Meet Ace My New Puppy
My mom bought me a puppy for my birthday. I named him Ace, like Batman’s dog. He is a Jack Russell Terrier. A friend of my mother had a littler of 5 puppies. By the time I went to pick the dog, they were down to just 2. The other ones had been adopted. The brothers were pretty similar. I took the smallest one. He is a pretty calm puppy. He doesn’t bark, but he does bite. I have his chew toy always nearby. This keeps him from biting my laptop. On the first night, he was able to sleep...
Much ado about Nothing in Particular
I finally got around to finishing another book. For the time being, I am in the editing progress. I am also formulating a new type of book or something. I bought myself a new video game. It will be useful for unwinding for a bit. It is fun to play games from time to time. I wonder if Silksong is ever going to come out. It feels like it is never going to be out. Oh! Well…it has been a pretty long year. I also feel half asleep. I need to get around to drawing a little bit more. Other...
The Cats in Hemingway's Museum in Key West Florida
I took a long vacation from everything. My family went down to Key West to soak in the pool for a bit. In Key West, it seems like life has returned to normal.

So, throughout the museum I saw a...
Artsy Sister Celebrates Tanabata 2021
Tanabata has become of a little family tradition. Brother person got into celebrating Tanabata with his girlfriend. I ended up joining in the fun, along with my mother. For those not up to date with the fun, Tanabata is known as the Star Festival in Japan. The celestial deities Orihime and Hikoboshi are together at last. They are only allowed to meet up once per year, on the seventh day, of the seventh month of the lunar Calendar. Since the Gods are in a good mood, the folks in Japan take this chance to ask for a bunch of stuff....
Eastern Swallowtail Butterfly in my Backyard
It was very late at night. It was then when I noticed this cool looking butterfly. This butterfly usually wanders about really quickly. As such, it was rare to see it standing still. I took this chance to feed the mosquitoes and take a nice photo. I used the flash to take the photo. I had to inch closer, and closer in order to take a clear photo. My flash has a range issue. You can sort of see the darkness behind it. This is also the time when the snakes go out and play. So, I was like on...
