What Is This?

So, I haven’t blogged at all this month. (The one post I’ve made from August 2011 was one written up by author friend Tristi Pinkston to promote her wonderful new book.) Life has been busy. First, the month of July was met with my wife’s family reunion and joining my dad, his wife, and my [...]

Update: I Am Alive

Yes, I’m not dead. No I haven’t dropped off the planet. I just don’t have time to blog much lately. First, I am studying for my CMA exam (Certified Management Accountant, for the majority of the world, which doesn’t have any clue what that is). So, in studying, there is an extreme lack of writing/editing [...]

The Amazing Race: LDS Authors

Guess what, it’s time for fake-reality-show-with-LDS-Authors! Why? Because I did this last year after Storymakers. And you know what, it’s just a fun tradition. First: A little about the Emmy winning Amazing Race. Teams of 2 (usually 11-12 of them) race around the world solving clues and arriving at pit stops with mandatory 12 hours [...]

Month End

Work. Write. Work. Write. Work? Write? Work? Write? Work? Revise? Work? Revise? Work? Revise? Work. Work. Work. Blog. Work. Blog. Work. Blog. Yeah, that’s basically how life has been for me lately: a bunch of confusion. See, at my job, I prepare the company’s financials. This means that every month I have gather to make [...]

Elana-ish Vocabulary

So, I have this author friend, Elana Johnson, who I’ve mentioned before. FYI, she’s seriously one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. But she’s got some interesting vocabulary terms. Actually, she’s got some cool vocabulary terms. Here are some of my favorites along with some explanation of what they mean. Awesomesauce: Loosely translated: the [...]

Book vs Movie

I’m sure I’ve hit this topic before. But I’ve had discussions recently where people say the Harry Potter movies ruined the books and my brain went haywire. So I have to rant about this topic. First, I’ve read all seven Harry Potter books. I’ve seen the movies that have been released. And anyone who says [...]

My Other Love

Now, I’m not talking about a person. I love my wife more than any other human being in this world. I love my children just as much as my wife. If I had to keep going, I think I’d go with my best friend next. Then all those family members that we’re ‘supposed’ to love [...]

Weekend Enjoyment

So, my March Madness bracket sucks now. But you know what, I get to spend the weekend with my beautiful wife without the kids. Nothing better than that. Enjoy your weekend. Alien abductions are involuntary, but probings are scheduled.

The 2010 Bronz Awards

My high school always gives/gave (if they don’t now) out paper plate awards during the Senior Assembly. They did what they could to come up with random awards, write them down on a paper plate, and announce them in the school before throwing it in the crowd. (I bet the majority of you, whom I’ve [...]
