This is me, trying to buy something from the supermarket, while every sales person on earth tries to upsell me on all the things….
Seriously…I’m not very nice when I’ve been stuck in traffic and just want to buy one thing at the store.

I got to ride this recently and it has become my new favorite roller coaster. Even watching it on Youtube doesn’t describe how insane this ride is, plus it’s pretty long!!!

I have been struggling with a way to discuss the recent events regarding my health, and I haven’t come up with an easy way to talk about it directly.
A couple years ago I had a health scare in which I thought I had cancer. Thankfully I did not, but thought to myself “If I did have cancer, I would have been really disappointed with my bucket list.” I made a lot of changes, including traveling more and living in a more positive way.
Fast forward to the past couple months. It was recently discovered that I had brain cancer, but it isn’t as serious as it sounds. Everything is going to be fine since things were discovered early. I am going to have some very not-fun treatments, but it will be fine.
When my doctor gave me the news, I thought “I have done a lot of shit in the past year and a half, no big deal now.” So with the news , my only reaction was asking “What’s next,” like President Bartlet does in The West Wing. What a difference a short amount of time makes.
More life changes will come, but I am feel very happy and lucky to have the life I have. I recently had a role change where I help guide a team of talented folks in Automattic, and with that new responsibility I have the amazing opportunity to do what I do well, and help my team kick a lot of ass. Life is not going to slow down for me, anytime soon.
