A day of interesting possibilities.. not bad for a Monday. The day started off with our realtor coming by with someone interested in submitting a bid for new carpeting, for the house. I probably could’ve been a little more lively when they came by, but it was unexpected. We were focused on getting our ducks …

Day 19,633
I kind of went off on a bit of a tangent today, and paused to recall a bit of trivia about Robert Fulghum, the author of the book “All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten”. Mr. Fulghum (who I would like to think as more of a ‘Bob’ guy), once wrote about …

Day 19,632
It’s been a good day. Kind of celebrated Father’s Day a day early here. My wife is jetting off to Washington, DC for a short trip tomorrow, so we did a little bit of a recognition around here late this afternoon, after Dane & I got back from a gaming day in Topeka, and before the …

Day 19,631
I don’t consider myself an “alpha”. I’ll step up when someone needs to step up, but I’ll be the first to admit that when faced with some jackhammer that thinks he has something to prove, I’ll gladly step aside. There have been more than a couple of times in this existence that I should have …

“This is no social crisis Just another tricky day for you” – The Who There’s a weird kind of stillness in my environment right now. Almost like a calm before the storm. Left-leaning folks and right-leaning folks seem to building up the tension, like fans on two sides of a soccer match, waiting for something …

Day 19,629
Well, crap. I messed up again. Funny thing is, I remember sitting in my chair last night, laptop churning away, and thinking about my blog post for the day. Right before the “Death from Above” attack of the distraction monster. They lurk. They stalk. And just when you think you’ve found a safe corner away …

Day 19,628
One of the side issues of having a heart condition is learning to deal with stress. I have had atrial fibrillation I have had atrial fibrillation since my late twenties. Somewhere along the line, my heart was broken. Yeah, there’s probably a minute of good jokes in there somewhere, but I haven’t spent a lot …

Day 19,627
Every now and then, I do something I later regret. At first, I thought it was the right thing to do. Early signs gave me a false sense of security and reinforced what I now consider to be a questionable decision at best. I maybe have been too rash. I unblocked everyone I had blocked …

Day 19,626
There are some movies that people that practice Christianity should watch. I’m not going to get all maudlin over “The Ten Commandments”, “The Greatest Story Ever Told”, or “Ben Hur”. Those were great movies from another time. I saw “The Last Temptation of Christ”. I half expected David Ruffin to appear and sing a song …

Day 19,625
Today I spent a good chunk of the day getting ready for the class I’m teaching next week, Microsoft course number 20533. Truth be known, I’m glad I double checked a few things earlier in the week, as I thought I was teaching Exchange 2016, but I was wrong. I had received notification of some …
