I'm on Twitter bc many people here stretch me to think harder. Sometimes I play @retro_bowl instead of paying attention in meetings.

My favorite ride at Disney last week. Taking the kids to Disney was a fun, once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Mainly because I’ll never do it again in my lifetime.

Thank you @DoorDash Inside Sales team for reaching out to me about my “large orders”.
No, I’m not catering lunches for my company.
Yes, we’re just a huge family and we order lots of food.
Apparently, often enough to trigger an alert.

Me: how do I look today?
Wife: like a dad.
Me: but I have this super cool sweater on! It has a RED bear!
Wife: meh
Will all the people who put “ex-Facebook” on their LinkedIn profile now put “ex-Meta”?

Hi @JHSFalcons @JordanFalcons, please make the awful screeching noise stop. It’s devastating.
PSA: In light of all the chaos in the world and its accompanying exhaustion, I’ve concluded that I need to refocus my life. So, I am committing myself to becoming GREAT at composting. There will be blood, sweat, and tears. But come spring… there will be nutrient rich soil. 🪴
Riding with my permitted driver.
Just dropped my first F-bomb on him.
Oh and his 8 yo brother is in the car with us. 🤦
Today, COVID finally took the life of someone I would call a true friend. He texted me a couple of months ago but I didn’t message him back. I was probably too “busy”.
Damnit.

During his sermon, our pastor asserted that some of us were world-class “napletes” and I felt so seen.
Unfortunately, I do not remember how this related to Ephesians 4 at all…

It’s come to my attention (thanks @RadiantHome, dear wife) that the pastor said “mathletes” (which is apparently a real thing) and I’m devastated.

Like COVID will be for this generation, September 11, 2001 was a generation-defining event. Like many, it redirected the expected trajectory of my life and I spent 12 years in the Navy as a direct result.
20 years later, the memories of that day are vivid.

I am deeply grieved by the firing of @dandarling. I've not met him but have read his Xmas book to my kids. We need more men like Dan.
Pls consider buying his new book with me (below) to support Dan and his family.

That exhausting feeling when your most critical meeting of the day is at 4 pm on a Friday afternoon...
What's the best part of waking up at 4 am after the toddler sleeping with you pees the bed?
Nothing. There is no best part.
Two years ago, I heard God’s voice.
Ok, not really. We were on family vacation, in Chicago, at an Anglican Church service.
The NT reading was from Philippians 2, a passage I knew well and had even memorized.
This time was different though.

I FELT the Holy Spirit say to me, “YOU ARE SEEKING YOUR OWN INTERESTS NOT MINE!”
The insanity of what I was doing hit me full in the face. I didn’t follow the sermon. I didn’t think of anything but Philippians 2:21 for the next 2 days.
It took 2 more days to accept it.
