I'm taking a leap here

I’m taking a leap here.

I picked up the keys to my new office today. I got my certification as a hypnotist several years ago. I’ve never marketed my expertise before. I’ve just used that knowledge in my personal, social and work environments.

(You didn’t notice: deeper, deeper.)

I’ve long said that my propensity to give advice is exceeded only by the recipient’s disregard of the same. Thus, no guarantees are involved.

At the big box discount store, a manager told me she was at a funeral where I was
Worshipful Master of the Lodge of Sorrow.
Turned out she liked it.
I liked it as well.

It’s odd to say that I enjoy a funeral.
It gives folks a chance to see what we carry for a brother.


I’m up to the job.
Despite my faults folks continue to work with me.
I continue to work with them.
