In salute to my friend and King Dreamer Ben Arment, I decided to throw together a little rundown of my own. Here’s what’s going on:
- My son is teething. I had no idea the human mouth was capable of producing so much saliva.
- I pre-ordered both “Rework” by Jason Fried and “Making Things Happen” by Scott Belsky. I cannot wait to read these.
- Found a new (to me) coffee shop in Des Moines on a date with my wife. Smokey Row is everything a coffee shop should be–quaint, busy, local, good coffee.
- I bought two bags of king-size Skittles and two king-size Snickers on Tuesday and had them finished by the end of the day. I’ve got a problem.
- Dave Ramsey is a financial and branding genius. His strategies have allowed us to make some crucial decisions that we wouldn’t have been able to otherwise.
- Running is spiritual.
- People hate to have their traditions and routines changed or even challenged. Prepared to be ostracized and demonized if you do.
- The Olympics have been fun to watch. Although, I could do without the ice-dancing and figure-skating drama.
- I have tried for so long to like Christian music and I just can’t do it. I’ll take the Beastie Boys any day of the week. Sorry.
