Yesterday, October 30, 2018, i watched an Apple live event held in Brooklyn, New York. Watched it on an iPhone.
Tim said, “Thank you! Thank you, thank you, wow. Wow.”
Joy. Pure joyous excitement. i’m excited to buy my (potentially) final Apple product, the new iPad Pro 12.9″.
Final All Hallows Eve?
Don’t know.
Final New Years Eve?
Don’t know.
But if it turns out to be true, will i look back on these two days (60 days apart) and wish i had done something differently, had i known for sure they would be my last?

Home kitchen vs restaurant. Photo: Last night at the brand new Tijuana Flats near home. The portions are bigger than Chipotle and Qdoba.
Our mindset can be blind to the same questionable behaviors we easily identify in others…
This Mid Life Celebration post (about the chicken and pig commitment to breakfast) from two days ago prompted a brief conversation which included the following:
Eric: …I think bacon cooks better in the oven.
me: Probably…1 button and 3 minutes later…
Eric: …oh yes the instant gratification generation
me: Car vs horse, internet vs book, ovens vs fires, farming vs grocery store, Amazon vs main street…be careful in a glass house when you have a stone in your hand. 😁
It was fun to .think .differently

Emptied every night for more than a year and counting.
Still can’t get over this dramatic change in behavior. Thirteen months ago in preparation for a Summer Writer’s retreat on Sanibel Island, i emptied my email inbox, sent folder, and trash folder.
Never intended for it to last.
Surprise!
That was July 1, 2015.
Every night since then (like 419 consecutive nights) i’ve zero’d out those three email folders.
My mornings have never been the same.
Without realizing it, i was starting everyday behind. Doing yesterday’s (or the day or days before) work before i could launch what needs to get done today.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.
