Ah, the elusive number one. The good news is that our buying service is up year to date. The bad news is that the production side of our business has torpedoed the profits. Although we continue to implement new strategies, profits have declined for the fourth year in a row. We still have a couple of moves before we throw in the towel, but Basically Me and production is on a short leash.

Another gut punch of a movie, but as sharp and stylish as the director’s suits.

Truth be told, I left my wife and son at the bar once the tarps came out in the tenth in order to tend to my precious Hemingway and Rio, but I am very happy for my family and friends.

Brittany ended her season with a 0-0 double overtime tie. An apropo ending as soccer is about little victories made in the middle. I was surprised that I was mostly able to keep my emotions in check. After all, last night was likely the conclusion of a seventeen year shared experience with my daughter. While the sport offered a perfect medium for a father and daughter to form an unbreakable bond, I’m excited to move on to the next chapter. I thought I’d be a mess, but today I am beaming with pride.

#65: Migrate year one of the blog to this site’s archives
I finally moved two and half years of content over here so that I can look back at posts like this one in April of 2009 when I reported on getting my first passport at the ripe old age of 36. I guess I’ve been around since then.
