Everything is awful

So, it's been a while, hasn't it? This isn't awkward. It's only been close to 2 years since I wrote anything here. Who would have guessed that the last post (which was my most popular post ever) would have been so...prescient? And also, y'know, hopeful. As you may have noticed, the title to this entry...

Identity, Imagination, and Iwata

As many of you have a likely heard by now, Mr. Satoru Iwata, the president of Nintendo, died on July 11 after a long battle with cancer. This entry...I think this is more for me and my mental health than anything. Mr. Iwata's passing really got me and I have been doing a lot of... Continue Reading →

Back to Never Again

As some of you know, I do not sleep well. I haven't slept well in 10+ years. There are a million reasons for this. There are rare occasions when I wake in the middle of the night and have a moment of clarity or creativity. I had one of those the other night. It wasn't... Continue Reading →

On Being Useful and Living Long

Howdy, folks. I haven't abandoned you. I haven't forgotten. It's been a pretty wild last few weeks. Come, take a walk with me. In my last writing, I mentioned some plans going forward. The good news? Those plans actually became actions. Having been back in NC for about two weeks, I have begun, albeit slowly... Continue Reading →

Destroying the Village

Howdy folks. I know what you're thinking; "what is this madness? Walt posting twice? In less than a week? What dark forces are at play here?" Well, there are no dark forces at work, at least none of which I am aware. I did say I was planning on bringing the blog back, and I'm... Continue Reading →

Rise

Well, this isn't awkward. Nope. Not at all. Howdy, folks. I know it's been a while. A long, long while. A lot has happened since I last wrote. Some good, some bad, some in-between type things. First, and foremost, I feel I need to apologize for effectively allowing this blog to go to pot since... Continue Reading →

“The Tide Rises, The Tide Falls”

It has been a long, long time since I have written anything. It wasn't for lack of material about which to write (NHL Lockout, replacement refs in the NFL, the Pittsburgh Pirates laughable collapse, the election, my personal life, etc). It was simply a matter of professional life absolutely consuming every waking moment from July... Continue Reading →

Tiptoe, softly.

Wow. It's been a wild 20-or-so days since I last posted. Outside of a truly embarrassing loss to the Sabres, the Pens have been playing pretty solid hockey. James Neal has been signed to a long-term deal at a reasonable cap hit, especially in years 4-6 (operating under the assumption of small increases in cap... Continue Reading →

All Things In Time

Wow. That month went by fast. Since the last update, and that was late October, business has picked up around these parts. The good news: I have really settled into my job and there's much less insanity surrounding the day-to-day life. I'm still perpetually behind the 8-ball, but that happens. Contrary to popular belief, teaching... Continue Reading →

Back in Town, Back in Time

I got back into town on Friday around 5:30 or so. Since then it has been a complete whirlwind of "Oh, God, what next." As today is Sunday (and I worked at my janitorial job last night), I am taking a rare day of rest. To update everyone on the events of the past week...... Continue Reading →
