Chapter 6—My Friends’ll Never Believe Me Epilogue     Chapter 1—Cyril’s Rogue Logger Bot                 It was an unusually calm day in the Evergreen Forest.    Bert was throwing a party for his friends, namely Cedric.    Sofia Tutu was there, arm in arm with him.     Had it not been for Bert acting as Cedric’s wingman, Sofia might’ve never known that Cedric was even alive.                     Bert had seen his shy aardvark friend blossom, becoming a better man than his father could ever have imagined.   He was an advocate for the forest and the creatures that li...

I Reject Your Reality and Substitute My Own

Image
  I have cancelled my trip once last year looking for a career and currently I have had 2 job offers thus far.  Many of the so-called 'offers' I have had have ghosted me or texted me in return saying they found other candidates.   I am used to this sort of rejection and I continue plodding along, feeling my fortune will improve soon.   I had a call Monday and unfortunately, the job I applied for is commission based and also too lengthy of a drive to even consider especially considering the fact that my car needs maintenance.    Granted, I feel it can be driven around Greencastle with no trouble as soon as my tires are inflated, but I haven't driven in my beautiful Azul for months now.         My latest offer had me being interviewed twice  which I thought was a good sign.  I felt confident about the first interview and a little shaky on the second.    I also awkwardly sensed I was talking far too much....

Dreams Will Come True

Image
 I don't know if this will be my last post here but if I continue posting, you know it wasn't.  I keep feeling a magnetic drive to head to Israel.   I have longed, nay dreamed for this opportunity to travel there since I was 40 (and that was after my 'midlife/existential crisis').   I do not know what tomorrow will bring but I just want anyone and everyone to know that if I ever said anything to offend you, I didn't mean it personally.   I am blunt and I speak the truth.   I have tried to be a friend and half the time I'm either wrong or I'm 'part of the problem'.   One group I happened to belong to quoted scripture and said I was a 'helpful idiot', which hurts me that much more.   So, until I am spoken to, I retain silence.   Silence means I will not hurt someone or wound them.   I am not here for that.  I am here to enlighten, awaken, stir, exhort, etc.   I know it is not a simple ...

Detective, Interrupted

  Table of Contents Author’s Note Chapter 1—Father Son Bonding Chapter 2—That’s…Odd… Chapter 3—New York, Circa 1933 Chapter 4—As Luck Would Have It Chapter 5—Encountering Tesla Chapter 6—Not Alone Chapter 7—Growing Up Fast Epilogue     Author’s Note:    I have found recently that fanfic writing has been extremely cathartic.    Only currently have I begun watching Spider Noir, which was as close as I was going to be able to get to Nic Cage after everything I have been through after a hellacious dumpster fire week.    Like a phoenix, I have been able to rise from the ashes of defeat as always, pick myself up, dust myself off and ‘pull myself up by my bootstraps’ as dad always used to say.    I have found memories that made me smile and contemplate how far I have come and I know that I have ‘miles to go before I sleep’.    I know not everything is straightforward and there are many pathways but all I h...
