This is a collection of 19,814 things that my ADHD mind has puked out over the last 19.11 years.

Check out my latest entries below, some of my top remarks or some things that I love or wish for.

The latest iterations of iOS and watchOS are the buggiest, most beta-feeling releases that I can remember.

… It’s almost like apple lost focus after falling behind on AI, so the dev teams are stuck in a cycle of launching a bunch of half baked shit while leadership figures out wtf they’re doing.

Today is the first day of the holiday break that has truly felt like a holiday break.

Not sure if I’m ready to go back to work tomorrow.

Sunday, we lost our “nephew,” Elias, at just 17. He and his family fought with everything they had after an unimaginable diagnosis. He was an incredibly special kid with big aspirations.

Sending so much love to Steph, Manuel, Ian, Sherry, Elizabeth, Jon, and all who loved him. Rest easy, buddy.

Tonight after golf league, I went to a local bar with my buddy, Carson. A random dude down the bar makes eye contact and then holds up his phone with a giant photo of Les Claypool.
Points at me, then the phone.

Guess I'm out here looking like Les Claypool.

I’ve reached the point in life where I now use a pill organizer.

I also meal prepped my lunches this week.

Kill me now.

The people at fancy restaurants in the suburbs of Des Moines are so goddamned weird.

Heading back to a Des Moines dive bar to cleanse my soul.

I’ve been experimenting with going gluten free again. As a bread and beer lover, this is very hard. Last night, after a few weeks of being GF free, Kari made GF waffles and I devoured 6 of them.

6 waffles is too many waffles.

I would like someone to invent a chewing gum that crunches like chips the whole time you’re chewin.

I’m a crunchy snack slut and do my best thinking when I take a break to go munch on some chips… but I dunno if my body can take any more chips.

NGL - I’m kinda jonesin for another pandemic. Not like a real one that fucks a bunch of people up, but maybe just like role play a pandemic… and hang at home with kbroox for a year or so.

Thinking about buying one of those hats that has a word that I identify with written upside down on it.

Usually when Kari leaves town, I have a strong urge to throw a party… but this weekend, I think I’m just gonna chill.

My skin is on fire from eczema, my cholesterol is high and I have coronary artery plaque higher than 75-90% of men my age.

Getting old is a blast.

The first time leaving work after daylight savings ends… it’s so dark.

I kinda hate this time of year.

Last night, @kbroox.com and I went to a pop culture themed Halloween party as the Insane Clown Posse and won best overall costume… even after arriving an hour after voting had started, hahah.

Woop woooooop.

RIP Krut… My first boss and a seriously hilarious person, who had the world’s tiniest nipples… What a dude. ☹️
