Travel Perks Industry Going Bonkers

I’m seeing American airlines and credit card companies react to COVID by making it ever-more lucrative to be their customer/loyal fan. In my opinion, the best deals right now are with Chase — two cards, specifically: For earning cashback OR travel points: Chase just made their Freedom Unlimited even more worthwhile. You still [ ] The post Travel Perks Industry Going Bonkers appeared first on Half…

Is Your Thalamus (Also) On Fire?

I’m one of the hundreds of thousands of Americans being impacted by the wildfires raging across thousands of miles in the U.S. I’m currently coming to you from my friend’s garage in Boise, Idaho, where I’ve set up a tent bedroom and toolbench office (because COVID) after fleeing hazardous air quality and fires moving ever-closer [ ] The post Is Your Thalamus (Also) On Fire? appeared first on Half…

Earth Lessons

It feels strange to offer such a niche post when I ve gone so long without saying anything (publicly) at all. And yet. I was so captivated by some lessons at a talk I went to recently, it seems a real shame not to find a way to share them. With an eye toward [ ] The post Earth Lessons appeared first on Half The Clothes .

What Happened to 2018

If you’re not into gleaning insight from others’ personal experiences, this set of words probably isn’t for you. 🙂 I haven’t written anything containing chronological information about my life since I temporarily quit the internet in May. Seven months. Whoa. A month before that, I published a disjointed collection of words containing [ ] The post What Happened to 2018 appeared first on Half The…

Why I’m Quitting the Internet… Again

I do a lot of soapboxing about how critical it is to maximize control over your time and attention. I talked about it all the time on my podcast. I write articles about it. I speak to groups of people about it. My friends can attest to my inability to shut up about it. But [ ] The post Why I m Quitting the Internet Again appeared first on Half The Clothes .

Blessing in the Chaos

It s National Poetry month. If this is the only section of Half the Clothes you visit, you probably think I dropped off the face of the earth. Au contraire. I ve just been spending huge swaths of my time working on the Ticket 2 Blog Podcast. And doing my work exchange hours.

2018 – The Year I Quit

I understand it might seem weird to begin a New Year focused on quitting, but hang with me. Perhaps you ll realize you should also quit in 2018. I have two resolutions this year, but I’ll get to them later. More important underlying them are these three intentions: Quit trying to do so [ ] The post 2018 – The Year I Quit appeared first on Half The Clothes .

Photo of the Day – Week 52 – I’M DONE!!!!

Oh to be finished! Guess how many days I failed this year at my 3rd resolution. Less than I thought! My (nerd alert!) goal tracker says 96% complete. 4% of 365 days in a year is 15 days. I m not interested in the tedium of reviewing how many of those are [ ] The post Photo of the Day Week 52 I M DONE!!!! appeared first on Half The Clothes .

2017: Some Things I Never Told You

I ve spent more of these December days thinking about 2018 and looking forward than thinking about and looking back on 2017. However, a reflection seems appropriate before excitedly charging into a fresh batch of days. Lots happened in 2017, and the best bits were probably the unexpected ones. I traveled. Lots.

Unexpected Lesson from a Border Canyon

My former college roommate is about the most motivated, driven, action-taking person I know. He sets a goal, puts his mind to it, and gets it done with an indestructible good attitude. He became a birder” last year. He moved to Phoenix, Arizona last month. He came to visit me 1Subscribers [ ] The post Unexpected Lesson from a Border Canyon appeared first on Half The Clothes .
