Wii MUST get one of these things…

So I hear people talking about the Nintendo Wii all the time… They’re Twittering about it… We’re even doing a series by that title at West Ridge here in a couple of weeks. But I’ve never even seen one outside of a store, let alone played one.
I’m not one for video games, usually… Simply because [...]

Twitter: The New Tupperware?

I’m starting to think I’m going to have to coerce the people who work with me and for me, and some of my friends to come to a big, fancy dinner. At that dinner, I will do my best to convince them that Twitter is cool and that they just MUST get on the bandwagon.
Don’t [...]

American Idol Results Roundup…

Here’s my bulleted list of thoughts after tonight’s Idol results show…

Does David Archuleta stand in front of the mirror practicing how to look surprised when he’s told he’s ’safe’ for the week? Come on. I don’t think he’s going to win… But he’s got 3 weeks left.
Natasha Bedingfield is a great singer and songwriter.

American Idol…I’m calling it.

Winner: David Cook
Runner-up: David Archuleta
3rd: Brook
4th: Jason
5th (out this week): Syesha (not because she’s bad, but because she doesn’t reveal too much of her personality. She’ll be just fine starring in a Broadway show with a year.)
I’m not super confident about my picks for 3rd through 5th. But the top two [...]

Jumping Ship

It has been an insane few months in my world… There’s been a lot of growth and good change at West Ridge since last summer. But with growth and change comes the inevitable invitation to more constant activity. For me as a leader, it has been mostly wins, but some critical losses.
So as I pack [...]

recovering rain hater

I love being outside. Sitting inside for too long gives me the creeps. I get irritable. I bought the house we’re in mostly because it had 2 patios AND a deck. Being cooped up in the Winter is torture for me.
But several months ago, something began to change in me. I don’t love the outdoors [...]
