engagement on one hand, unemployment on the other. it’s been a helluva year, believe that.

My folks had this drawn up to show how the new landscaping would look. It’s the house of my formative years. Woot.

What a family of pack rats we are! I guess, in this case, it’s good, because it’s really neat to see an entire sheet of Carrols fun-n-stix (or is that…

There have been (and are going to continue to be) a bunch of these posts about me-history rather than me-present, partially because nothing is going on in real life, but…

Stolen right from the “about me” section of my work-in-progress website, here is the description of the build for our new table/bar thing. One thing I didn’t mention there was…

I really need to write these updates much, much closer to the time that I have the experiences, because my brain isn’t smart and so, so much gets lost, forgotten,…

I don’t know how I have let Clapboard exist this long without putting high school formal photos on here. It’s kind of a travesty, honestly. So, for your viewing pleasure,…

Before I could write, my parents encouraged me to tell stories with them and occasionally they’d write them down. This is those, for better or worse. Someday, maybe I’ll put…

Towards the beginning of quarantine (and before i knew just how canceled my entire life was going to be), I finally came to understand a truth about the office, and…

Late last week, I installed a Smoke Windshield, a tail tidy and a camera system (mostly, more on that in a sec). This post is from my post on the…

Twenty Years ago today, my dad died. It’s a complicated thing to be a whole human being, but we all manage, somehow, and he was no different. Now I’m the…

Like 12 hours of footage smashed together. You miss the ferry ride, sadly, but that’s about it. 3.5 minutes of happy fun time drivin up near the Arctic Circle.

It’s been awhile since I’ve done any kind of revamp on Clapboard, and a change that I only recently noticed to the way that WordPress itself handles featured items prompted…
