A little something about me, as if this whole website wasn’t, I’m really not a sports fan. My favorite part of football season is the empty grocery store while games are on. I do enjoy going to games because of the spectacle but I couldn’t care less about stats or records. I have no interest in any sport, except maybe skateboarding but that isn’t really a sport. I find sports on TV to be grating. I think that putting on a football game during Thanksgiving is the equivalent of taking a big steamy dump in the middle of the living room. It’s obnoxious, irritating and unescapable. That being said, guess who is now a volleyball coach… I made a new t-shirt. Based on the drawing that I also turned into a gif a couple weeks ago.     Pretty happy with how it turned out. I’m still having a bit of a problem wearing my own shirts. I really...

  Holy cow, am I looking forward to summer. The kids have their last day of school coming up and I am ready for it. Now that my kids are getting a little older we are able to do things that we couldn’t before. The last few weeks have been pretty stressful planning everything out and getting everything in line but things are now in place and summer is almost here.     I’m making this a beach summer.

My work is going to let me shift my hours some so I can get out early and spend the day catching the rays.     Next will be the brats, bbq, potato salad and baked beans. Not to mention beer gardens should be popping up any minute now. Yeah, it’s just around the corner and I...

  Sorry. This is going to be one of those posts. I’ve been having a little issue lately. It is one of the reasons I have been taking time away from social media. I don’t really think social media is a net good but that’s not what I’m going to write about. Instead it’s something that I’ve seen happening with one person in particular. You don’t know this person and he will remain anonymous for reasons that will become clear.     The person is someone from my past. I guess you could say he was a mentor. He probably wouldn’t label himself as that and until the last few days I wouldn’t have labeled him as that either, but after alot of thought I realized that was exactly what he was to me. He was a cool older guy that I used to play music with. I knew him at a time when I was trying to figure out who I was. He was open and...
