Do the work, and the excitement will come!
Last week was one of the most productive and enjoyable weeks I've had in a really long time. It was one of those weeks where I found myself singing, "Oh, what a beautiful morning" as I skipped out the door heading to work each day. Everything was going my way!
At the start of this week, however, my song had turned into a quiet hum; and my skip, a lazy gangsta lean. "What happened...where'd it all go," I ...
I love it when a movie inspires me with a new recipe. Recently, I watched the adorably delicious movie, "Julie and Julia," and experienced a foodgasm of epic proportions watching Meryl Streep & Amy Adams create culinary masterpieces in their kitchens. While many of the featured dishes put me in a "I gotta cook that!" frenzy, there was one meal in particular, made my Amy Adams' character "Julie," that sent me running to the supermarket! The Tomato ...
I haven't done a Good Job, Jesus post in a really long time. I promise I'll bring back the hawt boys, but tonight I gotta give it up to something I just came across that totally made my day!
Surfing through my Facebook friend's statuses this evening, I came across this video, courtesy of an acquaintance of mine, that just made me feel so very good! Let's see if you get as excited as I did when I watched it...
Ok, a little tidbit about me. I LOVE ...
When I worked at Google, one of the founders boasted (or joked) that he has a dream of, and is working on, building a space tether that will reach Mars. Recently, a friend told me of a dream he has to visit outer space- which will soon be possible as there are scientists working on a space-age vacation of sorts that will allow regular people, with the financial means and good health, to travel beyond the perimeters of earth. My friend fully intends to ...
It's Thursday--halfway through my new blog design challenge-- and I've already posted 3 of my required 6 new entries to Evolution Of A Man. Methinks I'll be earning a new blog template soon!
And does this entry count as #4? You betta believe it! :-) ...
Have you ever had one of those awesomely great and productive weeks that led you to raise your head to the heavens as ask, "God, what are you up to?" Yah...I'm all up in that space this week. I'm certain that God is right at work in me and my life; and He's about to show up and SHOW OUT!
It all started last Tuesday. I went to my weekly prayer meeting, Touch and Agree, in a rather solemn mood. I felt as though my life was at a stand-still. Sure, there ...

A friend of mine had a birthday party this evening; at which I surprisingly (and tipsily) mingled and networked like I never have before. Maybe it was the alcohol, or maybe it was the current grind and ascension mode I find myself in these days, but I was really ON tonight!
I met a handful of people, with whom I engaged in a variety of ...
I awoke to the sound of rain this morning. As I looked, from my bed, out of the window, my first thought was, "aww fuck, it's raining. I got shit to do!" Then a voice within me---in the manner of my very own British manservant-- replied, "Not to fret, young William. Today, is Sunday." A sigh releasing from my lips, I plopped myself back onto the mattress and exclaimed, "Oh, Jeeves! SUNDAY!" All was beautiful and perfect in the world, once again.
As per ...
So, here's the deal. My blog needs an upgrade. Not only have I been rocking this same template for, like, 3 years; but also, I haven't been on a consistent writing cycle in damn near the same amount of time. I've been slippin' stylistically (is that a word?), and as a writer with some damn talent. Not good.
I know I've said this a bazillion times, but it's time for me to get myself together and start acting like the successful, intelligent, ...
