Why Autumn is the best Season

daniel3r1c

As we approach the dog days of Summer, I can’t stop dreaming of a crisp, fresh air of an Autumn morning in the North.  Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy summertime just as much as anybody else, but come on.  If you have lived in the northern half of the United States, I’m sure you know what I am talking about. The weather is amazing.  You can wear a light sweatshirt and jeans, a hooded sweatshirt and shorts, a jacket and leggings, boots, and flannels.  Be careful though and be sure to dress in layers, especially if you live in … Continue reading Why Autumn is the best Season

Spring 2017

daniel3r1c

  To my few select readers, I have not written in a long time.  Last time, I probably vented or went off on some political rant.  Today, you don’t get that. It is Spring.  New beginnings.  New life.  Everyone is starting to shed their winter fat and get their beach bodies going.  Well they’re at least trying.  That’s not a stab at anyone in particular, but if it was, he knows who it would be directed at.. Spring.  The second best season out of four.  The cold dark days start becoming longer and brighter.  They are warmer and more colorful. … Continue reading Spring 2017

Greed

daniel3r1c

The world is greedy.  Everyone wants something.  Everyone has something they don’t want to part with or share. People call republicans or the 1 percent greedy because they don’t want to share their money that they earned (or in some cases were given).  Why should they share?  Because you don’t have it and you want it?  Its theirs.  End of discussion.  I do not agree with much of what republicans have as far as views, other than economics.  Taxation is theft.  Do not take someones money to help out another person.  Sure, it is kind to help others, and the … Continue reading Greed

Social Media and Extremists

daniel3r1c

Social media is great.  It connects people and brings people together from all over the world.  People you might not even meet, ever in your life, can follow you, add you, tweet at you, and like your shit.  That’s pretty cool. Its also a shit storm.  It has brought to my eyes how fucked up our country is.  AND THIS WAS BEFORE TRUMP.  Racists, cry-babies and trolls.  There are the select few who mind their own shit, and just move along when they come across posts they don’t agree with, and to that I applaud those people.  I try so … Continue reading Social Media and Extremists

Phonie Phones Thursday

daniel3r1c

I sit here on my lunch break every day, usually watching youtube videos or movie trailers on imdb.com, and sometimes I write blogs to the few views I have.  Today I started the beginning of my lunch break thinking about society and technology and that video most of you have probably have seen where that guy says that technology is the problem for society today because it cuts personal communication.  I really liked the video myself, and had a debate on whether the guy was right with one of my friends.  (My friend made some good points, but I still … Continue reading Phonie Phones Thursday

Return From Holiday Tuesday

daniel3r1c

The worst thing about Holidays?  The return to work after the long weekend.  I was fortunate enough to have yesterday (Monday) off from work as we observed the Christmas holiday.  It was nice not having to actually go through a Monday, even though the day “Monday” itself isn’t all that bad.  I actually feel bad for that day as it gets the short end of the stick from all of the other days.  Monday isn’t the real problem, its the feeling you get from returning to work and the dread sets in of another week of working.  Though this week … Continue reading Return From Holiday Tuesday

Thinking on a Thursday

daniel3r1c

As I sit on my lunch break I can’t help but to think about everything that is going on in the world.  We had an assassination of a Russian Ambassador (which became a meme already…) we have the issue in Aleppo, and Trump doing all this weird stuff on twitter.  We have rain forests being destroyed for cattle production and the snow is melting fast outside (right before Christmas…)  Yes I know that we have more snow coming but I don’t like how fast its melting. Now, lets start off with the assassination.  This is crazy.  I am nervous to … Continue reading Thinking on a Thursday

It Could Be Worse Tuesday

daniel3r1c

Yesterday I had an unfortunate event.  I got into my first car accident.  It was horrible.  I didn’t know what to do, what the protocol was.  The first person I called was my boss to tell him I was going to be a little late because of what happened.  I probably should have called the cops first, but I didn’t wanna upset my boss on a Monday, (hes actually super cool and laid back and wouldn’t have cared, but I was just being courteous.) I was pissed.  I immediately thought back to the prior day when my good friend I … Continue reading It Could Be Worse Tuesday

“Was it really?” Wednesday

daniel3r1c

Today I wanted to reflect on the year 2016 and ask myself and my readers “Was it really?” as in, was it really that bad? I look back to the first day of 2016 and I woke up without a hangover and well rested as I spent New Years Eve in my room watching movies and talking on the phone.  For a short time I regretted not going out and thought that I had wasted my time sitting on the phone all night, but in reality it was pretty good.  I enjoyed the phone call and I learned a lot … Continue reading “Was it really?” Wednesday

Wednesday Winter Woes

daniel3r1c

Where is the snow?  I do not like this green we are hours away from December 1st.  There should be snow by now.  It isn’t the Holiday Season without snow (sorry to anyone from a lame state that doesn’t get snow, and yes “lame” is an opinion.)  I have always associated snow with Christmas, and even Thanksgiving.  I remember going to my aunt and uncles house on Lake Marion for Holidays and there being ice covering the lake.  It was usually think enough for me to walk on.  This year, my first Holiday with my extended family in a long … Continue reading Wednesday Winter Woes

Wednesday Wisdom

daniel3r1c

I have ten minutes left of my lunch break so listen closely.  I am going to give you some wisdom today.  Do not skip out on your diet that you have been working so hard on.  I have slipped on my diet for about the past month and I am feeling the impact.  Boy, I am getting gooey. Go look at old buildings, and awesomely decorated streets this holiday season.  The snow on the trees is beautiful, and the street lights casting their light over a snow covered road will bring you some joy. Plan where you would want to plant … Continue reading Wednesday Wisdom

Friday Forwards

daniel3r1c

Hey, welcome to my blog.  Whoever is reading this, you rock.  Earlier today I wrote a blog called “Friday Franklys” and now I felt like writing a Friday Forward, which is kind of like a pay it forward, but not as extreme.  These are minor “Forwards” that everyone can do. First, lets start with a simple action.  If you find yourself in public this weekend.  Stop and look around.  Forward the beauty of people and animals and nature around you.  Notice the squirrel sitting on a couch by the dumpster that somebody has thrown around.  If you are driving, whip … Continue reading Friday Forwards
