BACK ON THE SADDLE!

Woke up at 6am this morning. Went downstairs. Got the coffee going. Drank some water. Powered up the ol’ laptop that’s been humming along for 8+ years now. Sat on my saddle chair (my horse), rolled up my sleeves and got to work. Giddyap. 

The first month of the year is behind me. I did what I had to do which is find an apartment. It’s good to get my own space again after too many years of living with other people which starts to really get under the skin of a man eventually. I move next week. 

I hit the gym too hard in January. Pain in forearms and elbows. Gonna just stick with bodyweight home exercise and long walks for the next month at least. It’s not my priority right now. Basic fitness is enough to keep the blood running clean and joints lubricated. And honestly, I can use the extra money from paying for a gym on more important stuff like food and books. 

It’s afternoon now and I am getting my website going, writing this first post. Lots of little things to do and set up so I have a good infrastructure in place. I know what I’m doing. I had my first wordpress site up and running way back in the day when these weren’t so common. So it’s not my first rodeo.

I don’t exactly know what/who I am anymore. I used to think I was a musician and poet without a single lonesome doubt. But now I’m not so sure. It’s like there is something deeper going and those are just tools for me. I am getting into this marketing thing more and more. It’s all a matter of perspective. It is another tool of course to get at whatever it is that is itching down in the dungeons.

In other words, I am evolving. New entities are emerging. I am becoming someone more than who I thought I was. And I am allowing it to happen because the old version was a dead end.

Ok, time to get this first post up. I know it’s not perfect. Just wanted to get something posted. But I’m on the clock here. Got another 2.5 hours before my day is done. I am trying to be a good boss to myself and tell him to not work too hard. Thanks boss. You’re welcome.

Good to be here.
