habits in bulk

When you start buying in bulk, your habit becomes a lifestyle.

reflections

Reflecting on 2025, and reflecting on dissertation research. I feel like my research topic has shifted several times this year, and that shift seems like a perfect metaphor for this year. Shifting direction. Shifting gears. Shifting objectives.

time

Some years, the days between Christmas and New Year feel like living in an alternate universe. 

morning walk

A total of 3.4 miles in the sun. And, I started thinking that I should commit to posting a picture here every time I go for a walk in the new year. Like the 1/365 “post a day challenge” back when blogging was cool, but just for walks. Then, I started thinking about file hierarchy and how this would look. I’m thinking of posting a numbering system that consists of a number in the title, with a season and month in the tags.
