Twelve Years At Blood Assurance – April 14, 2026

Twelve years ago today I began my work at Blood Assurance as a Telerecruiter. As I celebrate this work anniversary I think about the experiences and adventures I have had there. It hasn’t been easy, but my work there makes a difference.

My first desk on my first day at Blood Assurance.

Thanks to everyone along the way who have made this possible. Here’s to many more years down the road.

Highly Niche Person

One of your favorite nerds is watching Canadian election returns this evening. I am a highly niche person.

Daily Prompt – Favorite Restaurant

Daily writing prompt
What is your favorite restaurant?

This question is tough because I cannot pin one restaurant down. I am a big mom-and-pop restaurant type of guy. Diners are my favorite places to eat because most of them serve breakfast all day long. However, I do like ethnic places like Chinese, Thai, Indian and Japanese. Lately I have been finding out more about Korean. I like food that is seasoned but not spicy so that is a consideration. There are several places I enjoy around my city that serve good food at good prices.

This Blog and The Stuff I Post

The world is in such turmoil right now. Political upheaval, wars and rumors of wars, money woes and so much more. I believe in being up on things going on and sharing it with you. My heart and soul feels everything and I want to share what is going on in my head. I know this is my blog and I have the right to post whatever I want.

However, I need to figure out some balance between the bad and the good. The Artemis II voyage to the moon was something awesome and positive. However, the unnecessary war with Iran is a longer-term reality. Life is like that these days. Everything is going on all at once so it seems.

I don’t want you my blogging audience to think I am always negative, no one wants that. So I might start posting weird stuff that makes my weird heart happy. Some of it won’t make sense, but hopefully it will let you know that this blog is still about where I chronicle and curate the sacred, serious, and silly things in my life.

I hope that makes sense. What do you think? Feedback welcome.

Hello Friends, It’s Been A While

Friends, it’s been a few days since my last post. In that time I have celebrated my 27th wedding anniversary among just living the life. So, one could say no news can be good news.

I hope you all are doing well. Thanks for tuning in.

A Commentary on The Current Events of April 7th

When you threaten a country by violence or economic coercion to get what you want that is not leadership that is a moral failing based upon greed and sometimes hatred. I can say that right now that Donald Trump is a failure in every measurable way and is a danger to this nation and others. Conservatism needs a reset from the current course it has been on for much of the last ten years. Does it have the courage to remove the cancer that is Trump/MAGA? Our military should know that attacking a country based on sketchy intelligence is wrong. Voting has consequences and right now we are all feeling it. Something needs to change sooner rather than later. I don’t think those who can make it happen will be able to do so. This Iran situation is an example of incompetence all across the board.
