Traditional Post

It seems a tradition for me to add a few thoughts while waiting at DIA to fly out. This time I am off to Southern California with Caldera. It's odd timing with the wedding now within a month, but honestly, Tiff and I have most of our work finished. There seems an endless number of choices and adjustments to make, but we are getting there. I am very excited at this point.

The rest of life feels like it is a constant hum right now. There is the still all too new job I am learning. There is the training for the New York Marathon. There is the exploring our "new" town. I say new as after 5 months, I fully understand this is not the Denver I lived in 15 years ago, nor am I the same guy. It's been good all around, but I am excited for a little down time later this year.

All things considered, I am pretty good with where everything is. This week away will be surreal, but I think beneficial. I miss Tiff and Estes already.

Denver buzzing



Running and planning. It's a good life to be sure. Right now I am trying to keep all the balls in the air and it's not bad. The job is always presenting a chance to learn a new trick. My bag is gaining some I never thought I'd like. It's a living and I am thrilled to be working with some great people. I miss the carefree aspects of my Chicago employments though and I am learning that my various attempt at sustaining myself have led to some damn weird stories.


Slowly, Denver is starting to feel like home again. I am continually reminding myself, this ain't the same town I left 15 years ago. Tiffany has truly helped me remember this. Just last week, she showed me a neighborhood I never knew existed. As a bonus, it had one of the best sushi I've ever had in my life. Sushi den, go there.I t helped to find this spot that had a charm I have been missing. While the conveniences of the suburbs are still nice to have at the finger tips, there is something so great about a block you will never see the same shops on another. The inspiration began to flow.

There is a lot, as usual, happening. I am enjoying it, but still looking for that normal feeling. Maybe I just need to get back on the bike. Heh.

5 Minute Rant

I am fascinated by being able to publish Stupie from my phone now. Thought I would se what I could say in a short break frrom work. So much goin on. Wedding plans, full time job, tons of free-lance design, and marathon training. I yearn for a free Saturday afternoon, but could not be happier about the full platr I have. Asking for a stronger back has never felt better.
