I love my blog…I hate my blog

Friday, April 25th, 2008

I have a love/hate relationship with my blog.  I’m pretty committed to posting no less than 4 times a week, usually 5.  And I try to post stuff of substance, the best I can.   Sometimes it’s a very energizing outlet for me.  It gives me a platform to flesh out ideas in a different way [...]

Confessions of a Workaholic

Monday, July 9th, 2007

It’s past 8:00 pm and I’m indulging my workaholic tendencies. Holly and the boy have abandoned me until Thursday night. They’re in North Dakota, visiting Holly’s sister, and I’m at the office. I would sleep here if there was a shower. I miss my family deeply, but I love my work. So I’m numbing the [...]

You know what I do for fun?

Tuesday, June 19th, 2007

Go ahead, take a guess.
What do you think my hobby is?
When I have some time to relax, what would I rather do than anything in the world? (Other than spend time with Holly and Elijah)
