Writing to Movie Scores.

This is one of those posts that I've been wanting to write for a long time. This is about my lifelong connection to music, and how it personally relates to my writing. I love music. Holy lord I love music. I love ALLLL kinds of music. From the mildest New Age Zen to the hardest … Continue reading Writing to Movie Scores.

There Jim was. . Right in the middle of everyone with a huge smile on his face... like he always had. . Every morning when he’d drive up for carpool with Amelia, while the rest of us were barely waking up and scowling into our coffee, he had that huge smile. . Every time he’d see me anywhere, he had so much energy about something I was doing. He never talked about himself. He asked about you. So unselfish and authentic. And always with that huge smile. . Every time you’d see him at a gathering, it didn’t matter what stresses were going on in your own life, he was always chock full of energy asking when we were gonna go play paintball again, trying to set up a camping trip, or wanting to get the guys and go on some other crazy adventure. And yes, his huge smile was always there. And like a friend’s yawn, it was contagious. You couldn’t help but smile back. . Dammit. The world lost one of the really good guys. His gregarious Texan personality, his larger than life constant happiness, and that damn smile that never left his face. . We were proud to be one of Amelia’s second homes for all these years. More sleepovers than I can even count. You will be sorely missed, brother. Life isn’t fair. In fact, it pisses me off. . Yet, I know that wherever you are, you still have that huge smile plastered on your face. . And I can’t help but smile back.

Yep. This happened today. Taking my oldest girl on a college tour at my alma mater was surreal. But man oh man, it was such a reminder of how incredible this campus really is. Even though their football team has destroyed my soul the last few games, I’m still proud to be a Ute. #universityofutah #utahutes #footballteampleasestopdestroyingmysoul

Let us cleanse the last decade with FIRE!!! Absorb all that was good and bathe in its heat... Then let the flames destroy all our bad decisions, wrong directions, and flat out mistakes. . May this new decade be filled with all that is important to you, whatever it may be. For me it is family, friends, and acceptance, both of myself and others. . Here’s to a spectacular 2020, everyone. This decade let’s all be a little nicer, smile a little more, and make sure to realize we’re all only renting space on this planet. Let’s leave it a little better for those renting it after us.

Operation Dixon Winter continues... A once-every-5-years perfect ski day. Crystal blue skies. Uncrowded mountain. And fresh powder so light and dry it felt like gliding on loose cotton. HEAVEN. Only mishap? I guess I was a little too aggressive with my powder pleasure because I literally shattered my boot in half!!!

Today... was a good day.

Every once in a while, you get someone the perfect gift... And you’re able to capture it on camera. Thank you SO much @hommesurlaluneart. The regal portrait of #FloydDixonthedog turned out perfectly. Merry Christmas everyone.
