[audio:https://www.brainofshawn.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/yeahivegotgoals.mp3] I keep reading how important it is to set goals. Not just set them, but write them down. I’ve never really been one to do that, and at the same time, I rarely meet the goals I do have (but not written.) So here’s the deal. I’m going to write some down. You do the same. I don’t really … Read more
I just realized (OK, my wife realized for me, bless her heart), that although I talked about my awesome t-shirt gift that no one understands, I didn’t give any credit to the givers! I guess I just assume my brain is open for all to see, and expect you to read what I think, not what I type. So here’s … Read more
I suck. Apparently, it’s a law that one must fully stop at the end of a private drive before entering traffic. I’m ashamed to admit I didn’t know that was a law — but unfortunately, the police officer that pulled me over was quite aware. I don’t really want to talk about it.
Back in 1985, things were cool. If you disagree, you’re either too old or too young. The 80’s were my heyday, and I’ll always identify with everything from that decade.

This week is CRAZY!!! We’re running Vacation Bible School at our church, and we’ve been overwhelmed with the turnout. It’s a good problem to have, but stressful! I probably won’t be blogging as much as normal, but here’s a link to the daily photos we’re taking.
I slowly see myself growing up. Sometimes it catches me off guard, and makes me look back at the days of less stress and less responsibility. It’s funny for me to consider paying off our current vehicle, and then saving thousands of dollars to get a new minivan when this one finally drives to it’s last soccer game. It wasn’t … Read more
OK, I’ve already changed my mind on the “every article in MP3 thing.” Mainly because I’ve avoided posting because I’m not in a place I can record myself, and also because some things are too lame to have an audio version. “I think I should mow my lawn today” Has no place in a podcast, unless that podcast is a … Read more
It rained yesterday, and it seemed that everyone was gloomy right along with the weather. I LOVE the rain. I relish the closed in, cozy feeling when clouds are squeezing the town in a big hug. Don’t you just love the rain? [audio:gloomydaybliss.mp3] Download Audio File Here
I had a big ol’ bunch of white space in my header graphic — and I thought it would be cool to have some comics in there. I created a comic with the “Comic Strip Generator“, and Photoshopped it into the graphic. It gave me great joy. Then I thought it’d be pretty fun to have another comic. The problem … Read more
You can judge for yourself, but every time I see a picture in sepia, it makes me think of coffee. Maybe it’s just that I just haven’t had any coffee this morning, but still — seeing myself like this makes me want a cuppa joe.
