I have a bit of an ego problem, but other than that I am a really fantastic person.

Social Media and Anxiety

Posted: March 08, 2019 Under: Writings By braducation No Comments

I watched yesterday’s episode of the Philip DeFranco Show on YouTube this morning. In it, Phil talked about anxiety levels in professional athletes and how social media has created anxiety levels in younger people that are a lot higher than ever before. He was specifically talking about people from his generation and younger, which he … Continue reading "Social Media and Anxiety"

3-D Printable Magnetic Latch Casing

Posted: March 06, 2019 Under: Maker By braducation No Comments

Our bathroom cabinet came with a magnetic latch which broke pretty quickly after we bought it. So I took some measurements and designed it the way I though it should be designed. The original piece had a divider between the two magnets which didn’t seem important until I assembled this casing. It wasn’t necessary, but … Continue reading "3-D Printable Magnetic Latch Casing"

3-D Printable Drawer Track Guide

Posted: February 28, 2019 Under: Maker By braducation No Comments

I recently received a piece of furniture with a drawer in it. When I looked the thing over, I noticed that the drawer track guide was cracked and eventually going to break. So I took measurements of every dimension that I could think of and then opened up my free copy of Fusion 360 and … Continue reading "3-D Printable Drawer Track Guide"

Two thousand miles was a long way for a computer nerd to travel in a car that received the same nurturing as a mangy dog left tied up in the backyard.

Ne’er I Saw the Day

Posted: February 26, 2019 Under: Writings By braducation No Comments

Into my lifeHas night come twice,Though ne’er I saw the day. The ram was rough,The ewe was weak,And so I missed the way. The scroll does showThat day had been,That ram and ewe were one. But all my eyesHave ever seen,Were two and the day done. Written November 3, 2000 copyright 2000 Bradley S. Owens

As a younger man I had it all,A world designed for six feet tall.But now it seems I’ve lost and inch,And that has put me in a pinch. While growing up I knew one thing,The ideal man to which women cling.For this most men would pay a ransomJust to be tall, dark, and handsome. And … Continue reading "I Lost an Inch"

Brown Grass

Posted: February 26, 2019 Under: Writings By braducation No Comments

The burnt brown grass sits in the sun, With the rays beating down until its day is done, Begging to borrow for barely a minute, A cool drop of water with a little life in it. Not a breath of a breeze in the hot August air, To comfort or calm the arid despair. With … Continue reading "Brown Grass"

Gladys

When I was a boy, I spent my summers in Missouri at my mother’s residential care facility. At least that is what it was called by the time she sold it. Back in the early days we called it a boarding home or an old folks’ home. I mostly spent my time hanging out with … Continue reading "Gladys"

Caregiver Forms

Posted: February 26, 2019 Under: Links By braducation No Comments

When I was a kid, my mother owned a residential care facility. She would make lots of forms with a straightedge and a pencil to keep track of all of the stuff that she needed to do on a regular basis, like dispensing medications. She found it was the only way to be thorough and … Continue reading "Caregiver Forms"
