FAST MOVING TRAIN

January 12, 2010

Life is moving pretty quickly, and I’m cool with that as long as it’s mutually satisfying for myself and others. Well, I’ll settle for it being satisfying for myself, as I have no control over your happiness or perception of what satisfying means. The goal is happy people, but I’ll settle for Happy Me, knowing [...]

DIGITAL HAPPINESS

January 8, 2010

This week has felt three weeks long, the combination of lots of snow, lots of new connections to make, and endless avenues of opportunity to identify. All this without really leaving the house. My focus has been on trying to recognize when I’m getting antsy or tense. In my line of work, everything is tied [...]

GIVE ME HAPPY MOFO

January 5, 2010

I tend to agree with all of the personal development and spiritual gurus I’ve consulted in the recent years: Merely taking action for action’s sake is a complete waste of time. The trouble is, so much of our culture operates on the myth that success is only achieved through hiking up your boot straps, hard [...]

FEELS KINDA BIG?

January 4, 2010

As the New Year approached I made plenty of mental notes. Last year (2009) ended up being the sort of arrival point I had hoped for, and in some ways it far exceeded anything I had planned. That of course wasn’t without its struggles, reroutes, or reevaluations. Far too many events went down in 2009 [...]

LORD OF THE DANCE

December 7, 2009

There, there my little Monday. We’re going to be OK, you and I. The lists are daunting this time of year, but so are the possibilities of stirring up some wicked creative energy. I’m already having trouble keeping up, but that’s really not anything to worry about. I just need to expect that I’ll quietly [...]

ABE FROMAN, SAUSAGE KING

December 3, 2009

This week I feel like the Sausage King of Chicago, so you can interpret that however you wish. I had a full day of travel yesterday, waking up at 4a CST, a busy day of work and client calls, and then a quick bite when one of my favorite coworkers. My day lasted from about [...]

Oh little miss Frankie Jane. You turn 1 year old today. I can’t honestly believe that it was only 1 short year ago that I was sitting in the hospital, holding you in my arms, and worrying about how your sister was taking to all [...]

PRE-HOLIDAY THOUGHTS

November 25, 2009

Beware out there, because I’ve just run a few miles, lifted a few weights, showered, and secured yet another cup of coffee, in determination to make this one stellar fucking morning. Congratulations young Kristoffer, you have arrived. Welcome. It’s OK if it didn’t quite start off this way. I can’t be expected to wake up [...]

FROM TROLL TO WARRIOR

November 20, 2009

There are mornings where I wake and those sketchy, negative thoughts and worries immediately start pouring in. Do you ever open up your puffy, heavy eyes and think “oh shit. Really?” It can feel like people burying you with dirt.  I’m not a morning person by any stretch, but I’ve needed to make considerable effort [...]

NEW LIVE TRACK…

November 15, 2009

Good day all, just wanted to point out the addition of a new live track over in the music player (to the left of these words). Check it out when you have a sec. My dear old friend Jason Woods joined me on drums for a benefit for Akron Firestone’s Arts Program.
Even though it’s just [...]
