My son is now TWO. It’s crazy. Now that the world is restarting to some extent after our pandemic response, we started vacationing. First up was Jack’s very first trip to Disney World. A party reuniting us with some of my college friends gave us the opportunity, so we scheduled my return to Disney World …

Long overdue update… (TL:DR Life is still good)
In my quest to be all the things I have been doing some of the things very poorly. On the good news front: I have completed 2 of 10 classes toward my Masters in Management Information Systems with As. I took on a new role at work. Same boss, same location, same “level”, but a …

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
A lot of changes happened in my world since I last updated this site. Our last episode of “Back When We Were Interesting” was recorded and posted in May 2017. I finished up my leadership program at work in early June 2017. I closed on a new home in mid-June 2017, with lots of work …
2017 is off to a rocky start…but life is still good!
Well, I’ve been sick for all of 2017 so far. Which means I’ve been ignoring pretty much everything, including work. I’m finally on the mend, but boy it hasn’t been fun. For the first time since I joined my company, we have off on Martin Luther King Jr. Day. I’m not making it a day of …

There’s nothing wrong with that…
“There’s nothing wrong with that.” That’s what people tell me when they realize I’m single at 44. Yeah, I know there’s nothing wrong with being single at 44. But do they really believe it, or are they trying to give me a platitude that they think will make me feel better about something I’m already …
Sorry about going radio silent…
I know, I’ve been awfully quiet lately. I took on some extra stuff this summer, most notably going back to college. I started working toward a Communications degree, and I had a 7 week online Public Speaking course. It took WAY more time and effort than I expected, in the midst of my summer of …
A Different Kind of Con – My Time at Mensa-Con
So, let me get this part out of the way first…I’m kinda smart – like 98th percentile smart and am a member of Mensa. Mensa is a worldwide high IQ organization. I have been a member off and on since I was about 12, when my Mom thought it would be cool if I qualified …

Summer Plans…aka Living
A while back I decided that I wasn’t going to wait for a partner to start living. So when I want to go somewhere or do something, I do it. So this summer’s to do list includes a bunch of things I’ve already done, but they are things that I enjoy. The summer will officially …
Con Review: Atlantic City Boardwalk Con (ACBC)
Not quite a month ago (May 13-15), I had the opportunity to attend the Atlantic City Boardwalk Con (ACBC) as press. This show was in its sophomore year, it was local, and I had friends who were volunteering as “sidekicks” so I figured “why not?” Their tagline was “Be a part of the ACtion”, and action was …

Where Are They Now?
Yes, a couple of years ago, I did an interview with my old high school. Check it out! Where am I now?
May the fourth be with you.
#Nerd That’s right – tomorrow is “Star Wars Day.” It’s a geek holiday. 🙂 How are you celebrating? It’s really basically just another day at work for me, with maybe a meme or two. I am looking forward to a geeky weekend, though, as “Captain America: Civil War” is released this weekend. I just have …
