Somethings off. We watched Julie & Julia. It took us three sittings to watch it through. In the movie, Julie works her way through Julia Child’s cookbook in a year. She, Julie, blogs about it along the way, which brings her fame. A movie is eventually made about it.

The 3D printer is awesome. The rabbit turned out pretty nicely. It’s amazing to me that this sort of technology exists. The ideas that I have for what I’d like to print with it keep coming to me in a steady wave. I haven’t written any of them down. Today, though, something else is on…

One-hundred-day streak. That’s pretty good. A few years ago, I set myself the goal of writing three hundred blog posts in a year. I think I wrote ninety-odd. I went in hot, thinking I would be able to make every day meaningful. It didn’t work.

Is there a difference between a productive day and a busy day? I think I had a productive day today but it didn’t feel so busy. Yesterday, I felt busy but not productive. I think it all comes down to having a schedule.

“Say Less”
A few years ago, I came across the phrase, “Say less,” and it didn’t make much sense to me. I asked someone to explain it to me. They did. Essentially, it means, “I understand and you don’t need to explain any further.” These days, the phrase has taken on a slightly different meaning for me.…

I’m starting to miss blogging
When the number of unread emails in my inbox surpasses around 1500, I start deleting them. There are plenty of unread emails that have been marked as read but they aren’t included in the count that Gmail gives me.

100+ Followers and Absolutely Chuffed
Thank you, folks! I was quite worried about reaching that 100-follower mark but y’all helped me out and I crossed the line. Thank you. Now that I’m here, I’m planning to buy a membership to Medium so that I can read more of your work (and send a few pennies your way). Somehow, and I…

The Final Push — 39 Left
Like others have noted, one of the best parts about asking for and seeking out 100 followers has been finding some gems. There are a lot of people on this platform who are writing interesting content and aren’t getting their fair share of reads. The response to my request has been incredible. I went from…
