On May 25th, I attended Nate Long’s memorial. I didn’t know Nate very well at all, but I went to show solidarity and support to my friends, his sister and her ex-husband, (who even gave me gas money to be there, which was beyond kind.) The memorial was being held in a church in my …
It’s been a while since I added to this blog; and just about as long since I’ve talked about how long it’s been since I added to this blog. My golden pedestal is dusty, and tucked in the back corner of the room. I’m not on it right now, but I keep reminding myself that …
Hello, everyone. (Realistically, to all two people who read this thing, I guess?) This has been an unusual couple of days for the ol’ Gidman. It is, with mixed emotions, the time I’d suspected was coming for a long, long while. My father died Saturday morning, after another trip to the hospital for a bad …
Well, my precious Gidsciples, I have had so much going on in my life that it wasn’t until a couple weeks ago that I realized, not only have I not updated this blog which nobody really reads, but I really haven’t thought much about what to write on this blog lately. The Golden Pedestal is …
Hi again, everyone. I know you haven’t heard from me since April, but I was taking a little time for myself. I needed a break from burning my writer’s candle at both ends with a flamethrower, worked on my very first YouTube video, and I may make more. We’ll see. Enough excuses for my absence! …
Hi, everyone. Gideon here—again—to come down from the Golden Pedestal and talk about whatever’s on my mind. You may have noticed that I don’t really bring up current events often. The reason is that (while it pains me to admit out loud,) my opinions, while super amazing, and you should all listen to them, are …
Hi, world! It’s me, Gideon U Eklund, back to… um… wow. There’s approximately fifteen different ways I could open this post, and none of them seem adequate enough to get out what I’m trying to say. Maybe I’ll stay up here on the ol’ Golden Pedestal while I figure out how to lay this down …
Hello again, my dear readers, followers, and Gidsciples! Gideon here, yet again, to fill your lives with glee and inspirational words of wisdom, from up here on my amazing Golden Pedestal. As usual, you’re welcome. While I was drinking and listening to music with someone important recently, I had it pointed out to me that …
Hello, my darling readers! Gideon U. Eklund here with a Thanksgiving Day themed blog post for you all to consume. (Don’t worry- the best part is that it will still leave you with plenty of room for all the food you plan on eating today!) I’ve been sitting on my epic throne up here on …
No cute little intros about how great I am, you guys. Not this time around, if that’s okay with all of you. I normally like to keep my blog upbeat and humorous, but… I just can’t find that place right now. This post is going to be a downer, but I think it’s important that …
