My oldest nephew discovered the TV show "Inside of the World's Toughest Prisons" and we watched an episode together. I will not comment on the prisons, but that reporter is quite something.
He purports himself to be a cautious man fearing for his safety.
Yet he frequently tries the prisoners' restraint by asking questions that may well be equivalent to "You wouldn't dare punch me in the face, would you?" - or worse.

Some days I awaken and wonder at my good fortune. How unlikely is my birth? That I should be born a human is incredible.
Praise be! And good morning.

I confess, despite the glaring typos and errors, I enjoy reading my own chapters. Then I swear I will fix those typos the next time I get to editing. Only to neglect doing so. Classic foolishness.

I enjoy reading my own chapters much more than I enjoy writing them.

I prefer writing poetry.

Unfortunately, I do not always prefer reading poetry.

On genre preferences:
Once upon a time, science fiction was considered frivolous literature. I may hold my own prejudices, but I know the times will always be a-changing.

Just read a Chinese novel, and they caught a sniper trying to assassinate someone. And the rifle the foreign assassin used has his country's flag and name on it. They deduce his country sent him.
Excuse me?

Fellow insomniacs, do you know that sensation of walking in two worlds? One world is "reality", the other a mere projection of the mind. One sound, one sight, one smell, a mere trifle is enough to invoke that transformation. Rather than replacing one world with another, it is as if you were in two places at the same time.

One more legend. Winter.

I like to sleep
One hundred days
My feeling has gone
Flesh cold and numb
I am staring in

Someone reported me to HR for harassment. This is a first for me. There are no women on the team. I am confused.
For now, I only know that someone filed a complaint, not who or when.
I wonder if they mistook me for someone else, my name is uncommon but my appearance is not.
