A whole world of consequences fits in only 10 minutes-time
If only I had gotten up 10 minutes earlier, I wouldn’t have been stuck in traffic, found parking faster, and not missed the only available flight until tomorrow to get home. I missed my family dinner, and big event. I was saying goodbye before leaving the party, and I stayed for 10 more minutes talking […]

Driving, and more driving
No matter what anyone says, driving is tiring. It doesn’t have to be 6 straight hours, it could be 6 consecutive trips of 15 minutes each. You’ll get exhausting. That being said, I love driving, but following traffic laws, watching out for idiots on the road, paying attention to the GPS, choosing the most efficient […]

Long-hard Friday, but with a Saturday Reward in the Horizon
Today has possibly been one of the days that I have worked the most recently. More than the work itself, it was the other errands added, and the VARIOUS trips I had to make multiple times. Suddenly, you realized you’ve been out of the house all day, you’re in the middle of your exercise routine, […]

Strange, nice and productive Saturday
Almost any sleep last night thanks to inconsiderate neighbors. Had a nice big breakfast and hit the road. 250 miles driven, got shit done, and almost 8 hours after my first meal, I had a huge mexican banquet for dinner. Can’t complain. Now a nightcap and some more than deserved shuteye. Tomorrow is race Sunday!

Post under construction: delayed for safety reasons
Brb, today’s drive is 800 miles, and I’m currently in the last leg. Long story, short: I went to the Canadian GP today in Montreal, Quebec. I’m pretty far up north. Talk to you later.

If anything can go wrong, it will (and it did, BIG TIME)
Look, my day today was total, utter shit. Starting from only being able to sleep about 4 hours, to an extensive amount of unexpected traffic, driving over 7 hours, a flash storm and to top it all off: being victim of fraud (through legit proven channels, mind you). Let’s round it up to a 13-hour […]

En route: update
SHORT POST- Sorry to do this, but had absolutely ZERO down-time today between work, clients, car appointment, packing my bags, and of course, doing all this while surviving 100F degree day. So, I’m currently in the middle of an 800-mile long road trip (one way). Literally stopped on a random exit to stretch my legs […]

About halfway there
3 and a half hours of driving, done! Easy peasy, even though it started after a 12-hour work day, which gets even harder when it’s 85F and you’re doing tons of stuff outside. The sun really drains you. Must have drank like 4 bottles of electrolyte water, my body just kept chugging it. Dehydration is […]

Long day ahead, and even longer weekend
I’ve been staring at this blank page for about 15 minutes now, including the 20 tabs I’ve opened and closed multiple times to ‘find inspiration’. None, nothing, zilch. I’m completely blank today. Tiredness is a factor, being out in the sun at 84F is another, not getting a full night sleep since past Friday is […]
