Dressing for Business

I find that I am one of the least fashion conscious people that I know. I generally only purchase new clothes once a year, and all of my shopping is done online on Gap-owned websites in the sales section. I spend probably $2-300 per year on my clothes. I want to look good, but I care far more about other things like personal fitness or growing my business.… read more “Dressing for Business”

Family & Friends

I had a wonderful visit with my family and friends this weekend in Washington. As I have past my twenties, my family especially has grown much more important to me and my old friendships have continued to be very meaningful.

I flew in Thursday night for my grandmother’s 75th birthday party and saw all my friends at dinner at their house.… read more “Family & Friends”

How To Stop Terrorism

How did the Romans stop terrorism?

Put pressure on the family and friends and community around the terrorists to stop it. How do you do that? Execute 10 or a 100 people in that community for every one that they killed in the Roman community.

This forces the leaders and the family and the friends to monitor and police their own people.

Bestemor

Flew into Seattle Thursday night to celebrate Bestemor’s 75th birthday with her. Stayed through today (Sunday) and will fly back at 3 pm. Did a management retreat with Jordan, played Wii with Justin White and Nick Fitzer and the White family, and checked out Jordan’s new house. Also went for a six mile run with the antelope Jimmy!

Stress

My stress levels have been pretty high lately. Lots of projects are needing my attention at work and I am trying to make sure we continue to offer the highest levels of service.

I probably should do more intense exercise to burn off the extra stress. This evening I think I will go to the La Cienega LA Fitness and do some heavy squats and running.

PS4?

I have been thinking about getting a Playstation 4 recently. Not sure though… might be too much of a distraction from other things I need to do.

Game of Thrones

Laurel and I have started to watch Game of Thrones and it is a very addicting show! We are almost done with the first season and we have been highly entertained. I usually give her back rubs while we watch which makes her very happy and she makes me dinner which makes me very happy. Good times 🙂
