So y'all don't love Brutus on Brewpubs — they are consistently my least-read posts.

Instead, we have set up an Instagram for him and you can read them here.

WOOF

No, not that kind of woof, unless you have a lead on a pomeranian that needs a home... I have declared this week my WOOF — Week Of Outstanding Filing. My friend Charles proves how well he knows my by commenting: But this is exactly why it is needed. On Saturday, most of my home office looked like this: Or, if stacked, this: After a few filing sessions, it now looks like this — definitely some room for improvement, but better. And after some similar time at a client's today, my in-box there, which had been too full to add anything more to, looks like this: In attending to this filing, which is definitely my Achilles heel, I am making some progress in the rest of my life. And that feels good.

Attend more performances, and art. Attend parties and events. Attend to friendships and relationships. Attend to the...
