Work has been rocking this spring – both in workload and literally with music. First, Toyota Texas Music Revolution: Then Kevin Fowler downtown. This job is probably the most fun I’ve ever had.

Better at Paint-By-Number
Finally got around to taking a painting class. To get it done required girlfriends and wine. That’s not a bad thing, in my mind. Anyway, we celebrated Cathy’s birthday by being artsy. She’s artsy, so this fit. My goal was to paint this: This was my finished product. Not quite the same, but not horrible. […]
A Donkey (Mule) Date
This is a love story between a girl (Shannah) and a Jack Mule (Pancho). I’ll let Twitter tell the story:
Eye Spy | A Warby Parker Review
Let’s just put this out there: Getting older sucks in some ways. Just as you’ve dug into new levels of self-confidence and self-awareness, along comes crud like biology and the inevitability of age. For me, it’s eyesight. I struggled with horrible blind-as-a-bat eyesight for years. Then I had lasik eye surgery in 1998 and everything […]
Becoming a Mix-Master

Brewery Fun | Lakewood Brewery
There’s a reason why I keep a 101 list – for summers where we’re so busy that we just want to nap when we have a bit of downtime, it’s a reminder to carve out time to do fun things. The 101 list was the reason we wrapped up a weekend with friends at Lakewood […]
Absolutely Not…Ok, Let’s
When I joined my team just over a year ago, I was told the team loved to go bowling. In fact, bowling would be a great idea for a holiday party. Absolutely not, I said. I may have my own bowling shoes, bowling ball and towel, but we aren’t bowling for a holiday party. So […]
Coldplay | Dallas 2016
Our third time to see Coldplay. Just as amazing as the first two times. Or maybe a little more even. A Coldplay show is a mixture of art, music and full sensory engagement. Masterful!
