The Official Blog Restart - Again

All right, here we go. Something like 14th try is the charm or something or other. Over the years I’ve had some experiences, some of them worth sharing, most not. But one thing’s for sure, I’ve had multiple people at this point tell me that I should come up with a book of anecdotes or something like that. I’ve decided to compile adventures, work trips, and my personal Instagram account into this blog - which will be something of a stream of consciousness paired with, hopefully, cool pictures from trips.

One thing that I will someday figure out how to motivate myself to do is a daily image post, with a series of prompts or something. My wife Madison has a book called 14000 Things to Be Happy About, and it’s a shockingly exhaustive list of little, frequently innocuous things in life that should bring some semblance of joy to you. I feel like that’s a good starting point for prompts, but my brain obviously has to go into overdrive and tell me that no one wants to see a picture of my sandy feet or opens book and shuffles the pages “growing loofa sponges.*

Or maybe they do, I dunno. Time will tell I guess. I need to build a brand these days though, especially as a freelancer with a baby girl on the way (oh this blog will definitely feature entirely too many photos of her), so I guess I’m gonna have to force myself to be active here.
