Kaplan gazed into the black and cataloged all the regrets he had in life. He was also lamenting the lack of an accessible toilet in earth’s orbit. The space shuttle was just vanishing over the blue horizon, leaving him very much alone now. The astronaut cursed his nervous bladder. It was a hell of a […]
Posts will be sporatic for the next few weeks. I’m currently fighting off a funk and losing. After that I’ll be on a plane for Christmas vacation asuming I’m well enough to travel.
