Song
If you don’t occasionally burst into song when you finally finish a long shift, what are you doing with your life? Sing! And be awesome!

Meatloaf (not really)
Epic Cooking Fail In my early twenties I lived in a house with six other guys. We rarely had anything that could be considered a meal. We were broke and hungry most of the time. I splurged and got a pound of hamburger. I wanted to do something special with it. I remembered or more…

Awake Again And Again
I got to sleep at around 11:30pm and woke back up at 2:00am. After two and a half hours of sleep I feel completely well rested. That is an illusion of course. If I try to stay awake until the end of my shift this evening I will be in terrible shape. Here’s hoping that…

Leading the Way
Do you see yourself as a leader? I am neither a good leader nor a good follower. I prefer to journey with people. I enjoy the road we both are traveling. Sometimes I do lead but it is usually reluctantly. I question authority on a fairly regular basis and that includes any authority that might…
