Tim Thoughts

Much like the pollen in the sweet spring air that makes my eyes water, this blog is back. No, seriously.
I’m going to back up these words with actions to make you believe. But of course those actions will actually be words, but that’s the point.

I’m back. Well, in reality, I was never gone. I just wasn’t writing. If this was a newspaper, I would have had a number of complaints about why the paper hadn’t been delivered in weeks. So as a publisher, I’ve let my readers down in the Summer of ‘09. I’d like to use this post to fill you in on what I’ve been up to and any other thoughts that are on my mind.

2009 has been a crazy year for me. I’ve had some of the best days …

The way I see it, I need to write more frequently, with more focus, and on topics that are more relevant to those who read the blog. Well, I …

You may have noticed that I haven’t been blogging much lately. Actually, if you’ve noticed, that’s good news. That means someobody is paying attention. So what have I been up to?
For starters, work has been pretty hectic. We’re operating with less people on our team than in the past, so roles and responsibilities change slightly. But I’m feeling a little more settled in and hopefully I can get back to sharing some thoughts on this blog.
Other excuses include golfing, watching the NBA playoffs, planning a wedding (although Janette would tell …

If you’re ever starved for my writing and the one or two posts a week here just aren’t enough for you, this is a reminder that I also write on the b&a blog. When I started my blog, it was to serve as an outlet for thinking that didn’t always seem relevant or appropriate for the b&a blog. I try to split my writing pretty equally between the two locations.
Here are some recent posts:
