7.612.

I’m not going to get into one thing with any real level of depth. Instead the next 10 minutes will be a perusal of ideas and other things that I like to call…

Some Thoughts:

  1. I got a text from a friend this morning who said, “I’m watching your boy on TV!” I replied with ‘huh?’ which is the appropriate response to being told that your kid is on TV when you yourself are over a thousand miles away making a pilgrimage into the backwoods of Tennessee. Turns out the kid’s game was on the local station and he did pretty good. He’s at the end of his sophomore year and this lost was the (adjusted) 10th of the season. They lose every single game. After a while of losing his performance dipped. I am thinking it might have raised back up for this last one…
  2. Also started figuring out more about this Trump thing. In short: Trump is their Obama. Yes, that is as sad as it sounds. As the father-in-law put it, they spent a real long time putting together a media machine to right the wrong, and here we are at the results of it. We won’t know the true cost for another decade, but I can say this: his entourage is ready for this presidency, and they have the House, Senate, Courts, etc.. America as we know it is gone. So, what will the new one be like?
  3. Being out here in the peace and quiet is a reminder of what balance can look like in my life. I definitely need more of this and less of the noise.
