Three weeks of glorious vacation time. Three weeks of planned nothingness, perfect laziness and enormous amounts of not-anything-to-do. Except for dinner with friends. Kayaking. Bowling. Theme parks. Good food. And all of the boyfriendly fun. FUN things. Delicious things. Awesome things. And with my second vaccine jab about to kick in – all of thatContinue reading “Body Betrayal”

Saved FROM the bell
There’s one thing I hate more in life than pretty much all of the things I hate (which are plentiful). It’s alarms. Alarm clocks. Sirens. Anything that makes unnecessary shrill sounds that elicits immediate action. I hate it. Having to get up in the morning, knowing that you’ve set your alarm to an indecent time-that-you-don’t-really-wanna-get-up-atContinue reading “Saved FROM the bell”
Resolutionizing – July
People – HOW is July over already? What happened to the summer? I swear we hardly had any! I need more sun. Swimming pools. Spare time. Cocktails. Although, honestly, looking at the grand scheme of things – I can’t complain. Now that July is over I find myself another year older and wiser (or soContinue reading “Resolutionizing – July”
Think twice
It’s not often that you get smacked in the face with a truth so profound that it makes you swallow a whole lot of words you have carelessly said in the past. But it happens. As it did to me, last Friday, on my way home from a match with my carpool buddy. We’d closedContinue reading “Think twice”
Resolutionizing – June
Oh man – How is it time suddenly flying so fast?With the lockdowns and mask-terror ending and work getting EVEN busier (when that shouldn’t be humanly possible – it’s scary to see how little time is actually in a day! Plus, I can honestly say that things are just. going. great. I ‘blame’ most ofContinue reading “Resolutionizing – June”
On happiness – in general, in particular and in total and utter honesty
I hail from the Al Bundy era.Something that I’m simultaneously proud and secretly ashamed of, I guess. Those were the days, folks, those were the days. These days that show, to many, is a desperate reminder of all that was once wrong with the world. Or still is, in many ways. A shining example ofContinue reading “On happiness – in general, in particular and in total and utter honesty”
A jab of truth
Life… Is returning to normal. It might be slowly, but it definitely is surely. And as survivors of the 2020 pandemic (doesn’t that sound dramatic), we can definitely say that we made it through all of the 5 stages of grief at one point or another: The grief over the loss of life as weContinue reading “A jab of truth”

I should know better.
Every day – and I literally mean every single day – I do things that can only be qualified as ‘stupid’. Actually, plainly and undeniably stupid. For no other reason than me, apparently, being a stupid person. Yet, every time I undertake one of these stupid endeavors, I am well aware of the fact thatContinue reading “I should know better.”
On the job
Have you ever had the type of job where you lost track of reality?Not in an ‘constantly- hallucinating’ kind of way, but in a way where you’re so focused on your own goings-on that you forget the bigger picture? I have (obviously, or I wouldn’t be writing this blog). My job mainly consists of (asContinue reading “On the job”
