Last night, in attempt to get the recommended amount of sleep, I got into bed at 9:30pm. Honestly, this wasn’t an exercise to go to bed earlier as it was to force myself to make some headway on my Book Club’s book I have to finish by next week.
However, I did fall asleep much earlier [...]

Not only did he steal an extra hour, which I normally don’t realize is important and therefore have never really cared missed (as opposed to hours wasted in long horrible movies, months in a stupid dumb ass relationship, or years worshipping a superficial ideal - I get how those are wasted, but one hour, puhlease, I waste [...]

On my drive into work this morning, I was noticing the time, and that I was running really late. It occurred to me that it would probably the latest I have arrived at work yet.
First, this started to worry me. Periodically in my life, I have been a tardy person. Professionally, this tends to happen [...]

One of the mental switches I’ve made in this new year is how I think about my life. Upon reflection, I view my life as pre-life and post life. This really doesn’t make much sense because I’m actively living what I reference as “post-life” but I like balance so I guess the terminology works.
My pre-life [...]

After taking the time to move myself down south and get settled, with some hiccups (what’s some driving through tornado warnings and thunderstorms or movers showing up two days late?), I’ve made it to my new city.
And as of today, my new job. Things are overwhelming, I don’t think I’d anticipated how much it would [...]

I depart tomorrow, where I will drive out of the driveway of the house, which I’ve called “home” for 25 years, even if I haven’t exactly spent all of 25 of them living here. I suppose it’s fitting that in the 25th year, a quarter of a century, is the year I leave not just [...]

Moving man: “Feels like we’re getting married with me making you sign all this stuff, huh?”
Me: “I hope you have good insurance”
90% of my life is packed in an a truck somewhere, waiting to be pulled off, stored, moved onto another truck, where eventually it better meet me in Texas.
