It was one of them weeks.
How often I wished for a tangible enemy, something that I could put a face to - a face that I could put a dart to
Instead I found myself ducking shadows and wind…
Facing thoughts dark and brooding like bullies, that battered me and spread doubt like bruises.

You know what helps doubt?

How many said faith? You’re wrong. Well, not really, but in my case - yes, you’re wrong. Facts combat doubt rather well - and in the absence of doubt, faith emerges. So after uncurling my body from the fetal position, I started to do a little research, and the data supported that I might know something about some things, and that I’m not incapable of learning the things I don’t know.

I’m sure that there are flaws in my thoughts, based on my perspective, but like the prisoners in the cave, I hope that enlightenment will find me. Right now I’m happy to be free from the shadows on the wall - or more directly, free from those in my mind.

Enough of the esoteric. According to the poll below, “God Will Lift Up Your Head” by Jars of Clay made a late run to finish as the fan favorite (interesting given the post above don’t you think?). After my vote though, the John Butler Trio moved right up alongside them. I obviously have an affinity for all of the songs on some level - but I always find myself repeating the John Butler Trio.

Business is…well, read the beginning of this post. Being self-employed can be a real kick in the pants sometimes, and being a real estate agent breeds its own kind of fun We (meaning me and my two business partners) just finished analyzing our stats from last year, and our listings averaged 29 days on market (compared to the market average of 57.5 days) and our listings also sold for 99.86% of list price (compared to the market average of 99.09%). You can read the analysis HERE. Not my best writing, but then again, I’m not a technical writer - and writing about numbers and stats is kind of like writing about my kryptonite.

I just finished migrating this site onto new servers, which has lead to a lot of problems - like not receiving any email over the weekend. If you wrote me or Kami or my sister or her husband, just know that we didn’t get it. The archives of this blog is also in complete disarray, and my ability to fix it seems very finite at this point.
