It Can Always Get Worse
I know that I have blogged about this before, but I have to say it again. No matter how bad things are, they can always get worse. For example, my ankle has been hurting for the past several hours. When I got home, I took off my shoe and the sharp pain in my ankle…

Walking The Wrong Path
I am pretty good at my job. Not great yet but pretty good, and I am the type of person who at least tries to be great. I think that is part of why I have been feeling frustrated lately. Another source of my frustration might be because I am in a production position again.…

Something That I Just Thought About
Since I was laid off last year, I have spent most of my days taking care of Stephen, getting Stephen from school or once I got my current job, dropping Stephen off at the babysitter while I went off to work. However, this fall Stephen will be going to school all day. I will be…

Advice For The Newly Incarcerated
One of the greatest television programs of all time was Homicide:Life On The Streets. It was perfectly written and acted with scenes and characters that will stick with you years later. Not too many other shows can make that claim. One such scene was between Frank Pembleton (played by the great Andre Braugher) and a…
