Writing Update: April 2025

A friend pointed out to me that it’s been a good long while since I posted a writing update on my blog. He wasn’t wrong, and seeing as how the whole point of this blog started out as a way for me to talk about my writing . . . yeah. I need to do […]

Hair Free at Last

Saturday was the big day. Not that I’d been planning it for a long time or anything, but I realized my patience with my long hair was finally getting nearer and nearer its breaking point, so it wasn’t too surprising to me when I woke up Saturday morning and knew enough was enough. Denisa helped […]

Level 20 Father

It was Tomas’s 20th birthday yesterday. (How did we celebrate? He’s home (yay!), so we’d planned on doing a bit of a party, but he got sick as soon as he got home, so we’ve pushed that off a bit.) It only occurred to me yesterday that each birthday he has also marks the anniversary […]

Adventures in Boston

A few months ago, Denisa and I were looking for a time to go down to Boston to take Michaela to the temple for her first time. We had hoped to be able to go with a group in January, but that didn’t pan out, so we wanted to be sure to get there soon, […]

Sidestepping Away from Facebook

Howdy, folks. I’ve been thinking a lot the past couple of days about Facebook and my mental health. For the past while, I’ve been more and more fed up with the sort of environment Facebook fosters. I have many friends on their whom I really value and enjoy connecting with. And then I have people […]

Balancing Religion and Trump

This past weekend, I was up in Bangor Saturday and Sunday at Stake Conference. It’s a regional church meeting where members of multiple congregation from the area come together for instruction and a worship service. We had a visiting General Authority (someone from the international leadership level of the church) come to speak to us […]

Media Diet for 4.14.25

I skipped last for reasons, but I’m back this week with some new things I’ve been watching and reading. Let’s cut right to the chase, because I’m short on time. (Story of my life at the moment.) Television: Dark Season 1: This sci-fi show on Apple TV was . . . intriguing. It’s a multiverse […]

AI as Personal Trainer

Hi. Me again. It feels like I come to blog these days mainly just to bemoan the state of the world, tell you what I’ve been reading or watching, and talk about AI. Well, today’s an AI day again. 🙂 I’m still plugging away at the iOS app I’m trying to make. As of today, […]

I’m Exhausted

I’m exhausted. It feels like gravity increased on earth a few months ago, and ever since then, it’s been a slog just to get through the day. It’s not that things are going wrong for me personally. For the most part, things are actually pretty good. My kids are doing well. I’m relatively healthy once […]

AI vs Essay Mill: The Need to Shift Beyond Traditional Freshman Comp in College

In today’s freshman comp class, I presented two papers on the same topic students are being asked to write on right now. I found one of them by doing a search on Google. It was on a site that offers papers for sale. You pick the topic, and they provide the paper. It was a […]
