OK, maybe they aren’t tornadoes … but wow, did this look scary!

I’m in Phoenix this week to present a couple of seminars on web design for a Christian communicators group and had a moment to sit in the cool air, with a coffee in hand, for about 20 minutes of pure, quiet, peaceful reflection.

This was the photo I snapped with my phone.

… I’ll let it explain the rest.

We’re hosting an Office Returns party tomorrow night …. and I think judging by this clip alone … it is worth the wait!

…. I almost died, that’s what I did!

I don’t talk too much about personal things here … but it’s been a long, dry spell with the Writer’s Strike and this was overdue.

My favorite show — NBC’s The Office — went to reruns. Don’t get me wrong … I love Office reruns, but after watching every episode of Season 4 at least 5 times (each), I practically memorized it and needed fresh stuff. (Yes, I’ve watched the previous seasons too, with the deleted scenes).

So here’s what I did with my free time during the infamous Writer’s Stike of 2007-08: Read More→

I’m going to take some of this advice on how to say no gently to heart.

Today, I’m officially 31 years old …

Wow … last year, when I turned 30 it was a deep time of reflecting on my life and where I’m at, etc. This year is no different.

This year, I’ve made a couple of realizations:

• I’m getting more and more grey hairs popping up
• I can eat everything I did when I was 20
• I think more about health insurance — or aka stability and security — than adventure and job hopping
• I love having three weeks of vacation every year and bosses who let me do what I’m skilled to do

It’s just real interesting all of this …

My question, as it was last year, is … how do I want to spend the next 10 years of my life?

Where do I want to be when I’m 40?

Good questions indeed … one I’ll be talking to my Lord about …. seeking His wisdom and guidance.

OK, there’s my self-reflection for today.
