This little corner of my website is where I collect things from the everyday goings-on in my life. It’s a chronicle, exhibit, and junk-drawer all at once. I have not had a social media profile in quite a few years now, so this part of my website fills a similiar purpose to what those places did for me in years past.
I’m finally feeling better this morning, more like myself, and I feel like I can finally let everything that happened on this last trip sink in. There’s a bit of nervousness about the future, but there’s also a lot of hope and excitement.
I wish I had all of this information laid out like this years ago when I was messing with typography.
Faulty Towers, vibe sickness, and the vibe bobsled
It’s a lot of fun, but you don’t have a lot of agency in it. You sit in a bobsled, you go down an icy track, and really, there is only one way to go.
The 2 a.m. wake-up… this is where the jet lag always gets me.
It’s been a busy first day back so far. I’m already feeling ready for bed, and it’s only 1 p.m.!
This airport is such a great one to leave from. I was through security in less than three minutes.
There’s a franticness to leaving home this time that usually isn’t present for me when I travel. There’s got to be something I’m forgetting.
We’re getting a little pre-travel pizza all together before I leave tomorrow morning.
Sometimes I do get nostalgic for things, but you know what…? Old software is just as buggy and unusable as all of these here-today-gone-tomorrow web apps.
Like a college student outfitting their dorm room, I pulled two chairs out of someone’s trash tonight while on my walk and carried them all the way home.
I’m excited to eat here today. I’ve been wanting to try this place for a while now.
It’s always great to meet up with the ol’ college buddies.
I’m starting to understand that, at the moment, my most urgent tasks are doing things that give me more space to think or provide me room to be intentional.
I took eight bags of clothes to the thrift store this evening… eight bags.
The house is starting to fill up with small piles of things to pack… cords, books, gifts, clothes, etc. Travel is looming, and I’m excited.
This poor dying tree has been producing mushrooms like crazy for a month.
I just about have this old window cleaned up and ready for new glass and glazing.
I went on a side quest last week and didn’t work on my website much. But now I’m ready to pick things back up and get things in order for my trip next week. Lately, I’ve had so much fun making software for myself, or for just me and another. It’s been soul-cleansing after six years in the corporate software world.
I’m grabbing a post-lunch coffee with my good pal Dan.
