Breaking Down And Buying MacJournal…I Suppose

December 26, 2010

I’ve been meaning to take Mariner’s MacJournal for a spin for a long while now, and since it’s the end of the year, and I’m gearing up, planning, plotting, scheming, and laying the groundwork for 2011, I thought this would be a good time to download a trial version (free to use for 15 days) [...]

Okay, This Is Me, Planting An Idea In Your Mind

December 13, 2010

Is it odd that one reminds me of the other? COBB: You’re waiting for a train. A train that will take you far away. You know where you hope this train will take you, but you can’t be sure. Yet it doesn’t matter. Now, tell me why? MAL: Because we’ll be together.

2010 Goals List “Review” Because, Let’s Face It, I Didn’t Do A Whole Lot Of Things On That List, Ya Know

December 9, 2010

I wrote a total of 16 blog entries this year (not including this one), which averages out to 1 entry every 3 weeks. One of my goals for 2010 (Number 4 on the list, in fact) was to “Keep my blog updated”. Oops. And I didn’t do that well on other items either. I’ve had [...]

Practicing Yoga Practice

October 4, 2010

I’ve given up on the running. It’s just too much stress on my feet and knees at this point. After each run, it would take 3 days before I could move about without pain in my left foot, and my right knee and shin. Not good. Completely opposite of healthy, in fact. Maybe I’ll try [...]

Why We Would Never Have Been Good Contestants on The $10,000 Pyramid

September 6, 2010

Saturday morning, Cindy and I drove to Tulsa for an overnight trip to visit the family and see the To Live Forever exhibit at the Philbrook Museum. We’ve been having some problems with the car lately, so we decided to take Route 66 instead of the turnpike. And somewhere along the way… Cindy Did you [...]

How FedEx Couldn’t Find One Person Who Has Seen Star Wars Is Beyond Me, But Here We Are

August 24, 2010

When you go to something called Star Wars Celebration V, you expect a high level of nerdiosity, geekitude, and dorkdom. In an environment like that the Comic Book Guy part of our psyche takes over a little more than it normally could. And that’s exactly what happened to me about 10 seconds after they started [...]

Follow Your Bliss Friday: ONCE MORE, WITH GUSTO

August 20, 2010

I don’t care what it is you want to be, or do, or have, but whatever it is, do something toward achieving it before the day is over. Don’t talk yourself out of it. Don’t overthink it. It doesn’t have to be anything big. It just has to be something. ### ONCE MORE, WITH GUSTO [...]

On the First Day of the Newbie Running Program, I Showed Up and Did Something Resembling Running

August 18, 2010

Yesterday was the first day of the my 10-week Newbie Program for people new to this whole running thing. It’s a modified version of the 8-week Couch to 5K program and led by the locally-owned Red Coyote Running and Fitness. It was not my typical idea of fun, but I’m glad I signed up for [...]

Star Wars Celebration V

August 18, 2010

First, I need to tell you that Todd and I didn’t see any of the main events at Star Wars Celebration V: we didn’t see Mark Hamill speak (but it’s on YouTube…for now); we didn’t see Jon Stewart interview George Lucas because those people started lining up at 5PM the day before (but you can [...]
