100 Words 001

It’s been a while since I’ve blogged. Almost a month actually. The shame is that the last post was by far my most popular blog post ever, thanks to it getting picked up by BGR. It’s perhaps a winning combination of me being incredibly busy at work, planning WordCamp Scranton, traveling, working on side projects, and wedding planning.

Because of that, I’ve decide (with a prompt from Colin) to try out 100 Words for 100 days, which perhaps was started by Jeremy Keith.

I will likely pepper in some actual posts, but I think this will be an interesting exercise.

The way it works is you connect a bank account, it spends a couple of…

    I’ve been trying to read more; it isn’t working out the way I had hoped, but I’m still making the effort. I have started at least 3 books without finishing them, but right now I’m reading Gumption by Nick Offerman. I loved Paddle Your Own Canoe and couldn’t wait for the follow-up title by Ron Swanson. It’s 21 essays…

  • Great Win by the Yankees

    I’m a die-hard Yankees fan who grew up in the 90s. I’m a little spoiled. I honestly went into watching last nights game assuming the worst and hoping for the best. Thankfully they won. It wasn’t the cleanest win, but it was a fun game to watch. On to Game 4!
