On my commute to work, many times I find myself turning off the radio and contemplating the problems of the world to rhythmic sound of my 4-cylinder engine. That was the case this morning, and my mental quest was to establish, once and for all, a definitive ranking of condiments. Let this be your guide when deciding how to garnish that over-cooked meatloaf. Read the rest of this entry »
Moonlighting
With the increasing increase of gasoline prices, I’ve been mulling over some options to get some extra cash. Here’s a list of my ideas so far, any of these are available for your purchase:
- Using my body as a billboard: for the right price, I’ll tattoo your company’s ad on my body.
- Auctioning off my Draw Something illustrations.
This could be yours! If the price is right...
- Doing any homework you might have.
- Providing reviews and my strong opinions on movies I’ve seen.
- Liking your Instagram picture of your child/dog/coffee. (extra for a comment)
- Will be your date if you’re a woman between the ages of 18 and 39. Okay, 42.
- Re-write your resumé.
- Re-write your resumé well.
- Laugh sincerely at your jokes/you.
- Balance your checkbook.
- Do your grocery shopping.
- I only need one kidney.
- 1/2 a liver for sale.
- Selling first-born to Exxon.
Any ideas you’d add to the list? I’m willing to try anything at this point.

18 v 30
I never saw it coming.
They always say it does. They warn you. They try to prepare you. But there’s no warning or preparation that is able to meet the challenge of… growing up. It’s like this picture of Chuck Norris.
Random and unavoidable. Read the rest of this entry »
Why Jason, Jr. may not happen…
Kids are awesome, right?
That’s what I’ve heard at least, so I’m going to go with it. And from looking around, that’s what people do – pop out some kiddos. Sadly, I don’t think I’ll be able to be in that demographic, and it’s not because there’s no girl around – which is some kind of necessity. Rather, I think the people who know me are going to prevent it from happening. Read the rest of this entry »

I’m turning 30 – so let’s rock this joint.
This January 9th, it’ll be 3 decades (that’s 30 years for some of you) since I gracefully entered into the world, accompanied by many choirs of songs, shouts of exuberance, and many high-fives. My mom has a distinctly different description of that day, but I think mine captures the essence. Regardless, I’ll be turning the big 3-0. Not sure what happens at that point, but I’m sure death is just around the corner from there. So since the time is limited, will you help me make this a birthday of significance?
I love presents, but save those for next year. Turning 31 sounds boring, so I’ll need extra goodies then. This year, however, how incredible would it be if we joined forces and really made a difference? To change some lives?
Below is list of various organizations doing some amazing things around the world; ones that I’m currently supporting or have supported in the past. For my 30th birthday, would you join with me? Instead of that fancy Armani suit you were going to get me (suit jacket is a 40R, by the way), would you consider a one time donation to one of the following?
- World Vision www.worldvision.org
- The A21 Campaign www.thea21campaign.org
- International Justice Mission www.ijm.org
- Samaritan’s Purse www.samaritanspurse.org
- SafeWorld Nexus iamsafeworld.org
I’m not leaving you to by yourself! I’m using any received birthday monies to do the same, and increasing my overall giving this year.
If you choose to join me, shoot me a text, email, leave a comment, find me on Facebook – something! Let me know that you’re on this adventure with me.
