The Job Search
I’ve been participating in a well-known tradition known as “the job search” these days. Websites upon websites welcome you with their “51 open career opportunities!!” and their bright blue “APPLY NOW” buttons. You send out your resume, you type up your cover letters, and then you wait. You wait, and wait, and wait to no Continue reading

Human Soup
California is in a drought, and as of 5 o’clock tonight, so is my water heater. After arriving home late last night, the decision to put my body in a shower or a bed was quite simple. So, I lay my head on my striped pillow, and dreamt about winning the Daytona 500. Today, amongst Continue reading

In the World of Driving
I drive a lot. As in most of my work day is spent behind the wheel of my adorable Saturn Ion, dancing to my iPod and judging the way other people drive.

The Road to Mt. Whitney (Part 5: The Summit)
Like the mornings of many life altering events, our journey to Mt. Whitney started at IHOP. The group met at our house at 8:00 a.m. and was knee deep in syrup and eggs by 8:30. Once we were fully charged with sugar and carbs, we hopped in the car and started the 3 hour drive Continue reading

The Road to Mt. Whitney (Part 4)
I have a white board calendar hanging on the wall in my room that I change at the beginning of every month. I spend a solid 15 minutes marking up all the happenings of each month, studying the days ahead. So it was surreal writing those 9 letters on the third week of the month. Continue reading
