Accidently Good

A really good friend of mine accidently called me today. The person actually intended to send me a text message. (But if you have an iPhone you know there is a convenient button at the top of the app to call the person you are texting. If you don’t have one, get one. right now. I’ll wait …) It was a good accident since the individual won’t be available for electronic communication for a bit.

We had a brief conversation but later I thought about how now people communicate so much by text messages, tweets (Twitter), FaceBook, blog post, etc. The sound of a person’s voice (even if over an electronic medium) has unique intangible qualities. Like in this case, I was able to hear an upbeat and strong friend who is forging ahead in life.

So you see, so e accidents are good

Rub

All I will say is it is a pork rub (TWSS) and say no more.

Back in the Saddle

After two (2) weeks of time off from work during the holidays, I returned to work today. This weekend I did a considerable amount of driving. So last night I decided to go to bed early. Which for me was 11pm. It was slow going rolling out of bed this morning. I had intentions of getting to the office at 7:30am. The first day of my time off our office moved to another building in our corporate park and I wanted to unpack my box and get my workspace organized.

Considering I rolled out the bed at 7am and not 6am as planned, I made it to the office approx. 6:40am. I got a parking spot right next to the reserved parking spot at the front of the building. Parking was another reason I wanted to get to the office early. It was a freezing cold windy day so getting close to the door was sweet. At lunch time I went out buy lunch with a coworker and I told him “you are driving cause I’ll loose my spot.”

So come 3:45pm I was headed to my vehicle and it was still daylight. I am going to try and adopt this as a daily schedule. Which means now I now have 5.5-6hrs of sleep ahead after clicking the Publish button on this post. Zzzzzzzz
