it best to spell it out in case you’re just fascinated by all things about this humble blog.
Anyway, I’ve created a few new categories since I thought my originals were a bit generic. The new categories are [...]
A word of note that Young Mr. Brian Keaney of the ever insightful Dreaming in Text blog was the individual who made the one hundredth comment here on this humble blog. You can read his good words here.
As prize for his achievement, Brian receives my high regards and continued devotion to his blog.
Huzzah!
