Travel Plans

When you go on a long-distance trip do you plan it or wing it? Do you pack with intent or do you just take the bare minimum and pick things up along the way? Do you budget or do you let loose? Do you even ask any questions or do you just trust in......whatever you …

Remember when…..

.....you were so eager to finish school and move on to this grand journey called life? You thought about how cool it would be to not have to go to History or English class, no more homework, no more tests, and no more having to sneak notes or hide your phone? Bet you weren't thinking …

Favorite Land

My wife asked me a fun question this morning that I will share with you. I will also share my answer and would love to hear your answer and reasoning. "What is your favorite land in Disneyland?" She thought it would be Galaxy's Edge because I am a Star Wars fan. Hard to blame her …

What would you choose?

If you could choose to forget any book or movie, and then re-read, re-watch, or re-listen to it again for the first time, what would you choose? Personally, I would have to go with re-listening to the audiobook Ready Player One, written by Ernest Cline, and read by Wil Wheaton. Ernest Cline is not my …

Family First

I have been listening to, and am nearly finished with, the audiobook First Things First: The Rules of Being a Warner, written by Kurt and Brenda Warner.

My Wish

Today, I was watching Mary Poppins and Mary Poppins Returns with my wife and I found myself thinking about things I never ever thought to think of.

Reading Yummies

What is your reading drink? What is your reading snack? Do you have a favorite or is there a few things on your list? Please comment with your favorites! This is something I often think about. I love to read, but I love to read while snacking or drinking something even more. In the mornings, …

Bookish Things

I am trying so hard to enjoy the Trials of Apollo series by Rick Riordan. I absolutely love the concepts that he has employed in his past works. Unfortunately, it is starting to seem like another case of overmilking a cow. It would be one thing if there was some kind of reuse of old …

My Buddy AJ

People seemed to like AJ, so I thought I would share another. This little guy is in love with his Puppaccino toy. It is nuts. He will do anything for this squeaky. Sometimes, it is actually kind of gross. Not the imagery, mind you, but how wet and disgusting the toy gets after he nibbles …

Best Friend

I have a confession. Several years ago, I met a wonderful woman. I fell in love and she is now my wife. I couldn't be happier. She is everything I wanted in a wife and there a no further words I could possibly use to accurately describe what we share. That said, we need to …
