2024-02-11 I just thought you should know…

As I drive in my car, north on I-29 from Kansas City to Omaha Nebraska, my home, I’m thinking about how I still have not yet wrapped my head around the fact that it is 2024. Yet, here we are, already it’s February, and already AWP 2024 is in the rearview. It was my second…

2024-01-01 Welcome to 2024! 🥳

We made it! Welcome to 2024 friends. It’s officially New Year’s Revolutions month. Not a typo. Resolutions are for sissies. Revolutions are way more impactful and spinning around, circling the focal point, and closing the loop on all the uprisings is super satisfying! All the puns intended. 😜 Today is the first day of a…

Yeah……

2023-09-03 Headed for BIG MOVES, at my own pace…

I put a lot of thought into almost everything. Too much sometimes and often to my own detriment. I might argue that over-analysis has led to some really great outcomes but chaos theory has a way of throwing off any statistics I might try to use to prove my point. Which is a fancy way…

2023-08-29 Welcome to the backside slide…

…down the cheese grater of life. “Really bro?” Yeah… that’s more or less what my brother wrote in my birthday card. That and “welcome to the club.” “What club bro?” I say though I know damn well what club. Should I feel special? He and I have never been in a club together so maybe…
