Last night, I got home about 30 minutes before my wife. It is funny… these times are what my Wife does best. She gave me a “pep” talk of sorts… the whole “You don’t have to care, they would nev...

Oh today. Veteran’s Day. A day I usually try to hold open in reverence and respect. This day, more than most days, I try to do those things which make me reflect on the freedoms our Veteran’s ...


Random Photo Beauty Tip: Duck lips often look silly, comical, and unflattering. If you want to take a truly sexy picture, very gently bite your lower lip. Works almost every time. .................


I realize that this job sucks. That I’ve been putting in insane hours. That the stress of being constantly on guard for my safety certainly influences how tense my body feels. And I understand ...



Oh boy, here we go! This week I need to cancel an appointment, meet a friend for dinner, do a phone interview, pack for a trip, and drive across Iowa on Friday. Monday I need to get as many ho...


It took so many years to think of the right words to say to you, that all that is left to say is: I’m sorry. Too bad I won’t even get the chance to tell you that.


Ha! My Saturday was a bust. Woke up at 9 in more pain than I could possibly describe. Decided not to fight it and just stayed in bed. Fell back asleep. Woke up from that just now at 1730. B...


Last night, I decided- fuck it. I’ve already logged 37.5 hours; I’m not going to stay an extra two and a half hours. I posted on facebook how I thought taking back my life (at least a little) w...
