    First Impressions

    Are you a good judge of character?

    Are completely overrated.

    I don’t trust first impressions as they are mirrors of actors on a large stage.

    Character is about consistency. Be kind to animals and return your shopping cart.

    It is that simple.

    Am I a good judge of character?

    I doubt it.

    Dogs are.

    From My Dogs Perspective

    When is my Dog most happy?

    For me, my dog makes me happy so why not look into what makes her the most happy.

    • When I go running with my dad.
    • When I curl up on the bed between Mom and Dad
    • Getting in a fight.
    • When food falls from the sky.
    • After being toweled off after a rainy run.
    • When stealing the cat’s food.
    • Fridays I am in love.
  • My Pictures of Me

    My Pictures of Me

    Is your life today what you pictured a year ago?

    I can’t say I’m the type of person who gets a mental picture of his future. However, there was one time that I did.

    Becoming a parent is one of the bigger changes in life. I had a vision in my mind of teaching my daughter to ride a bicycle and letting go and she would just ride on down the street.

    This little snippet in one’s life, played out exactly how I envisioned.

    I’m OK with that, but now it’s a memory, a pleasant one at that

    Atmospheric River

    Earth don’t know why I love her like I do
    All the changes we put you through
    because of money, my pirouettes
    we haven’t seen the worst of it yet

    I wanna know, can you tell me
    Climate change is here to stay?

    Atmospheric river, drop me in the water
    Flow into the river, dip me in the water
    Washing me down, washing me down

    I don’t know why this years so bad
    Think of all the things that tend to make me sad
    Floods are a notion that I can’t forget
    Wildfire season I would never regret
