Tonight, while having dinner with friends, one of whom I’ve known since high school, the topic of people who demand the spotlight came up. These are the folks who steal other people’s moments or make up tall tales to be the best-most. And then I told a story about being bitten by a vulture while in South Africa… so.

I’m behind on my extra jobs, as of today. I’d like to think I’m less behind than I was this time last year, however, I can’t be certain. Isn’t it weird how the first month of the new year is almost over?
