Every Sunday morning, I run out in my jammies to grab the paper. I subscribe to the Indianapolis Star–well, up until I cancelled it this week. I am disappointed EVERY week when I flip it open. Of course, I like the ads from the electronics stores…

Josh Brunet sent me this illustration. He’s a TREMENDOUSLY gifted visual artist and I wanted to make sure I gave him props for sharing this with me. He’s done a series of these on spec for a children’s book. I not only wish I could draw this well,…

Those of you who cross paths with me on a weekly basis (not virtually, but REALLY see me regularly) know how crazy I can be because of the nature of my job’s scheduling. In the past 8 weeks, I’ve been to KBM in Denver, roughed it with KBM at Ichth…

A lot has changed for me and Kim in the past month or so. I have written the entire story here but won’t make you skim to the end to get the “goods.” The CRUX of the matter is: **Kim and I have decided to uproot and go to work full-time for [Kingd…

I ended my last entry saying I’d start off with “Stuff that Makes Sense to Me.” I’ve been keeping an Outline, but I’m finding it a slow process. I wanted to be somewhat systematic about it–sort of an intentional “Affinities” list. And in the ever…

Since posting the last I’ve had MANY conversations and email exchanges regarding these issues. There’s something here. I feel jazzed about the conversation we’re having. Though some of you didn’t post in the comments but emailed me instead! Can I …
