Swinging Legs

Something struck me this morning during my doctor's appointment. No... it wasn't one of those hammers they used to use on your knee to test your reflexes. It was a thought. That's what struck me. And, yeah, everything's fine. Just a follow-up appointment to make sure all my vitals are still good after my physical … Continue reading Swinging Legs

Rainy Days and Mondays

It's been raining most of the afternoon. I can hear it splattering against the windows in my living room. All I want to do is crawl into bed and let that sound rock me slowly to sleep. I want to close my eyes and just listen to the noise of raindrops on glass and pavement. … Continue reading Rainy Days and Mondays

Darts

You know... I used to be good at throwing darts. It was one of those things that I actually got better at the more I played and the more I played the more fun it was to play. For a while, back when I was on staff with my former church, we had a dartboard … Continue reading Darts

The One With All the LEGO

Remember that time when I got called into the office and was given a $50 gift card for basically doing my job? If not, you can click here for the memory jog... Anyway, I decided to treat myself with that $50 gift card by buying something I didn't need, but by buying something I wanted. … Continue reading The One With All the LEGO

It’s Just…

I don't know... Today is another one of those days. You know the ones. I've spent the day working. I've made it home alive. But I'm sapped of all energy. My tank is pushing past empty and I'm running on fumes. Yet I still expect myself to come up with a clever blog post. No... … Continue reading It’s Just…

Awesome

I was a pretty big fan of How I Met Your Mother when it was on the air. Neal Patrick Harris' character, Barney Stinson, once said, "Whenever I'm sad I stop being sad and be awesome instead. True story." If only it was that easy.

It’s Not Fair

I know... I know... Life's not fair. And to complain about something being unfair is to sound like a petulant child not getting his or her way. But it's really not fair to wake up in the morning with a headache. I mean, I haven't done anything to deserve the headache. I've just been sleeping. … Continue reading It’s Not Fair

Crazy Day

It's kind of been a crazy day... So I didn't really take time to write anything new for the blog today. And today's craziness is gonna bleed over into the weekend. I don't typically work on Saturday, but I will be tomorrow. Isn't that great? Do I get paid extra? Absolutely not...

Potential Spam

Y'all... I received an interesting phone call earlier this afternoon... My phone rang, as is the habit when I'm receiving a phone call. The caller ID read Potential Spam, so I knew it was some kind of telemarketer or scammer who was probably attempting to dupe me out of money in some way. When I … Continue reading Potential Spam
