  • Accidentally Showering

    One of my daily goals is to take a shower. Sadly this is the one I struggle with most. My youngest son has been melting down for the past five hours. He has requested a bath twice but hasn’t let me give him one either time. My wife has had to step in twice. On…

  • Feed the Washing Machine

    What’s one small improvement you can make in your life? Right now at this very moment I am wearing my last clean pair of pajamas. I need to do laundry. It is a small improvement that will get done. If I were to pick something else more random and say I’m going to do that,…

  • An Old Priest

    Share a story about someone who had a positive impact on your life. When I was in the phase of my life that I did the most soul searching I was friends with an Episcopal priest. I shared with him my spiritual yearnings and the things I was writing at the time. He was always…

  • Freedom to Think

    What does freedom mean to you? I’ve been discussing Victor Frankl with my wife Stephanie and we’ve been arguing over what it means to be free. I hate to admit it but she’s more libertarian these days than I am. She sees only a very broad definition of freedom as freedom at all. This is…

  • Say No To Fundamentalists

    What public figure do you disagree with the most? As anyone who has been following along knows, I have a wide range of spiritual interests and influences. So just in general fundamentalism bugs me. There is, and I am sure of it, wisdom outside of Christianity and Mormonism. I find fundamentalism within Mormonism most egregious…

  • Executive Functioning

    What is your career plan? My brain is good at absorbing information. It is also good at retaining information. What it is not good at is putting all that information to good use. In the course of discovering what autism meant in my children and understanding how much of that they got from me, I…

  • Backstage Pass

    What was the last live performance you saw? I have a buddy named Danny who is a professional musician. He occasionally takes me to his gigs for free. My wife and I went to see him in a local bar a few years back. That is probably the last live performance I’ve seen. There might…

  • Randomness in Art

    Very often when I do a digital design I do not have an end in mind. I try to make at least one every day and the process is very often the same. I start with a kernel of an idea, try to execute it, and decide if the execution was successful. If it was…

  • Staying Home

    What do you do to be involved in the community? Sadly I am not particularly involved in our community. I did some volunteer work last summer. I try to make it to church though even that hasn’t been working very well lately. The health of my family necessitates I remain in the house much of…
