Kick Monday’s Ass: when (ridiculous) dreams come true… (Feb 14, 2022)
It’s time to Kick Monday’s Ass… I did it. I FUCKING DID IT. This weekend, I put my butt on the Four Corners, as promised. The first image is of me sitting cross-legged in a circle of cement. The second is of a kind stranger who offered to take a picture of me with all…
Read MoreKick Monday’s Ass: snow – pretty to look at, sucks to drive in (Feb 7, 2022)
It’s time to Kick Monday’s Ass… I knew it snowed in Santa Fe… I just didn’t know it snowed THIS much. That’s not a complaint, by the way. Especially since I finally understand that whole thing about “it’s a dry cold”. I’ve actually acclimated pretty quickly to snow and ice, all things considered. Generally speaking,…

It’s time to Kick Monday’s Ass… I did a “bucket list” thing last Friday… In case you can’t see the images above, that’s me in a hot air balloon suspended over Albuquerque, New Mexico just after sunrise. I’m glad I waited to Google “hot air balloon accidents” until after I got back down on the…

It’s time to Kick Monday’s Ass… It’s funny to me how you never really know what will connect with people. Even being in marketing as long as I have… most everything I put out there is an educated guess. I’m never 100% certain how people will react. The reason: humans gonna human. People are predictable…

It’s time to Kick Monday’s Ass… Life happens… have you baked that into your plans? I got a timely reminder of that last week when I came down with a head cold (I blame dry mountain air). At the same time I got a bit of good news… an article I submitted to Entrepreneur LAST…

It’s time to Kick Monday’s Ass… We’re 10 whole days into 2022… has your life changed yet? OK, I’m being bit of an asshole over new year’s resolutions, I get it. My frustration isn’t at the resolutions themselves… having a goal is great, as is aspiring to improve! My struggle is with how we go…

It’s time to Kick Monday’s Ass… “I’m sorry but I just don’t know what to pick!” That’s what mom said to me late last week when I again proposed my idea: an “experience” for Christmas instead of gifts. The idea came from me truly not wanting my family to buy me stuff (at least not…
Read MoreKick Monday’s Ass: the gift that keeps on giving (Dec 13, 2021)
It’s time to Kick Monday’s Ass… Heeeeeey December. I’m happy for the upcoming holidays, but you can keep your existential crisis bullshit. That’s not really the gift I wanted, yo. I know I’m not alone in that feeling. This time of year can be rough for just about everyone, between the extended hours of darkness,…
Read MoreKick Monday’s Ass: must stay fully clothed (Dec 6, 2021)
It’s time to Kick Monday’s Ass… I saw this at the gym yesterday and it caught me off-guard: Pic is of a freestanding digital scale at my local gym. It has a label on it that says “Must stay fully clothed.” If you didn’t already know, there’s a school of thought that says to get…
Read MoreI fought the door (and the door won) (Nov 29, 2021)
It’s time to Kick Monday’s Ass… So last night I got stuck behind a SLOW AFFFFFFFFFFFFFF driver. Ordinarily it wouldn’t bug me since driving for long stretches is just a thing I do now. But this was on a back country road in the dark (vs a major highway with a bunch of lanes), so…
