A Comfortable State of Limbo

It’s been a little over two months since I left my cube job. And I still feel fantastic. Now that I’ve had some time to relax and do a little soul searching… I’m still lost. Not sure what to do with my life right now. I’m not in any dire need for a steady job [...]

How I finally quit my job.

Yep, you heard me right. I made the jump. I conquered my fear. I quit my job of nearly 7 years. But how did I do it?

We’re Back!

Nixon and I are back from our blog sabbatical.  We did not intend to take one, but sometimes that is just how things go. We are living very happily in our new property… one side of a duplex in the downtown area.  Nixon has a new bike to match mine and we have been loving [...]

It’s been a little while since we last posted anything… but it’s not because we’ve forgotten about The Daily Cubicle… it’s because we’ve been busy working on all our dreams and haven’t had a moment to spare!  A quick status update: Adrienne finalized the purchase of a duplex which we will be moving into in [...]

Purchasing yet another property…?

Nixon and I want to be Real Estate Tycoons.  I’m not sure why I wrote that in Caps but it seemed important enough.  We each own two properties.  Nixon rents both of his and at least breaks even, but with the tax breaks probably ends up making some money.  I also own two properties… one [...]

Getting Fit Week #7

There is an air of depression in the house, which seems to be radiating only from me, with the results from this weeks’ weigh-in as Adrienne earns a well deserved victory.  I guess it must be true about what they say about the sun with relation to a dogs’ ass every now and again.  I’m [...]

What a Night!

Nixon and I moved into one of my properties not too long ago with the intent to fix it up and then sell it.  I bought the place in 2006, lived in it for a year, and have rented it for the last two years.  I LOVE this house.  But it just doesn’t make any [...]

Getting Fit Week #6

The results from this weeks’ weigh-in are below, and it would seem that I have once again taken Adrienne all the way down to her favorite place….
