Heading back to Chicago the first week of November. Excited. More details to come.

So I've been told by Lillie-Bean.

I assume that they are not living up to your expectations... Ever? I know Lillie-Bean lives in a constant state of disappointment.

Lillie-Bean is hanging with her crew, and taking a swim before winter makes it too cold. She came home and took a few power naps! #CorgiCrew #DogsOfBsky

Looks like I'm heading into DC on Wednesday to film a thing.

No. No you can't see her. She's hiding. #corgicrew

Was curious, and so I went on a quest to find and try Nattō. Found & tried.

Not bad. The texture is a challenge, but with rice... I get it.

A small foam container of Nattō, a slimy fermented soy bean.

Road trip!

Was on U St in DC today. Perfect weather.

Selfie of me. Behind me on the wall is a bansky inspired graphic of dude throwing a sandwich.

With the M-Enabling Conference starting tomorrow I've got some great friends in town. Excited to be a tour guide today.

I create anew. You’re left with nothing, because my cover was the only thing that ever gave you substance.

And before you know it, you’re forgotten.

You're usin' a 286? Don't make me laugh!

At Christmas 1986 my parents got me a Commodore 64, a Floppy drive the size of a shoe box, and a modem like this. Connecting to Bulletin Boards and downloading BASIC code to learn.

Lillie-Bean is trying to convince me that she is the leader of the gang at the Farm. I'm skeptical, but then she showed me the photos and gave me some side-eye. #corgicrew #Dogsofbsky

Lillie-Bean absolutely loves her ball. She loves to roll on it. She even takes the time to show it to the sun itself. #corgicrew

I'm so excited, one of my #orchid has decided that it's time to remind me what color its flowers are.

Stay tuned, I'll share when the time is right.

October is shaping up to be very productive. Looking forward to connecting with some old friends.

You gambled on betrayal. Lost it all. Now it’s just welfare, and soon the same roach-infested 5th floor dump I rescued you from... if you're lucky.

Dude, if I buy your house, because you can't pay the note, don’t be mad.

My hard work was the reason your dream of home ownership was even possible.

She converted our formal dinning room, so big window, cutting table where a dining table should be, and 8 machines around the sides.

Every summer I would make a bunch of shorts using gaudy printed cotton. I was a kid, zero fashion sense, zero care.

I understand, my step-mom ran a school out of our home and so this was a skill I acquired very young and it has always been a bit of a super power.

Been very busy with day job, but wanted to share.

Lillie-Beans farm day yesterday. Playing some ball, swimming with her buds, getting to know the new guy, and lastly chilling after a bath in her hammock waiting for her daddies to pick her up. What a life! #CorgiCrew #DogsofBsky

Lillie, a tri-colored red headed corgi relaxing in a hammock clearly tired.

Lillie-Bean had two cat friends, Mochi and Tomio, but they moved on and she just has her dad's now.
