Has honestly been a pretty good week, when it comes right down to it. Apart from the fact that as he attended to higher-end management stuff in the C suite, I ended up sitting in for the boss on all kinds of other high-level meetings all week. I have had my fill of briefing big […]

As I do every year, because it’s really, really important, I am posting this friendly reminder to all of you out there to get out and vote, because that’s what responsible people do. Sure the big show is next year, but that doesn’t mean that these off-year elections aren’t important; in fact, they are very […]

In the last couple of years, my go-to dish for pot lucks/parties/whatever is this delicious and relatively simple southwestern-style sweet potato salad. I improvised off of a couple of variations of the same I found online once when I had a bunch of great-looking sweet potatoes I picked up at the farmers’ market that I […]

Well, the proof CD is, at least. Most of it sounds pretty good, but since I have to fix a handful of typos on the back cover anyway, I’m taking the opportunity to tweak things one more time before ordering the initial stock.

This weekend involved lots of different adventures; starting with hauling us and our friends Ted and Jennyfer out to SBC to catch the oldest playing Titania, Queen of the Fairies in the campus production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, which was pretty great, actually. Spending the evening with our friends was fun, and we did […]

Spent most of the week waiting for people to wrap stuff up at the very last minute, which is how my organization rolls. It’s kinda frustrating. This contributed to a mostly consistent week-long funk, though a little self-medication helped a bit, at least on my regular Thursday night at the grocery store bar with my […]

After working very hard all day Saturday and a good big of Sunday morning, I finalized fifteen audio tracks, corrected some issues with the cover art and uploaded my final files to the duplication service. I should have a review/testing copy of World’s Okayest… in hand by the end of the week. I don’t think […]

Hasn’t been a terrible week, all told. I got some nice hiking in, had a pretty good open mic this month, made some new friends in my usual Thursday trip to have a drink at the grocery store bar, listened to the “new” Replacements record that just came out, and got some really good advice […]

As it is every week, it’s been a week. I’ve actually gotten a ton done at work, and I’ve speedwalked/hiked the equivalent of three 5k races, but I’ve gotten next to nothing done on the record. Mixed bag, that. Hoping to change that this weekend, however; I’m taking the recording rig on the road at […]

Yes, I missed the usual Friday post this past week, but, really, I don’t owe you anything, do it? Last week was pretty typical, all told. I spent a tremendous amount of time putting out other people’s fires at work, and I went out to see the second-to-last Kickers match of the season with my […]
