Christmas, 2025
Christmas in Mondoville is not the stuff of Currier and Ives — it’s sunny today, and we expect a high in the upper 70s. Culturally, it feels inapt, but as I’ve noted before, that’s apt in its own way. That’s … Continue reading

Mondoville Saturday Afternoon
I had to pick up a couple of things at WalMart after lunch today, and figured I’d take the opportunity to gas up Mrs. M’s ride, seeing as she has taken mine to Real City for some retail therapy. Conveniently, … Continue reading

Sunday Afternoon Potpourri: Post-Homecoming, 2025
I’ve never entirely acclimated to life here in South Carolina, although it’s done well by me. I mean that first part pretty literally — even after having lived here for two decades and change, the longest I’ve ever lived anywhere, … Continue reading
Saturday Potpourri: So. Sixty.
Yep — I’ve made another trip around the sun. My social media feeds are rife with well wishes, and if I fail to acknowledge any of them, I will apologize in advance for the oversight. I’m grateful for each of … Continue reading
