Real quick one here…
We’re driving home from dinner this evening and
Lori says, “Is that the fuzz behind me?” I died laughing! The fuzz? Really? Who uses that? It just came out like it is an everyday word. I knew what she meant, but I have never heard anyone use that word in “real life”. I had only heard it in movies.
Turns out that it wasn’t the fuzz behind us…
Cheers!!

Finally there is some snow here in Central Indiana. I know it is still December, but it is long past time to have a decent snow…

A quick shot out the back door with the iPhone.
Enjoy the snow! (check local conditions)

Over the next few days, I will be migrating this blog to its new home. I have a new hosting account and need to get it moved over before my next billing cycle on the current one. Hopefully there is not any down time! I’ll post again when everything is finished…
Cheers!!

I’m going to assume you have played or at least heard of games where the character the player controls has various attributes (health, experience, power, etc) that get used up and replenished throughout the game.
It is a popular way of coding a game because everyone can relate to it. We all get up inthe morning with out allotment of energy points which we use throughout the day. Then we rest for awhile to recharge. The more we rest the more our energy refills.
In real life I think tolerance works a little bit like that. I wake up in the morning with my allotment of tolerance points and as the day progresses annoyances happen and I don’t worry about them because I still have some tolerance points that counter them.
The problem for is that after a full rest period, I only accumulate like 2 points and I’ve usually used them up before I get out of the driveway in the morning. The rest of the day is spent generally being annoyed and frustrated with various people, places and things.
Game designers are aware of this and program little pick me ups that the player can find along the way to refill their allotment of attribute points. If only real life were so easy…
How many tolerance points do you start with in the AM?
Posted from my iPhone at lunch in my car.

Here I sit in peaceful bliss…
I’m sure you know the rest of that one. If not, I’m sure you can find it on Google.
It was an odd intro I know, but it leads to the topic of today’s post. Being so addicted to your phone that you talk, text, chat, surf the web, or write blog entries from the bathroom – while you sit in, well I said look it up if you’ve never heard it.
I know you’re wondering and the answer is yes. I’m in a restroom typing away…
You don’t have to admit that you have done it too, but you would be lying. Everyone has used their phone in one way or another from the restroom.
Being connected is an addiction, and I’m addicted.
Which posts have been or will be written in the bathroom – I’ll never tell, but the number might be larger than you want to believe.
Cheers!
