Recently, I listened to the audiobook version of “Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals” written and narrated by Oliver Burkeman. It’s an interesting book that doesn’t gloss over or even deny the fact that we literally have only so many weeks on this earth before we depart it for whatever is out there beyond […]

Recently I took a vacation for the first time in almost four years. A real vacation with actual travel. As I usually do, I brought my laptop along because, apparently, I’m a workaholic. I’m kind of glad I did because it meant I could go fix a website that crashed while I was 30,000 feet […]
I’ve been been working on and off on an update post for this blog for a while. It’s gone through several different versions, and still it has not been posted. Tonight I decided that enough is enough. So, what’s been going on in my life? Well first of all I’m alive and here. Woohoo! For […]
I was video chatting with my best friend over Skype the other night and somehow the conversation got around to what I want to do with my life. I think this came up because we were talking about my financial situation which is decidedly “not good”, and right now I feel like I’m stuck between […]
So, it’s been eleven months since I started this life reboot endeavor. Last month I reported for the first time in a while. This month I made some progress, but was help up by the terrible, no good, very bad allergy season from accomplishing more. Every year around this time of the year, my allergies […]
This post won’t be so much a “check-in” with all the stats as a “check-in” on the life reboot in general. The last time I updated my progress it was about three months ago and I had fallen off the wagon a bit. Since then I’ve managed to hop back on and resume my place […]
When I work up this morning at 5:30 am, my son was already up. I could tell by how awake he was that he either didn’t sleep, or only slept for a little while and then woke up really early. Usually he sleeps a lot. Like 12 hours. I know, how awesome would it be […]
So, I missed the check in for month 6. This post will suffice to cover month 6 and 7. Month 6 and part of Month 7 just plain sucked. I made little to no progress towards any of my goals, or anything in my life really. I pretty much just checked-out of doing things, unless […]
So, it’s been five months since I started this life reboot endeavor. I did not work enough last month towards my goals, but this month was better. I Can Do This The only lesson that I learned this month was realizing that I can do this. It might be hard and I might not always […]
Ah, fall, that time of year when temperatures fall, the air gets crisper, everything is suddenly pumpkin-flavored, and in some parts of the country trees don amazingly colored coats before they throw them on the ground like old gum wrappers. I absolutely love this time of year, usually. I love the food: pumpkin bread, apple […]
