About 20 minutes of me attempting to talk about the NEA, but just getting mad at #45.

Phone separation anxiety is a real problem in America...

If you or someone you know has problems separating themselves from thier phones, chances are you are they are suffering from lackofiphoneitis, a mental issue based on current needs to know what is happening on social media, or who won the last football game.

So midlife crisis issues can stem from a lot of things, but it seems to come from regrets, not tackling the future and being prepared to do so. I do my best to stay on target, but do end up talking about girl fights, inspirational quotes, and taking a fist to the jimmy.

FUN!

Thanks again for feedback, listening, sharing, and all of that. It means the world to me!
