A “Pyle” of Stories

So I’ve added some new photos of Chip. She’s currently in the mid 40s on weight and getting taller by the day.  I’m guessing she’ll be 2 – 4 inches taller and another 20 lbs heavier once its all said and done. But who cares … she will be what she is and it’ll be great.  I’m thinking real hard about having a litter with her sometime next year … she’s only 5 1/2 months right now, because I’d love another one.  If you or anyone you know might be interested, I’d love to share!

I’m contemplating some format changes. I just LOVE this blog … http://chroniclesofkimi.blogspot.com/ .. and since right now, I’m currently single and my life is not exactly “clean” enough to blog about , I might convert this to life from Chip’s point of view.  Just a thought … I’m still mulling this over.  Of course my life will be in there too, but it will be from my goofy Airedale’s point of view.

Enjoy the photos! They are at the back of the gallery up under the Chip button at the top.

The door is open and I’m sitting at my desk in the living room. Living room you say … yes, I have no furniture in the living room, and since the desk is too big to fit in the guest doorway, I’ve put it in the living until I can take it apart and move it again. So here I sit, enjoying the fresh air, some Ray LaMontagne, a glass of Bourbon, and some Chip laying at the base of the chair. I tell you what, doesn’t get too much better.

Strangest thing has been occurring lately. I’ve been so future driven for so long, so much a planner that I think I’ve stifled myself from enjoying the things that are right in front of me and going on right now. I used to be this way. A long time ago … And over the past 3 or 4 weeks, I’ve been transitioning back towards that person. I’ve always been relaxed, no doubt, but now its a little more than that. Its relaxed and care free. Who cares about what happens at 35, 40, 50 … who really cares about what happens tomorrow. The fun is going on right now, and if your not careful, you might just miss it. Well not me. Not anymore.

I just scored some Death Cab for Cutie tickets for 2 weeks from yesterday. I cannot tell you how stoked I am for that. They are at the Ryman too, which makes it all that much more exciting. And its also on a Monday night. I love weeknight concerts for some reason. I just enjoy getting downtown on a weeknight. It is going to be a blast. Nothing like “I will Possess Your Heart” echoing in those acoustics. On the opposite side of that, I’ve got Metallica tickets for September. JRoy, you know your out there, and I’ll do what I can to help make that happen. I’ve got two my friend, and the other one has your name on it!!! I love me some live music.

How many of you guys have checked out The Work Institute’s new website? There have a been a few little glitches along the way. But all with older code and systems that were moved. Nothing with the new application. Can’t say how happy I am on that one. The other stuff, I knew it would be there, and I’ll just work through it. If you haven’t had a chance yet, cruise over there, and signup. There are some good blogs and forums going on, and it would be nice to have some of my readers participate.

So in the spirit of this post, and to match the title, I’ll leave you with the following image …

Hey there everyone.  I know its been some time.  I hate when I see bloggers start of with, I’m so sorry I haven’t posted, I’ll do better in the future.  Well, I’m not really sorry I have not been blogging … I needed a break.  I started this a few years back as something fun to do, and it just wasn’t fun for quite some time.  And so I just stopped doing it.  But with all seasons in your life, they do have an end.  And that season is done.  So lets get this started!

I welcomed a new addition this weekend.  Her name is Chip.  She’s a 4 month old Airedale Terrier.  She is without a doubt the sweetest dog I’ve EVER had.  And I have had some sweet ones over the years.  But she is just amazing.  Take a look over in my gallery at her.  Photo Gallery

Work has been good.  We had a huge rollout of our new website and community platform this past Friday.  Phew, am I glad that is over.  I’ve got a real supportive crew, but none are technologists, so they are there if I need to vent, or push some buttons, or do some testing, or order pizza, and they do a great job at all of this, but at the end of the day, its on my shoulders.  Good thing I’ve been working out Take a look when you get some time.  The Work Institute

Time to get ready and get Chip settled into her spot for the day.  Have a great one and I’ll see you soon …
