Don't call your wife repeatedly at 5:30am her time wondering if she's just sleeping and will eventually answer the phone or if the next voice you hear will be that of a police office or hospital worker because you're worried that she didn't make it home in the rain last night before you check your [...]

I'm in Indiana again. Without my own car again. This will be the last week. No, really.
Jess' cousin came to visit last week. Much fun. We had blast at the Halloween party last Saturday. I went as a bad undercover cop. Thanks for being such a generous host, Skwid.
I got 4 "job offers" last week. [...]

There's a lot you can learn from a Heroin Junkie. There's a certain glamour in doing whatever pleases you most and answering to no one but yourself and, of course, your addiction. When you boil away all the impurities it becomes clear what [...]

So it looks like I'll be in Indiana again next week. I'm beginning to feel a bit like Josh, though. It's one part glamorous, one part business-man feeling, and one part utterly annoying. This should be the last one, though.
Being here without my own car is starting to get very old very quickly. I don't [...]

We were a corn field dressed in fall colors;
Each beautiful, vivid, trembling leaf
a glorious indication of the cold end.
We burned our safe green hues at one another.
One last display of Yellow, and Red
and deep, deep, Orange.
All of our secrets clearly visible in the veins
that held our various colors together.
And our eyes never closed
for fear of [...]

Jess and I will be hiking at the "Cedar Ridge Preserve":http://www.audubondallas.org/cedarridge.html this afternoon. We'll be heading out from our house around 1pm. If you're interested in coming along, lemme know.

Thanks to good friends, old friends, new friends, great conversation, and low cut shirts, Jess and I had a great time Friday night out at Jupiter House. Enough, perhaps, to make this a recurring, informal gathering. More on that later.
I spent yesterday hanging out with my Grandparents who are in town until after my sister's [...]

Pssst. Coffee tonight at 9pm at the Jupiter House in Denton. Pass it on. Email or text me dirty pictures or messages in order to confirm your intent to attend.
If it's too crowded we'll form a conga line immediately across the street and parade around the square singing "Day-O" until some seats free up.

Hooray for Emergency trips to Indiana.
I trained two full classes of 25+ people. I taught. I joked. I made friends. I had fun. I made up a large portion of the training material on the spot having never performed the task, seen the task performed, or read information on how to perform the task. That [...]

Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you. I'm in Indiana again through Thursday. It's raining here. Again.
This is the first trip I've taken in a long time where I didn't bring my camera. I brought the smaller point and shoot, though. We'll see how this goes.
Email me. Text me. Picture message me. Love me.
