What I'm Thinking About Today ...
I haven’t been on this site lately, as much as I had been before. My life is constantly changing, constantly evolving, which I have found is the key to my being able to continue my journey. Change is scary, but sometimes necessary to move forward.
One of the changes I’ve made is to start writing on a different platform. I am now writing on Substack as well as here, and the two spaces allow me to create and explore and experiment more easily.
I’ve been taking stories from here, and posting them over there, with some editing. I will also be taking some stories from there and posting them here.
I want to thank you all for going on this journey with me. I’ve appreciated seeing and knowing that there are people out there who have been interested enough to read all my silly words and maybe glean something from them. (And of course, I hope the artwork has interested you as well!)
If you would like to read my work on Substack, I’ve included the link below. It’s free! You don’t need to pay me or Substack anything – just come along for the ride! You'll learn about who I am and what kinds of things occupy my time otherwise - I've got stories and notes and all kinds of things going!
Thank you once again for being here with me. I look forward to writing more and more, and I hope you find my work engaging and amusing.

The Quest for Oblivion
WELCOME!
This blog is a collection of my thoughts, opinions and ideas concerning current events in the world at large as well as my own experiences. Since one never knows what will happen from one day to the next, I expect that I might eventually cover a vast range of topics from social issues, politics, travel, art, music, food and contemporary culture.
I chose the name of my blog based on the idea that I often feel surrounded by people who seem to have no clue as to what is going on; at the same time, the overwhelming trends I see sometimes serve to make me feel that I am the one who is clueless. Either way, I try to be open-minded, well-informed, and thoughtful about things, and I respect other people's opinions just as I hope they would respect mine.
The abstract/surreal images featured at the top of the site (and sometimes with the entries) have all been created by J. Robert, a digital image artist. He allows me to use them for free
Please note: this is not a gaming blog! I don't know who The Elders are, and I certainly don't have their Scrolls!
