What do you like best about your life? Least? I'll be honest... because when am I not when it comes to these questions of the week? I have a hard time coming up with what I like best about my life. I can think of a lot of things I don't necessarily like about my life … Continue reading Question of the Week #181

I Cannot Trust My Own Ears
I very rarely listen to the radio. In my long drives to and from work, I'm usually listening to audio books to fill the time. When I feel like listening to music as I'm driving around town, it's courtesy of my iPod and all the music that I know I'll want to listen to. If … Continue reading I Cannot Trust My Own Ears
True Believer
Title: True Believer Author: Nicholas Sparks Published: 2005 I know what I said after I read At First Sight. I said I was done with Nicholas Sparks. I said that I hated the man and that I was stupid for continually picking up his novels and subjecting myself to the torture of reading them. But … Continue reading True Believer
A Road Rage Rant
I drive a lot. Mostly to and from work. Believe me, that's more than enough. They say the shortest distance between two points is a straight line.

Don't get me wrong, I leave prepositions hanging at the ends of sentences all … Continue reading For What Job Am I Best Suited?

But, if you haven't been able to surmise from my most recent Question of the Week or yesterday's ranking of previous birthday parties, my birthday is this Sunday. And while there have been some friends who … Continue reading 10 Things I Want for My Birthday
Feeling the Burn
I don't like to complain. Because, for a long time, that's the guy I was. I was a complainer. For a long time, the vast majority of my old blog consisted of complaints. Mostly, those complaints were based on a job that I despised. But those complaints on my blog bled over into Facebook status … Continue reading Feeling the Burn
In the Dark
With the exception of the earliest and latest months of the school year, I can pretty much expect to make my drive to work before sunrise. I'd love to tell you that one can easily acclimate to navigating that predawn darkness, but after three years in this job and making that drive, I still struggle. … Continue reading In the Dark
