Today would have been my dad's 62nd birthday!

I knew I had some old pictures posted on Flickr, but wasn't sure quite what. I'm glad I found this one because it makes me smile.

Insanity!

Dear Friend,

If you read my blog with any regularity you will see recently that I've been a bit derelict. Read down a bit and you'll encounter reason number one, that I'm in the midst of transitioning out of a (difficult) job and into a new one. This week I'm helping to pull together the organization I'm leaving's biggest fundraiser of the year, and it looks like a lot of the work will just fall on me. I'm excited to see how it turns out, but in the spirit of honesty and full disclosure, I'm pretty much just tired!

Saturday night is the big event, and I'm looking forward to it all being over soon. Between now and then, however, think good things about me because it will be stress city. Once that is all over, I'll be wrapping up here and starting up the new thing that comes with a much more substantial commute... and hopefully much more substantial and fun and interesting responsibilities at work!

I hope that this funny little note finds you well, and I'm looking forward to getting back into posting more very soon (especially posting new photos).

In an unrelated note, today was my dad's birthday. Happy birthday dad.

+ John
