Let’s Talk About My Underwear
Do you ever think we live in a world where we dwell on the importance of things that aren’t really important? I’m about to Blog about two competing underwear brands, and I’ve Blogged about pillows and headphones, and I get obsessed with these things….
My Headphone Obsession
The start of my headphone obsession stems from the fact I hate the standard issue iPhone earbuds. I love all things Apple, but hate the earbuds. They’re hard plastic, hurt my ears, the sound quality sucks, and using them makes me a conformist and just like…
So Much Goin’ On, It’s a Joy
So much goin’ on, I don’t know where to begin. So let’s just cover two things. First, I might’ve made a poor decision when I recently bought a pair of jeans. They’re Levi’s. Good. They’re a 30-inch waist. That’s freegin’ awesome. Yes. I’m bragging…
Lung Update, or I Might Be a Hypochondriac
It’s been four years since I saw my Pulmonologist and I’ve had some ups and downs with my lungs and my coughing. I remember his words four years ago when he said, “you’ll always have this and it could get worse, but it probably…

Things I (Will) Have: Two Resumes
I have this idea that I should have two resumes. One for the life I have and have lived for 20 years, and one for the life I want. And it’s not as if my better resume has me living the life I imagine…
Things I Have: Bronchiectisis
It flared up again last night, which makes that the third time this summer. Logically, I’ll simply make a note of it, log it in my journal, and rest easy knowing that when I calmed my breathing, sat very still, and relaxed, it passed….
Things I Have: Goals and Dreams
I’ve been reading (listening to) Peter Walsh’s Lighten Up, as I think I’ve mentioned a few times here. I’m on my second listen, in fact. I’ve asked (am forcing) my wife to read it. She picked up on one of his themes …dreams versus goals….
Things I Have: Bad Habits
I always liked this saying … “if it weren’t for bad luck, I’d have no luck at all.” Get it? Like, there are two kinds of “luck” …good luck and bad luck and …tell me you “get it? For me, it’s more like, “if it…
