I’m not even the Stephen Sondheim of juggling.

My 5-year-old just asked “Daddy, what were pillows like in the 80s?” And I realized that makes just as much sense to her as asking what TVs and phones were like back then.

@Figure53 I used Qlab when I was asked to DJ a friend’s wedding. It was great for things like the procession, first dance, any moment I could plan ahead of time. I had separate dj software for the actual dancing part of the reception.

I'm tired but satisfied. I worked on a big project yesterday and gave it everything I had. I look forward to sharing it with you all when it's done. I'm back at it today and tomorrow. Fighting exhaustion and pacing myself.

The kids have decided we are going to make our own unique take on a gingerbread house. They have dubbed it the Darwingerbread house and I have high hopes and low expectations for this project.

I’m going to brag about my kid for a minute. Lyla is really starting to get the hang of flying a drone. She’s 7 and she has skills I don’t have and admire.

Hazel: “Daddy, can you give me some of your money?”
Me: “No sweetheart.”
Hazel: “Can you get some money from someone else and give it to me?”

Future in debt collection for that one.

Well...I beat my daily goal of getting 30 minutes of exercise. Long day of juggling and unicycling. Good night. https://t.co/a8CLBz27uj

And I got the best seat on the plane coming home. Look at that legroom! It’s been a good week. https://t.co/ycayWzeOrP
