time’s motion
irresistible
spring
Two days until my job ends and I begin the next chapter of my life. Mixes sadness and excitement into a strange cocktail.

cherry blossoms
I saw these blooms at Edmonds Community College today. I am moving forward with my career transition plan. My current position ends Friday, and I’ve grown weary of being let go all the time. So I’m going to study Web Design and Development. This excites me deeply.
Forward, always moving forward.
Life Update: February 26, 2020
Update in the life of Carl: this Friday will be my last day at my current job. Though tinged with sadness (great people to be missed, though a commute to Bellevue I rejoice in leaving behind), I move forward. After exploring some re-training options, I plan to study Web and Application Development at Edmond Community College. Though still ironing out details, this path excites me. With a gap in my time starting next week, I plan to spend time catching up as many people as I can. Friendship: life’s best present.
Wednesday, Early Morning
outside my window
sounds of cat lust, or a fight?
awake before dawn
A haiku from this evening’s walk
moving through darkness
quiet, my old companion
graceful solitude

swirls around
memories
One day is done, four more to go as I transition out one career stop into another. Friday’s an ending and a beginning. I’m sad about the ending, but excited about the beginning. I’m opening a new chapter in my life. Blank pages to fill.
Cherry Blossoms
ah, cherry blossoms!
hints that spring is almost here
bold chattering birds
Recommended Video: “Hey Tim”
So, this is a bit different post for me.
A friend of mine shared this video with me today. Just. Wow! First the artistry of the film shines brilliantly. The story, though, carries it to great heights.
So, clearly, I recommend it. Check it out, then let me know what you think. I hope you love it as much as I.

Ah, Them Sports Things
Seattle, like most major sports markets, has it’s share of maniacal fans. I, however, am not one. To be clear, I adore my city and root for the home team. But, well, my interest in the details of most sports is pretty limited. I tend to get bored and find myself exploring Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, or, if I’m really far gone, down various rabbit holes on YouTube.
I discovered this comic a few years ago, and regularly repost it on my socials to remind folks of my, well, apathetic ignorance of most things sports. My great appreciation to the good folks at VectorBelly for crafting this gem.
