Trying something a little different and we’ll see if it sticks. Here are five things from this past week that I enjoyed or am grateful for. Hope you find something in here that you enjoy as well! The Tim Ferriss Show #409 with guest Brene Brown – Striving versus Self-Acceptance, Saving Marriages, and More Rediscovered …

I love travel because it drags me out of my normal schedule and patterns, tossing me into unknown situations and ways of thinking. Even something as simple and mundane sounding as meeting someone at a coffeeshop can be enough to shake up my normal routine. I guess one of the benefits of working from home …
If I’m remembering correctly, I first spotted Shopgirl while spending one glorious holiday season working at Barnes & Noble. I mean, my brain could totally be making that up just because I was surrounded by books, girls, and a shop for several hours a day, but that doesn’t sound nearly as catchy for a opening …
Perhaps this counts as cheating, but since I make the rules around here… I’ll allow it. Check out the newest episode of Free Range Idiocy where Tim and I recap our favorite moments, characters, and episodes from season one of The Madalorian.
Bit of a rough week adjusting to some new glasses (progressives because… age), so since my life is basically feeling like one big adjustment, I didn’t have much inclination to work on Adjustment.

Maybe it’s getting older, but I’ve begun to appreciate going to get a haircut a lot more over the last few years. There’s nothing quite like a fresh cut and appreciating how good it looks (at least until I get my hands on it), but that’s not the only reason it’s refreshing. Working from home …
For those who might be tuning in via my Facebook post and my post about Facebook from yesterday, welcome to Word Wednesday! Each week, I post poems that I’ve been working on in place of a more traditional blog post. If you click on the category, you’ll see lots of blackout poems – where a …
Well shucks, that sounds awfully corporate and official for some guy working out of his house, but it’s actually the best title I could come up with. The beginning of this year has been interesting and I’ve begun to think of my life as more of being CEO of Todd, Inc. rather than just doing …
