August 3, 2010

Ok, I admit it, I’m NOT a foodie. I had to look up what a panini is.  The only other time I saw a reference to paninis was when I filled up the van at QuickTrip and there was an ad at the pump that said “Paninis are for Weenies” with a big manly looking [...]

Make Today Matter Reboot, Day 5

May 6, 2010

Ok, day five is about “tolerances” — those little annoying things you deal with from day to day that stress you out somewhat but not enough to actually *do* something about them.  They are usually easy fixes…  For example not having a wastepaper basket by the desk where you pay bills and stuff and it [...]

Lest Anyone think I Have it All Together…
