A field guide to growing up without growing apart
Speaking of work, because that is all I have to talk about apparently, I asked for equity today. When I started working here in February of 2015 there were no employees, just a CEO with an idea and some sales and two of his […]
A month or two ago we hired a new person at the company I work for and since we are small and haven’t hired anyone new in a while, it has been a bit of an adjustment. Because we’re so tight knit, we’re pretty flexible […]
This week I’ve been reading Amanda Palmer’s book, The Art of Asking, and everyone needs to read it. I mostly want this because she means so much to me and I’d love everyone else to connect with her too, but also because her simple message […]
Secrets aren’t my favorite. By nature I’m definitely inclined to provide more information rather than less. I want to make sure everyone who would appreciate an invite has one, everyone who is affected to be notified, everyone who has an opinion to have a chance […]

Have you guys been watching The Bachelor this season? Ben isn’t the most interesting of men, but he’s tall, kind, and young, which make for a winning combination if you ask me. In college we used to gather together with junk food and craft projects […]
The condition of the month this month features another millennial figure, the legendary singer-songwriter Taylor Swift. Born in 1989, Taylor has been growing up alongside us. Like the authors of the Twenty-Something Condition she has had to weather the transition from early twenties to mid-twenties, and all […]
Saying yes isn’t always easy. But I think it is worth it. We had much needed snow storm on Monday, bringing about two feet of snow to northern Utah. In years past we would have had feet of snow by this time of year, but […]
I’ve never wanted to live alone. To me living alone has always seemed like a bad idea. I don’t want to be lonely or lazy, have high expenses or tons of housework. I don’t want to have to call people to hangout with all the […]
