If you can believe it, Emily and I fight sometimes. We’ve tried to pray the fight out of us…but it just happens sometimes. One time we got into an argument. I don’t remember what it was about, I just remember for once I was right. Being right was a feeling…

Preface: If you don’t like sports…that’s ok. Stick with me. It will be quick. I don’t know if you’ve heard or not, but my favorite football team is the Kansas City Chiefs. For a lot of my life, they’ve teetered between horrendous and pretty good (but not good enough). They…

A little context before we begin, I grew up in the razor, nokia, Nextel generation. I kind of miss it. I mean, who didn’t enjoy hearing a stranger’s entire conversation on their adult walkie-talkie? One day while in college I had a pretty big test. This was one of those…

A New Line…A New Day I love standing in line at Disney World. I know that sounds weird, but think about it. Every new line is a new opportunity to reinvent yourself for the people standing in line next to you (you know they’re listening). In some lines, I’ll throw out my Mickey voice. I’ll…
