  • Dream of Work

    I had a dream that I was in a world where nothing worked. Everything was broken, missing, rotted away. I was incredibly frustrated to put it lightly. Every time I went to open a door the knob would fall off, or a hinge would break. Every time I went to cook the knobs would crack…

  • Kicking virginity in the Austin

    NOTE: I found this draft post that I wrote the night before Aim went to the hospital in Austin. Funny to read it knowing what happens next. This is it. My first trip to South by Southwest Interactive geekfest in Austin. Aim has been there for the last few years an she always comes back…

  • Life is magical

    Amazing inspiring overwhelming ass-kicking magicalness. That’s why I am the way I am, act the way I act, do the things I do, work the work that I have chosen, because being alive is a fucking amazing magical thing that just to be part of it is so fucking overwhelming how could I not be…

  • Looking back

    Being able to look back through a diary, journal, or blog can be a great tool for reflecting and finding a new path. Sometimes you realize that you have been on the same path for a long time, and are still trying to fix it. I’ll get there. I didn’t get to this point in…

  • Us

    This is us. All three of us identified by our Netflix account. Just a snapshot of the moment, and revealing many moments. Several moments in every episode, for sure. Happy Valentine’s Day!

  • The Wind

    The wind blows and the trees whisper. Leaves shake and some fall. The wind brings changes and challenges. Sometimes the wind is a gentle breeze that cools you, and sometimes it is an F5 tornado that throws projectile 2×4’s through your abdomen while you sleep. Either way, the wind blows. What should be done with…

  • It’s everywhere. And it calls to me.

    Literally everywhere. In the true sense of the word literal. Every where. If there is a place, it is there. Calling, laughing, taunting me. “Here I am Bryan! Look this way! Oh, over here! I’m interesting! Wait! How about me? Aren’t I interesting? Don’t you find me interesting?” Calling out from around corners, muffled sounds…

  • Irony

    It’s pretty funny to me that when I was in an Apple Mac-centric shop, I had a WM6 phone that was always tough to get to sync with everything. Now I have an iPhone and an iPad, and work in a Windows shop, and still don’t have the computer integration that I would hope to…

  • My superpowers

    LilF and I have gotten into discussions about superpowers. If we could have any, what would they be? The discussion started with what one superpower would you want, and has grown to 3 powers, just to make it interesting. I think he has increased the number to make the conversation last longer, and to try…

  • Protected: Anxiety

    There is no excerpt because this is a protected post.

  • I am nervous about Black Mountain Ranch.

    I admit it. I am nervous. I have never been on a ranch before. I have absolutely never been on a Dude ranch before. When I was in 2nd grade, we moved from the city to the country, right next to a 5 acre ranchlet that would get 2 or 3 baby cows each summer.…

  • Short and long term reward

    What makes you tick? What gets you going every day, and keeps you going through the day? It’s a question that we ask all the time in passing, but do you ever really think about the answer? I’ve been thinking about this a lot over the last few months (years) and have had to really…
