Bravery
There are people who know what they’re supposed to do, and they do it. Then there are people who know but don’t do “the right thing.” I am in—I must confess—the latter group of people when it comes to diabetes. … Continue reading

True Confessions… Monday, 5:00AM
I have a confession. I don’t really like getting up to go swimming. Usually my displeasure is just a normal part of the transition from sleeping to waking, but some days—as I’m standing in the waist-deep water adjusting my goggles … Continue reading

Hats

Los Angeles
As I mentioned yesterday, I spent a little time in Los Angeles recently. I arrived Sunday afternoon and had a few hours of daylight to sightsee. Monday, the day of the developer conference, I was wide awake at 4:00AM. While … Continue reading

Shoulders, Elbows, and Arms
Sunday, I flew to Los Angeles to attend the bi-annual meeting of the International Color Consortium. On the way out, I did a bunch of reading and note-taking on stuff from the office. The ride was kind of choppy for … Continue reading

In the Mood for Love
This post has been sitting in my “Drafts” folder for a very long time. Today seems like a good day to dust it off and finish it, since I want to post something but lack the mental energy to actually … Continue reading

Playing Doctor
Today, Lisa and I performed surgery . . . right there next to the Macy’s at the mall. We were there after another of my early morning swim classes—where I learned to kick better—and an 8-mile run after I got … Continue reading

T1 Represent
I’m gradually learning the names of the people I swim with. There’s Pat, who I seem to have known for as long as I’ve been swimming. “Pink Suit Lady” is actually Jennifer. Then there’s Joy, who hasn’t been to the … Continue reading

Racing into New Territory
Halloween is over, but I’m still kinda scurred. Yesterday, I updated my running plan to account for the fact that I haven’t really done many of the long runs that my plan said I should. I could probably manage the … Continue reading
