I am alive challenge / one day as a shark DAY ONE

I am alive challenge / one day as a shark DAY ONE

Hello, I’m Mark aka Shark I already had an idea for a blog post series called One Day as a Shark, which I’m still kind of doing, but now it’s also part of the I am Alive Challenge on Hive. My life is changing a lot lately and I want to document that, for when it’s good and also when it’s bad. Many people have had a tough year and a half or so, and I certainly have as well. My mother and my…

The sun rose like it was excited about Friday

The sun rose like it was excited about Friday

The sun was coming up as I was heading into work this morning, and it looked lovely behind me for the entire drive. Somehow, there’s a photo taken from the driver’s side of my Jeep. I assure you I did not take this photo while I was driving. It must have been a poltergeist situation. When I got to work, I took another photo in the parking lot because it looked so pink and different than…

I woke up with Black Eyed Suzy in my head today

I woke up with Black Eyed Suzy in my head today

Honestly, I’m surprised there haven’t been more Justin Townes Earle songs on this list. Part of the problem is that I just don’t make that many updates. I’ve been considering trying to get a post started early in the morning, with the title, list, and all the content that is used on all the posts in this series. Then at work, I could write out the rest of the content. We’ll see. There really are…

I woke up today with Cocaine Country Dancing in my head

I woke up today with Cocaine Country Dancing in my head

It’s worth noting at the beginning that I am neither an advocate for cocaine nor country dancing. You do what you want, but I steer clear of the white stuff because I have an addictive personality and also because I don’t want to get some shit laced with fentanyl or something and die from it. I’m not afraid to die, but I’m not looking to either. Another thing worth mentioning is that I really…

I woke up with the grave in the garden in my head

I woke up with the grave in the garden in my head

You’d be hard-pressed to find anything written about Colter Wall that doesn’t mention that he sounds about 150 years older than he is when he’s singing. Now, I can hear you already. “150 years? How is that possible? He sounds like he’s 175 years old? What does that even sound like?” To clarify, he sounds like he’s older than his years but also singing from the past. His sticks to a rather…

I woke up with Sin City in my head

I woke up with Sin City in my head

Those are some fancy get-ups. Flying Burrito Brothers? That’s just silly. It’s been a while since I made one of these posts. It had been a while before the last one, too. Truth be told, part of the reason I haven’t written a post about the song in my head upon waking is that I’ve been working on my own songs lately and I often wake up with them in my head. Posting them would be both pointless…

I woke up with No Key, No Plan in my head today

You float up high and it isn’t a sin. And there isn’t a hell where we’ll be sent. There’s only now, and there isn’t then. So just breathe it in.

Well, well, well. It’s been a while. How are you? I decided to post this today because this is…

I woke up with Kerosene in my head today

Well, well, well. Would you look at that! It’s been nearly two weeks again since I’ve made one of these posts. Each one lately starts with excuses for why I haven’t posted many of them. What I did today was start the post on my computer while I was getting ready for work. Now, on my first break, I’m writing the paragraphs for…

I woke up with Kyoto in my head

I woke up with Kyoto in my head

I don’t mean the city. While I’m sure it’s lovely, I’ve never been. Then again, does one have to have been to a city to think about said city? Probably not. You knew that anyway. Songs are in my head when I wake up, not cities.

This is the third track (second song) on the newest Phoebe Bridgers album, Punisher. I’ll be…

This time of year, you've got to get your rides in early... or late.

This time of year, you’ve got to get your rides in early… or late.

This morning, I went for a short-ish bike ride. Just short of 13 miles. My goal was to try to push slightly harder than I had on my last few rides. Specifically, I was trying to maintain a certain speed when going uphill, without standing up. A lot of people would gauge this with something like cadence sensors, but I’m not that fancy. While I am definitely pretty interesting in bicycling, I’m far…

I woke up with Pulp in my head this morning

I woke up with Pulp in my head this morning

Normally, I try to work the title of the song into the title of the blog post. Today, however, I thought that the word “pulp” was more humorous than something having to do with a pencil skirt. Truth be told, I don’t even know what a pencil skirt is, but I’m quite certain a quick search on DuckDuckGo would solve that for me.

Lately, I’ve been on a bit of a Pulp kick. Mostly just Different Class

The only good part about the recent hard fork of Steem that stole a bunch of funds from people is… That now I can power down my Steem even faster! What's nice is that Steem is pretty close in price to Hive right now.

I woke up with Good Morning Providence in my head today

This is one of those songs that makes sense because I’d just listened to it the day before. A friend of mine shared a post about The Gloria Record reissuing their 2000 EP A Lull in Traffic on vinyl and it made me delve back in and listen to them.

The Gloria Record is a project that came to life after the breakup of one of…

I woke up with frosting on the beater in my head today

That’s not the actual name of this song, but it is the name of the album, and it’s also in the line that was stuck in my head this morning. Although I haven’t listened to this album in a few days, it’s not surprising that I woke up with this song in my head today because I have definitely been listening to this album a fair…

I woke up with a stay-at-home anthem in my head this morning

Truth be told, I’ve both liked and related to this song for the better part of 20 years, so it has nothing to do with the current COVID-19 situation and the stay-at-home orders that have come along with it. I’ve been staying at home by choice for decades at this point. In fact, the things I’m missing are not really parties or…

Is Herd Immunity the Answer for COVID-19?

Is Herd Immunity the Answer for COVID-19?

I’m surprised that this video is actually allowed on YouTube since it questions the almighty WHO, but it’s still up. You could watch it if you’re interested in a different opinion, or you could pretend you know everything and call these two men idiots for going against the status quo. You’re certainly entitled to that opinion.

7 Foods High in BIOAVAILABLE Zinc

Right now, it’s more important than ever to have a healthy immune system. Even though we’re all sort of stuck indoors for the time being, we should be striving to stay healthy and not just watching TV and eating candy all day because we’re bored. Granted, I have been watching a lot more television than I usually do, but not…
