    Some Days it Hits You

    I walked up to my wife today with tears streaming down my cheeks, trying to get the words out. She doesn’t see me like this often, so of course she was worried. “I’m okay,” I told her. Then tried to explain what was going on. I had my laptop in my hand, an email open… Continue reading

    Arriving Early with Assholes

    To make sense of today’s blog post, you’ll need to first go purchase and read Kevin Kelly’s magnificent book What Technology Wants. And really, you should be reading that instead of coming here anyway. It’s one of those marvelous books that reshapes how you see the past, present, and future. You’re back?

Beach day with my mermaid. Our first kiss was on July 1st, 2022. We've celebrated the first of every month since as an anniversary. We also follow the phases of the moon, living on a boat named LUNA. Today is a full moon on the first! We call these our honeymoons. ❤️🌚 Just when I thought this sunset sail couldn't get any better... Anchored off the most beautiful beach in Martinique for a few nights. Set up camp on the sand for the day. Absolute paradise. This is our favorite anchorage in Martinique. Never seen another boat here, just tons of wildlife. Lots of birds, the best coral in the Caribbean, and sea critters galore. Just today we swam with rays, turtles, eels, and dozens of species of fish. Right from the boat! I grew up on a farm in North Carolina reading physics books from the local library, wishing I had someone, anyone, to talk to about the wild universe we inhabit. The best thing to come from my sci-fi career is that I get to surround myself with like-minded, curious people.
