Back at work.

Not really feelin' it. Even kinda felt colder than yesterday.

Lyrics.

Come on, we all do it.

Borrow the car.

The car had been parked in the snow all week.

Odd things.

When stuff like that happens at the same time it's easy to start thinking they're related somehow.

Waiter.

He literally jumped up and down when he realized he already asked us. We could hear him laughing somewhere in the restaurant all night.

Lumps.

We had a scare with Spike a while ago that worked out but he is getting old.

Soup.

I not sure why the pulling the top off the can made the soup fly out like that.

Flying turkey.

I work in a two story building and it flew up to the roof.

Good hair day.

Snow storm.

What are they trying to prove?

Planning.

I set up a new landing page to promote my book for some ads I started that explains it to people that had never heard of it before.

S04 Episode 3: Bradley Flora - Photography, Painting & Finding Multiple Outlets.

There was an art installation at a local coffee shop in the fall and the artist, Bradley Flora heard my podcast and asked if I wanted to stop by and check it out. We ended up sitting down to talk, and he told me about how he’s been expanding on what he wants to do, going from photography to painting.

People.

The whole reason I started the show was to meet people and aside from me losing that interview file days like this really make me happy.

We're also trying to figure out how we want to finance this business venture. I'm pretty excited about moving forward.

Cafeteria guy.

Was just doing that in the cafeteria at work.

Annual checkup.

So I have to go back now.

Overthinking.

I know I'm not alone in thinking this way. I do something I enjoy but just feel everything else in the world is so much better. But it's not like I'm gonna stop doing it. It's a vicious cycle.

Call back.

Actually, I had Merijoy call him back she knew all the questions we were going to ask.

It totally sounds like something Prince would do, doesn't it?
