A Suburban Haiku
Sun hidden by clouds
Walking in suburbia
Riotous birdsong

This morning’s haiku
Inconceivable!
Well, I don’t think that word means
What you think it means
This morning’s haiku was inspired by one of my favorite movies.
Do you know which one?
An evening haiku: Boldness of Vision
boldness of vision
living the best possible life
longing for springtime
Thursday Thoughts
Find hope at endings
As they’re a new beginning
Always move forwards
As I move through another period of transition, I focus on the possible. I gain energy from that, driving me forwards. Yes, there are frustrations, challenges, and road blocks, but remember the goal. Always focus on moving forwards.
Grace and peace to you my friends!
Animated PNGs
Yesterday, it took me ages to figure out how to convert a .mov to an animated PNG. One of our services can’t use gifs at all, only pngs. (Here’s more insight into the format.) I remembered that there were such things, but damn, I’d never created one before. It looks like browsers don’t support then that well, so that Adobe doesn’t support their creation natively. I saw in several forums that you can download a plug-in to do that, but no one linked to one. I found EZGif.com, a free website that let me do the conversion. It’s not the most elegant process. It works fine if I open it in a browser, but not if I try to open it in Windows. My, what a pain!
Oh Teriyaki! A Haiku
with its sweetened glaze
over glorious chicken
Seattle’s great dish
I’m extremely fond of teriyaki, and usually have some at least once a week. Everytime I start a new job or move, finding a new teriyaki shop is an immediate goal.

Today’s Black History Month Meditation: Saeed Jones
Mr. Jones launched into my view via Debbie Millman’s Design Matters podcast. His charm and ebullient manner shined brightly.
I find Saeed Jones’ work evocative and insightful. His meter and flow challenge me and my own work. I hope you find his work delightful too.
