A boy and his dog-without the dog. Wednesday, August 13, 2014. I only know I love her when I let her go - and I let her go. Whatever it is its just sitting there laughing at me - and I just want to scream - What Now - I just can't figure it out. I spend every hour just going through the motions I can't even get the emotions to come out Dry as a bone but I just want to shout What Now. Kiss me hard before you go Summertime sadness I just wanted you to know Baby you're the best. You've been havin real bad d...

a boy & his dog-without the dog: January 2011
http://riosawhill.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
A boy and his dog-without the dog. Thursday, January 27, 2011. Have you ever been there? It is beautiful-at least that was my experience-during the Memorial Day weekend I spent there in 2007. I fell in love. The view, the vibe, the layout of the city over gentle hills.wow! At the time, my friend mentioned a show I had just missed for a group called Common Market. The two members of the group are both Baha'is. Brasso by Common Market. A hip hop duo that features one-half of Common Market: Sabzi. Intriguin...

a boy & his dog-without the dog: Vietnam - Day 2
http://riosawhill.blogspot.com/2015/04/vietnam-day-2.html
A boy and his dog-without the dog. Friday, April 17, 2015. Vietnam - Day 2. The digital clock in front of me reads 6:50. I gave up trying to read about 10 minutes before we took our half hour rest stop, so I guess about 6? I look over at Randi, "Have we not even been here 48 hours yet? Then it was noon:30 and we were rushing to pack and get out of the room. After some apologies and settling our room fee - 2 people/2 nights for $40 - they pointed us towards a good pho stand and we shouldered our bags ...

A boy and his dog-without the dog. Friday, June 25, 2010. I Know, I Know! Thursday, April 17, 2008. There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance-that principle is contempt prior to investigation." - Herbert Spencer. Reprinted in the Second Appendix of Alcoholics Anonymous. How often have I said. Usually interrupting another who is trying to pass on some sort of learning to me. But it could be.

A boy and his dog-without the dog. Thursday, April 23, 2015. Da Lat, Vietnam. Traveling again, this time on a plane preparing for take-off on a return flight to Ho Chi Minh city. Da Lat was beautiful and cheesy and cool and sweltering; filled with waterfalls and flowers and coffee plantations and traffic - but not as much traffic as Saigon. Sights we visited: greenhouses full of flowers, a major cash crop in Da Lat (or money tree as Huan called them); a factory making rice noodles (lots and lots of flies!

a boy & his dog-without the dog: Tears at the store after hours
http://riosawhill.blogspot.com/2014/09/tears-at-store-after-hours.html
A boy and his dog-without the dog. Tuesday, September 16, 2014. Tears at the store after hours. Once again it is after midnight and. The sound of pop songs turned up as loud as the laptop will play them. Fills the space that I sit in as I glance out the window and. Play silly brain games with trains. I cry for my marriage and the wife that is gone. I cry for my mistakes and the stubborn refusals. I sing along to a song and my voice cracks and wavers. Until another song means I'm crying for you now. Hilly...

A boy and his dog-without the dog. Friday, February 18, 2011. This is a talk given by a man who is no longer alive. His name was Tom Brady, Jr., and he identified himself as an alcoholic. Often times at twelve step program conventions there are speakers who tell their life stories, with the purpose of maybe allowing someone else to identify and relate to them. Tom Brady, Jr. on Emotional Sobriety. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Currently on my reading list. Soulcraft by Bill Plotkin. Ishmael by Daniel Quinn.
