Baseball and Bikers
I’ve got 23 minutes to kill before my meeting. I could prep for it by preparing some helpful insights for my client, but I’ll pass. Nothing promised, nothing delivered. Keep expectations low.

Temptation’s Tipping Point
I know I’m supposed to strive for equilibrium in life, but you know I love me some Cedar Point. Wednesday night I stayed up until 4am watching The Bridge. I was falling asleep near 2am but decided to eat a bunch of candy so I could ride a sugar high later into the night. I…
