Pour that Shit Out October 1 baby, let’s ride. We made it fam, October’s here. Went for a nice run yesterday but my pace was pretty slow. Ran 7 miles at like an 8:30 pace. Was telling myself I was going to run this half marathon on Saturday really quickly but I don’t think that’sContinue reading “16”

The Emperor Has No Clothes I have to comment on last night’s debate. I told myself I wasn’t going to watch it and participate in any post debate commentary. I lied. I flipped the debate on last night and I couldn’t look away. The debate last night was akin to two people fighting on trainContinue reading “15”

Be A Little Better My dad was a hard ass growing up. If there was a Saturday where I didn’t have a bunch of baseball or basketball games you can rest assured that I was doing some sort of yard work. I really didn’t like it. I wanted to go play football or basketball withContinue reading “14”

Change of Plans I was planning to write about forgiveness during today’s blog. I had a funny story about how a kid clipped my car in a parking lot on Saturday and I ran his ass down. True story, but we’re flipping the script today. Just going to rant a little here. I *hate* wakingContinue reading “13”

Have a Full Day Wild blog from me yesterday. That took a wild turn in the middle. Just have to keep cranking out blogs daily so I can bury those crazy ones deep in the pile. If I end up really going big with these blogs I may have to delete that one. Or maybeContinue reading “12”

Make Something That Will Last My buddy texted me the other day talking to me about this blog. He told me that it was awesome and that he’s happy for me. He encouraged me to keep doing it. I’ve gotten a couple messages like that about this blog. It’s made me so happy. I can’tContinue reading “11”

Coaching I started coaching the 7th grade basketball team for my hometown 2 years ago. My one friend from high school texted me around August before that season started. He asked me if I wanted to help him out. Part of me wanted to impress my girlfriend at the time but I also wanted toContinue reading “10”

Anxiety One time my friends and I were throwing a football in the basement of our dorm in college. I think I was probably around 20 years old. It was my third college lol. I got recruited to play d3 college basketball out of high school where I was a pretty decent player. I didn’tContinue reading “9”

Voting I really don’t want to talk about politics too often but will probably do it more often that I should. I’m also in a bit of a irritable mood so this is probably the worst way to talk about this stuff but I continue. I promise you (nonexistent reader), however, that I will haveContinue reading “8”

Be careful of that Runner’s High I didn’t send the letter just yet, I still have to think more about it. I’m worried that I’m doing it out of my own self interest and would end up not being right for either of us. I think deep down I’m worried that she’s not thinking aboutContinue reading “7”
