The Happy Place



I had today off, first one in a while. I enjoyed a couple of my favorite things this morning. Rode my bike to the gym and then a coffee shop. That was the height of happy for me. I can not explain why my 2 wheels makes me so giddy but it does. The gym is a place where the stress comes out and the body gets recharged. The coffee house is perpetually a good place for me for so many reasons. It helped a lot to get those things in today while I could.

Tired and Smiling

It's always easier to take something apart than to build new. There seem to be cynics everywhere but true dreamers, very few. I am always impressed when I encounter the truly positive. They finish a tough day and are still smiling. Those are the folks I admire so much. Thank you for being out there.

The Person You Are Trying to Call is Not Available at This Time...

I lost my phone yesterday. Did not even notice till pretty late last night. That attention to detail is natural after a 27hr work day. None the less, today has been peppered with baby steps to find and retrieve the lost cell with potential success to be determined tomorrow morning. It has been a fairly relaxing day without it though. All of my coworkers were within 20 feet of me most of the day and my wife knew I was unreachable. It made for a stress free work day. It made me wonder if giving up a computer would be equally liberating?Netflix? PS3? DVD's? iPod?

It just sounds good to unplug no and again.

All This Time...

So I have been trying to figure this whoe thing out for quite a while. What the hell it all means, you know? Why are we here? What are we supposed to be doing? Then it hit me. We just need to...

Enjoy it a little more and a little louder.

Hope you all will! (Especially you... yes you.)

Weird....

Do you ever have that feeling that you are talking but no one is really listening? What about when you are listening and no one seems to really be talking?

Weird...

The Kid View of a Snowy Morning

I am far from the days of hoping when the snow is falling that school will be cancelled. None the less, with years of conditioning, there is a sense of longing to just stay home on a snowy morning. The coffee tastes better, the blankets are warmer, and had I the time, I believe the waffles tastier. It just seems right to stay in. None the less, I am on my way in as is everyone else. Maybe we'll all get a snow day soon.
