Randomness For a Sunny Afternoon

May 27, 2015 / Todd Skaggs - Author / Leave a comment

The past couple of weeks really have been crazy.  What's really crazy is that I have been able to, since they have happened, step outside of myself and see the events of the past two weeks detached from my self and have come to realize that there is nothing in the events themselves that was significant.Which … Continue reading Randomness For a Sunny Afternoon

Huh, Writers Are People, Too

May 24, 2015 / Todd Skaggs - Author / Leave a comment

I'm going to start this post with something I never do. Which is to say, something I'm sure I've done in a past post, but have completely forgotten by this point and am quite entirely too lazy to go back and look through past posts and check.Dear Universe,I got it. Seriously. Finding out that my … Continue reading Huh, Writers Are People, Too

You’re Probably Sorta Racist, Too

May 20, 2015 / Todd Skaggs - Author / Leave a comment

Racial Bias. Prejudice. Racial Privilege. They go back to fear.I want to wake up one day in a society where fear is not the norm. Where we are not fed fear morning, noon, and night by the industry that is supposed to be informing us of what's going on in the world. Or shown reasons … Continue reading You’re Probably Sorta Racist, Too

Just Three Things

May 19, 2015 / Todd Skaggs - Author / Leave a comment

I'm going to go on a bit of a rant here. And I'm going to contradict something that many of you probably take as Gospel.I work for a retail company. I don't work on the retail side of the company, I'm in IT. But I did. For three years I worked on the retail side. … Continue reading Just Three Things

A Weekend of Epiphanies*

May 18, 2015 / Todd Skaggs - Author / Leave a comment

*or rather, one epiphany that was continually reinforced throughout the weekend.Bliss.It's a funny word. Very similar in appearance (and many many other ways to 'bless').Bliss may mean different things to different people. And many may think they have experienced bliss. I think it's important for a person to have a clear understand of what bliss … Continue reading A Weekend of Epiphanies*

A Day In the Life of Awesomesauce

May 9, 2015 / Todd Skaggs - Author / 1 Comment

So...yeah. I'm going to start by...shit...hold on...Had to trim my nails. I swear I never had to do that before I got this dental work in my lower front. Something about biting my nails or something. But yeah. If they are too long I can't type or play guitar. Which..for the guitar I guess it's … Continue reading A Day In the Life of Awesomesauce

Separate Not Equal

May 7, 2015 / Todd Skaggs - Author / Leave a comment

I struggle with this. This feeling. This post is probably going to offend someone. Someone else will probably call the post or its author a racist, privileged white suburbanite sitting in his white bread all-American apartment on Main Street, USA far removed from the very real struggles of race that are facing our nation in … Continue reading Separate Not Equal

Slowly Waking Up

May 5, 2015 / Todd Skaggs - Author / Leave a comment

43 years is a long time to be asleep. And to be fair...I'm not completely asleep. And yet, there are times when the facade of this world holds on with such tenacity that I almost believe its real.Case in point. Fight Club.  I finished reading it and instantly made a list of shit I didn't … Continue reading Slowly Waking Up

Insight

May 4, 2015 / Todd Skaggs - Author / Leave a comment

So, if you've seen Inside The Actor's Studio, you'll recognize these questions. They originated on a French talk show hosted by Bernard Pivot. It might be kind of a cop out, but I figure it's a bit of insight in to me. Perhaps I will expand each answer in to a separate post. Because, you … Continue reading Insight

Papa’s Got a Brand New…Cliche?

May 2, 2015 / Todd Skaggs - Author / Leave a comment

Fans of the show* will know that I love bags. In the sense that I have a shit ton of them. And by love I mean that I have a shit ton of them. I don't know that it's actual love per se but it's at the very least abject consumerism.I could blame Madison Ave. or the … Continue reading Papa’s Got a Brand New…Cliche?
