The personality trait that I think is the most telling about who people are would be whether or not people can laugh at themselves. That’s a huge red flag for me for a bunch of reasons: No one needs to share the most mortifying thing that ever happened to them with complete strangers. But nearly…

The farthest I’ve ever traveled from home was to the Middle East on deployments. There were several times where we had some down time and were able to get off base to see things outside of our very brown and tan world on the base. One of those times was in 2016. A few people…

I love how close I am to all kinds of entertainment. I’ve been able to get to amazing concerts, the theatre, and awesome things like Jon Heder and Efren Ramirez talking about making Napoleon Dynamite. That was really cool. I’ve also seen many authors speak and talk about their writing, how they find their inspiration,…

If it’s instrumental music, that would be the All-City concert that Boy #3 was in awhile back. I like live everything…

All the things that are “impolite” to discuss like politics, religion, current events, delicate situations, and other things like science, technology, people’s life stories, and funny things that seem to be universal. But I generally know when and with whom I can discuss the things that are most likely to upset people. I don’t start…

The neighborhood facebook group…it doesn’t matter what season it is, or how many times someone has asked the same questions, the group feels like a crazy deja-vu game. Does anyone know a good landscaper? Help! I need snow removal! Does anyone have a DEPENDABLE person who is also affordable? When is the neighborhood (garage sale,…
