Missive from the Gem State: Part 1

June 13, 2020June 14, 2020 / lfreymiller / Leave a comment

Hello Dear Readers, It has been a while hasn’t it? To summarize: Scout and I left Oakland and have now settled our collective gams in Moscow, Idaho where I intend to live and study for the next three years. Don’t know exactly what Scout will be doing, but my intuition tells me napping will be … Continue reading Missive from the Gem State: Part 1

Shelter in Place: Day 69

May 26, 2020 / lfreymiller / Leave a comment

Hello All, Less than a week now until I leave Oakland. Today was a scorcher as they say. I went on an early morning walk with a writing friend (distanced, of course) and even then the sun was beating down. It felt good to see Oakland again. Most of my time here I spent walking … Continue reading Shelter in Place: Day 69

Shelter in Place: Day 68

May 25, 2020 / lfreymiller / Leave a comment

Hello Friends, It's getting down there. I have about a week remaining until I depart for Idaho. Today we moved out most of the apartment furniture and thanks to the divine nature of the Oakland sidewalks, most of it has been taken off to a new home. I, too, am in search of a new … Continue reading Shelter in Place: Day 68

Shelter in Place: Day 67

May 24, 2020 / lfreymiller / Leave a comment

Today I picked up my guitar for a little bit. I have a guitar. It is pink. I don't have an amp or anything so I just pretend it is an acoustic guitar even though it is electric. I play sad indie songs as quietly as possible. In seriousness, though, playing music has been one … Continue reading Shelter in Place: Day 67

Shelter in Place: Day 65

May 22, 2020 / lfreymiller / Leave a comment

Heyo! 10 days left in Oakland. I took a walk this morning for the first time in a while. I get really stressed out about seeing other people. And especially people not wearing masks or keeping their distance. I guess there is some "debate" going on about wearing masks. Which makes no sense to me, … Continue reading Shelter in Place: Day 65

Shelter in Place: Day 64

May 21, 2020 / lfreymiller / 2 Comments

Hello All, Today I cleaned. Cleaning helps me keep my anxiety at bay. It's nice to feel like I'm achieving something even if it won't last. I have eleven days left before I leave Oakland. I keep thinking about what my life looked like before shelter in place. Every day I took BART in to … Continue reading Shelter in Place: Day 64

Shelter in Place: Day 63

May 20, 2020May 20, 2020 / lfreymiller / 1 Comment

I needed a bit of a break yesterday. I've been thinking a lot recently about why I'm continuing to blog every day. It's been over two months now. The obvious answer, of course, is that this is my attempt to make meaning. And to perhaps provide some sort of meaning to others? Though that seems … Continue reading Shelter in Place: Day 63

Today I did absolutely nothing, and that is okay. All the best, LAF

Shelter in Place: Day 61

May 18, 2020 / lfreymiller / Leave a comment

Hello All, Didn't sleep well last night. Woke up at 2:30ish. For a moment, looking out my window, I thought it was morning. The streetlamps are so bright. The fog had that tornado-yellow hue. But the birds weren't singing yet and my phone said it was 2:30. I sat for a while with my window … Continue reading Shelter in Place: Day 61

Shelter in Place: Day 60

May 17, 2020 / lfreymiller / Leave a comment

Well, well, well. Another dang milestone. Two months and counting. I'm doing okay today, folks. I got up. I drank some coffee. I played guitar. Scout's harness showed up! We gave it a little test run and it went solidly okay. We didn't quite make it outside. Someone was too scared (I'll let you guess … Continue reading Shelter in Place: Day 60
