A Look Forward

I shared in my Substack subscriber-only Water Cooler Chat my theme for this year. A reworking of Bukowski’s words:

Find what you love and let it resurrect you.

Cheers to all the adventures 2026 has in store!

A few days into the new year and I’m already packing my bags for Las Vegas. Get in the mood with me and listen to the Office Playlist - Las Vegas Edition.
