AIO and other Acronyms

Anybody heard of Adventures in Odyssey? Yeah, me too. In fact I was fixated or otherwise focused on that stuff. Adventure after adventure streamed through that cassette player atop my mom's mini van dashboard. I sit as a little kid with jaw dropping, feet dangling above the floor mates and my head in the clouds. Beautiful stuff. I figure this time of my life, like AIO, involves a bit of adventure and also a bit of lunacy. Or maybe a bit more of the later than I’d like to admit. My adventures consist less of high flying air balloons, as Mr Whittaker often traveled in, and deals with detective like activities, mainly apt searching, finding and losing them because a) the apartment is right next door to a strip club, or b) I’d prefer… ‘baking you four pies a month to live in your studio, deal?’ In other words, not a great deal of cash flow ahead of me. So join me in this new part of my life. I’ll try to fill you in along the way… hopefully I won’t reach my Whits End too soon. Cheers!

Back at it

Hello? It sure has been awhile since I returned from Spain, but I've decided to carry on my writing as I've recently arrived in Seattle. Feel free to glance through my old writing from a couple of years ago, and keep an eye out for some new stuff to follow. So I find myself in Seattle, looking for a place to live while awaiting my new job. I'll start with Habitat for Humanity at the end of August as an Americorps member and an on-site construction coordinator. I'll talk about that more in the future, I'm sure. Now that you're listening in, I'll share a few stories. Cheers and happy reading!
