I'm totally stealing this blog post idea from Jeff over at Notes From the Trail. He posted his own top 10 blog posts of the year recently. I meant to talk to him about it before I posted my own. I wasn't sure if he just looked at stats to see how many visitors each … Continue reading The Confusing Middle’s Top 10 Blog Posts of 2015

Two Hundred
Kids, this just happened... Now, I realize this might not be a big deal to, well, the majority of humanity. But it's kind of a big deal to me. Especially since I previously maintained a blog for over 10 years that never even broke 100 followers. In less than a year I've picked up 200 … Continue reading Two Hundred
The Single Guy vs. the Awkward Email
We can all agree that it's awkward when someone wants to set us up, right? Which is more awkward: to be set up with someone locally? or to be set up with someone on the other side of the state? About a week ago, a coworker began telling me all of the wonderful qualities possessed … Continue reading The Single Guy vs. the Awkward Email

A Dream for the Future This seems really similar to yesterday's post. As I mentioned before, I'm not really one to plan for the future. I don't know if that's a good thing or not. And, while I don't necessarily think of myself as a pessimist, I'm definitely not an optimist. I joke around with … Continue reading Day Thirty

And it won't be as detailed as the incredibly boring day I described in yesterday's post. Sunday-- When you're on staff with … Continue reading Day Twenty Six

A Talent of Mine I really don't like to brag. I mean, I know I get on here and occasionally write about how awesome I am. But, you know, that's just a shallow facade attempting to mask the decades of insecurity that rest just under the surface of my personality. More often than not, that … Continue reading Day Nineteen

A Fictional Book Kids, I haven't written a fictional book yet. I mean, sure, I've got some ideas floating around up there in the old noggin, but I don't want to share them here. Not yet, anyway. I mean, what if I have an unscrupulous reader who would take that idea and run with it … Continue reading Day Thirteen

My 20 Favorite Things I couldn't care less about raindrops on roses or whiskers on kittens. No... I can't say that. Kittens are kind of adorable. But I wouldn't call their whiskers anything close to being one of my favorite things. And when the dog bites, I'm generally not thinking of my favorite things. I'm … Continue reading Day Six

My Favorite Quote This one is pretty easy. See, on my Facebook page, I have an available list of quotes that I like. That being said, it's gonna be hard for me to pick one favorite quote. And since I didn't choose only one song as a favorite the other day, I choose to post … Continue reading Day Five
