Brand
While nailing down details for my trip to Australia in November, I came up with a sort of insane plan. I’m going to do it. In recent times, perhaps since moving back from China, I’ve found that a useful guiding … Continue reading

Velcro
Drove home from work in torrential rain and appreciated my new car and its All Wheel Drive.

Lift
This is the view out the window by the elevator when I get home from work.

Meleagrine
Driving the quiet, winding, forest route to work this morning, I had to stop to wait for a line of wild turkey to cross the road.
Modernist
Apparently, the building in Greenwich CT where Blue Sky is located is of some architectural note.

The downside of living on the top floor of an apartment building is the long, slow Bataan Death March down the stairs when there is a fire alarm. 4:30am. False alarm, apparently.

Fingers
A favorite singer/songwriter/guitarist of mine, David Wilcox, took a request from an audience member one time when I was seeing him in concert. It was an older song of his, one he played rarely. After fumbling around on the fretboard … Continue reading
Onboarding
Today was my first day at Blue Sky Studios. First time I’ve started at a new company in seventeen years. The last time was in 2001, starting at DreamWorks. My second day of work was 9/11. Here’s opening Day 2 … Continue reading

Branch

Leaves
I saw this DVD lying in the leaves next to this sidewalk. My immediate thought was “Not idly do the discs of Jackson fall.”
Purgatory
Spent an hour at the DMV transferring my California driver’s license to a Connecticut driver’s license. The DMV is never fun. But then I drove home through misty forests. My gamble of being soothed by living closer to nature may … Continue reading

I ate a banana. It tasted like a banana. I ate an avocado. It tasted like an avocado. Stamford’s tap water, however, smells like pool water. (I haven’t been this wary of water since China). I’ll be sticking with bottled … Continue reading
Oil
Before I moved, a friend from New Jersey told me that pizza in Connecticut was “a thing” but I scoffed. He was right. It’s definitely a thing here. Not only New Haven-style pizza, but a Stamford-specific area variety called “hot … Continue reading
