Below you will find my weblog, or just blog. The name may not strike you right away, but you'll get it after I ask you one question: How many letters are there in the alphabet?

I use these twenty−six letters to share moments I experience, thoughts I come upon or ideas I have that I don't feel like keeping to myself. Writing them gives me the ability to share with you.

Maybe you'll laugh, maybe you'll swallow hard, maybe you will learn something about me that you didn't previous know, or maybe you'll relate the words below to something in your own experiences. You may even know the subjects I allude to between the paragraph tags.

So much that I will often write without proofing. If I offend you, it is nothing personal, simply my opinion. I'll complain about things that bother me, things I find offensive and just random thoughts I hold onto long enought to transfer to my blog.

The only thing you need know is that I love to write.

I Love These Eight Es

Thursday, August 20th, 2009

1. Eggs
Breakfast [food] for any meal is thoroughly enjoyable; however, one of my favorite snack foods is a hard-boiled egg with salt and/or ranch dressing.

2. Exiting
Either I’ve done my job for the day, or I’m on an important errand, or even leaving on a jetplane. Whatever the case may be, I love the feeling I get when I leave.

It’s an unexplainable (which is what I’m trying to do) combination of completion and (for lack of a more appropriate word) happiness.

A new memory and the end of something I survived.

3. Escargot
A small, slow-moving and delicious food: snails. Another favorite that falls in the same category of slow (but, by no means small) foods: beef.

4. Extroverts
In the last week, I’ve made connections with two new family members – my dad’s cousin and his niece. Not even sure how the relations pan out at that level, but they’re in the family tree somewhere.

5. Evenings
Dinner time houses the most relaxing meal of the day. I don’t have to go to work after and there’s usually more food and more time to eat.

6. Embers
The slowly-fading light on the tip of a candle wick as the flame escapes existence. It’s calming and inviting to the night.

7. Expensing
If an employer reads number seven, I hope they choose to continue on through the nine-letter deduction following it.

There’s a sense of accomplishment that goes hand-in-hand with the responsibility of being able to expense expenses. You are getting reimbursed for the revenue (and hopefully profit) your hard work generates.

8. Eight
This one’s for me…
