26 years I’ve owned this domain. It really lives up to its tagline: “Phaysis.com. A Frozen State of Change” (alternately: “Like Watching Grass Grow”). This has been my home for most of my adult life. So much potential, so little change. Like my real life.

“So what’re you dressed as?”
“A Gifted & Talented kid.”
“OK, uh. What’re you supposed to be?“
“I was supposed to be anything!“

This site’s ossified on using WordPress because I can’t be bothered to waste more of my life trying to build my own CMS (I burned my 30’s on that fool’s errand. Never again). And now that I’m in my fifty-mumbleth year, I’m too distracted and exhausted to bother trying. My life is more like this site: a frozen state of change. That’s an oxymoron, yeah man, right on, you’re smart, grab your tokens, go play skeeball, get your tickets for a keychain. Just roll with it.

Here’s to 26 more. If I’m fukken lucky.

Always amazed at my tenacity to keep this domain name, now for 25 years. At a quarter century, and almost half my life, it’s become part of my identity. May as well get the logo tattooed on my arm.

I’m certain that if I ever let this domain go, it’ll be snatched up by porn SEO bots within hours. Can’t let them have all the fun.

Thanks for coming around.
