You Say Toe-MAY-toe, I say Toe-MAH-tow

OK... so whether it is a "mid-life crisis" (as I have been told), or a "personal renaissance" (as I prefer)... Either way, it just feels time to make some changes... to quote Joel Goodsen -- sometimes you just gotta say "What the f*ck".

So... I'm making some changes:
  1. After languishing for seven years in a ho-hum job, I decided I wanted more of a challenge. Having been told for YEARS that I would be great in sales... I am going for it. Starting July 7th, I will be selling Changepoint (Enterprise Portfolio and Program Management software) for Compuware.
  2. Quit drinkin', started working out... chronicling all this on my personal blog... but quick hit... I've dropped 15+ pounds in less than a month and still going strong. Assuming all goes well, I will be running the Kansas City Marathon in October.
  3. Shopping for a motorcycle... not sure why --- but it just feels like I should have one.
  4. Spending more time with the kids (or at least, using that as an excuse for buying a PS3 yesterday).

For a couple of years now, I have been telling T. we should introduce a little more risk into our lives... guess it's "Put-up or Shut-up" time.

We'll see...
D.
