Wild Card
I just purchased a book, Wild Card, written by my friend Roger Bingham who unforunately left us on my “birthday” last year, October 21st. The premise of the book is set in a time of societal decay as the world descends into disorder. The president and his science advisor cook up a plan to rally the world…

Crumbs
I’m a skeptic when it comes to what lies beyond our reality, but I’m always surprised when synchronicity kicks in. It gives me faith in the collective and a strong connection to not just the living, but those who have lived. It’s a constant reminder that energy cannot be created or destroyed. There are those…

On kindness
Often, people mistake being charming and kind with being good. “Be kind,” seems to be a popular catchphrase nowadays. I don’t want to rain on anyone’s parade, but kindness can and has been used in the past as weapon to control and manipulate others- think about how some of the slave owners treated their slaves…

Vegas with Luna and Sezar in our hearts
I thought I woke up on Christmas Day, only to find myself being choked in what I guess is sleep paralysis. Everything was in color, except for the man who was void of any color, almost as if I was seeing him in black and white. He stood at the foot of my bed with…

Friendship
Friendship is not a competition, but some people make it so. For the past three years, the death count of lives I’ve lost has surpassed 20 and I just stopped counting after that. I didn’t want to turn those lives into a statistic. Each life lost was a stab in my heart, and it never…

Another Lazy Update
Yet here I am, back in this familiar space, dusting off the cobwebs and reminiscing about the these past few months. It’s funny how life has this way of pulling you in a myriad of directions while you’re busy making other plans. The weddings were a celebration of love, two beautiful unions that brought together…

Thanks to the Internet2 Inclusivity Initiative Scholarship, I had the incredible privilege of attending the Internet2 Community Exchange Conference held in vibrant Atlanta, Georgia. The conference served as a nexus, connecting me with esteemed experts and…

A Pause
A few days ago I drank coffee, and I am still feeling the crash. I should learn from my mistakes, but after a while I forget, especially when the coffee is free. No matter how early in the morning I drink it, I get wired and tired, but I stay up all night. Note to…

2600 Days
Last year I met a some cool hackers like Glitch and MU1500. I also reconnected with a friend who I just recently found out was into it. I miss the 2600 days when a bunch of us would meet at Regents on the first Friday of the month and then meet up again for brunch…
