I did a thing last night
Not exactly ‘storming’ the field
Amazing upset win by UConn football over #19 Liberty! For the last ten years the only thing upset has been our stomachs due to loss after loss. It’s good to have a competitive team again!
Bad Shoes
I can’t seem to find shoes that fit right. I still go to the store and try them on, and they feel fine, but then I start wearing them and they just don’t feel great.
I realize I need a few things to get it right. It needs to be the 1970s. I need to go to a department store, and a stranger has to use one of these jammies to measure my feet:
Then my mother has to press the tip of the shoe. Listen, I get that she was making sure there was some space for me to grow into them, but this process always worked. So, with these three simple and very realistic steps, I’ll be back in good shoes in no time.
Excerpt from Tao of Thoreau
PechaKucha
A new kind of storytelling for me. Telling a story with images projected in the background. Twenty seconds per image.
I’m a little nervous about it, which I love. I’ve learned that nerves are often an indication of my limits being pushed. Pushing my limits is what I want to continue to do in my life.
Sunset
UConn Hoops
We went to the first game of the season last night. I feel so fortunate to have UConn sports in my life. It connects me to my wife, family and so many friends. The communal feeling of being a fan is so valuable to me. I treasure moments, like being in an airport wearing some gear and a stranger says, “Go Huskies!”
Raining Leaves
The smell of fresh books!
I ordered 50 more for a new push to get it into stores and distribute at events. It has been selling steadily and I want to see if I can push it to the next level.
I love seeing the unknown
I was fascinated to see this hydrant before it was installed.
I have never thought about what was under the ground. Never pondered how it worked, the way it connected to water, the depth of what was hidden.
I didn’t realize I was curious about all of this before all the answers were right in front of me. It just reminded me that almost everything is fascinating, even if only in small ways.
