Garbage Night

Posted on 03/15/2022 by Andrew Bejma

I thought about updating at least three times yesterday, but I didn’t give myself any shit for not doing it. Baby steps, dude. I did major cleaning/packing/throwing shit out yesterday. I got into a groove and went through most of the most sentimental things that I had saved for years. It’s not necessarily that these…

Cold and Snowy Sunday

Posted on 03/13/2022 by Andrew Bejma

I’m about to head into a few days of being cooped up at home. It’s shitty outside today, and I’m dropping my car off tonight to the mechanic for the inspection tomorrow. They said it would take a couple days, so I’m without transport for a bit. It’s going to be the perfect time to…

Current Status

Posted on 03/12/2022 by Andrew Bejma

So I’ve needed to do a status update on here for a long time, but here we go: Camper When I bought the camper, it was dirty to say the least, but ready to go in warm weather, with no rain. The guy I bought it from had kept it in a garage so he…

Magnet Fishing

Posted on 03/12/202203/12/2022 by Andrew Bejma

I came across this thing called Magnet Fishing a couple of weeks ago, and I think it’s the perfect fit for me. It’s a hobby that’s a combination of environmentalism and treasure hunting. I’ve loved treasure hunting since I was a kid, and let’s be honest, every time I see any of the National Treasure movies on TV…

Struggle Updating

Posted on 03/11/2022 by Andrew Bejma

Perfectionism is always something I’ve struggled with. (In fact, I typed that sentence, didn’t like it, and stopped writing for 30 minutes because I didn’t know how to fix it) I’m struggling with updating the site with posts on a consistent basis, and I’m making myself feel guilty about it. I could say that it’s…

Making Moves

Posted on 12/01/202112/01/2021 by Andrew Bejma

I’ve had major realizations in the last two weeks. I can’t wait for the right circumstances to present themselves, it’s never going to happen. I have to make it happen. I’m not going to let my relationship happen TO me, and I’m not going to let OTHER PEOPLE’S decisions dictate how I live my life…

Good Morning

Soundtrack: Good Morning – Alex Aiono I’ve been trying for weeks and weeks to come out here and catch the sunrise. Feels serendipitous it was today.

Restarting

Posted on 09/26/2021 by Andrew Bejma

I always hated Sunday nights. It always meant an end to freedom and a return to the real world of work. The struggle to prove myself. The nights started to bleed into the day, and soon into Saturday. It was as if my world was work, and anxiety about returning to work. Now, I know…

Purchase

Posted on 08/07/202102/21/2022 by Andrew Bejma

Today I took a major step toward my goal. I purchased a teardrop camper trailer. I was so excited all the way home. Putting on music that got me in the right frame of mind. A little nervous but still very excited. I walked in the door and absolutely no one was excited for me….

Without a Map

Posted on 08/05/202102/21/2022 by Andrew Bejma

Manhood Without A Map What does that mean to me? How do you learn to be a man? What if you never had any good examples of how men should act? What if, instead of building you up, the men in your life discarded, belittled and used you for their own needs at the expense…
