I like lists and here is a list. Not as exciting as ski days, but arguably more hygge. Tell Me How to Be- Neil Patel- Yeah! The book that got me into reading again. Gay male protagonist, which for some reason or another was a first for me. I enjoyed looking for the familiar in …
I went to Norway to ski tour in 2019 and came back with a little stowaway, unbeknownst to me. My very favorite TV show, Northern Exposure, once had an episode insinuating that people of Asian heritage travel to northern latitudes to procreate under the Aurora in hopes of an auspicious coupling.

I have embarked on a journey which I am very, very excited about: Metalworking. The origin of my interest in this pursuit goes way back to the early days of my divorce. When I would go to Bozeman to visit, I would either have the very best time or the very worst time, resulting in …

The birth of my daughter, Inge, turned my life upside down and I’m only just now able to appreciate what a cosmic blessing that little …
Written on 3/11/2019. Published on 5/2/2020. Just stumbled upon this post on an overnight shift at my ER in Bishop. Little did I know it, but I was about a week and a half pregnant at the time of this writing and my world was about to get rocked… “Maybe it’s time to let the …
