It is 6:30 PM on Wednesday, July 11th. For the past couple days I really haven’t been feeling like myself. With all the changes recently (and beer in Asheville) my mind was in a fog. It is only after a brief workout today and getting back into the routine of work that I feel a…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 7.11.2018

Thoughts on Ethnicity
These days, especially under the Trump administration there has been a lot of division. This has been seen with Trump refusing to denounce the white nationalists and forcing the NFL players to stand. The NFL players are protesting what they see as police brutality, but it goes deeper than that. Here are my thoughts. The…… Continue reading Thoughts on Ethnicity
Journal Entry – 7.9.2018
It is 8:49 PM on Monday, July 9th. Today was the first day where I really got down to work in the new job. I set appointments, made appointments, listened to conference calls but most importantly learned. I learned that I need to hit the ground running and that I have a lot of free…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 7.9.2018

A terrible storm went through the airport and I think this is only the second time I’ve been in an airport that stopped all traffic due to inclement weather. I learned that when the flashing light outside turns red…… Continue reading Flight Delay in Charlotte NC
Asheville North Carolina Trip
It is 1:22 PM and I’m at CLT. The two week vacation is now over and I’m heading back to California. As usual the trip went quickly but Asheville in particular has been a complete blur due to all the activities, kids running around and of course local craft beer. We arrived last Saturday and…… Continue reading Asheville North Carolina Trip
Ohio – 6.28.2018
It is 7:38 on Thursday morning at the end of June. I’m sitting at Stauf’s Cafe in Grandview enjoying the cool morning air and people watching. The people watching is interesting because there is a difference between the population here and that of San Francisco; it has been a long time since I’ve seen Ohio…… Continue reading Ohio – 6.28.2018
Ohio – 6.24.2018
I’m at Stauf’s cafe on a quiet Sunday morning and have had my mocha can chocolate chip scone. I like getting here early while the sun is just rising over the houses across the road and the weather is cool. I arrived at 7:58 and wondered why everyone was just standing around. It turns out…… Continue reading Ohio – 6.24.2018
