Now, February 2021
Living in a snowy and chilly Brunswick, OH with my wife and our three pets.
Working for the Boy Scouts of America where I’m focused on breaking into the mainstream outdoor programs scene — not just for Scouts. We’re piloting a 6th-grade camp this spring, and hopefully some spring break camps as well.
I’ve been closing my rings every day for nearly a month and a half now. Streaks like these are really motivating for me, and I feel stronger — even if I don’t look more fit yet.
This update will be my 23rd post to this site. I’m working on making writing more of a habit, and to get more substantial blog posts up, but I’m pretty happy with HeyDingus so far.
COVID has thoroughly converted me into a work-from-home guy. I’ve always felt less distracted when at home than at the office, but now I wonder how I ever got anything done with all the people around. I really value the quiet, focus, and freedom of my home office.
I’m (still, still) reading Morning Star by Pierce Brown, and nearly finished with A Promised Land by Barack Obama, which is my bedtime audiobook.
Not playing much of anything in the way of games, except for occasional Sudoku and Chess to keep the mind sharp. I have a couple puzzle games lined up that I’d like to get to soon, though.
After finishing up several different shows, I’m watching a few new seasons of shows of Apple TV+ including Servant, Dickinson, and Losing Alice. They’re all pretty great but for very different reasons. I’ve also gotten into WandaVision on Disney+ and am making my way through the final few seasons of Letterkenny, which is a hilarious show. Palmer, with Justin Timberlake, was an excellent movie as well.
Listening to a bunch of dodie lately, and using Brain.fm to focus during work (and right now as I write this).
Looking forward to this deep cold breaking and it being more comfortable to run outside. I’m getting that itch to move that only a good, long run outdoors can scratch.
Not watching the Super Bowl.
