Visual Trademark - A Blog By CJ Mills

I know what you’re all thinking - this dude has WAY too much time on his hands. Well, you’re right. There is only so much we can do with Ash in the hospital connected to 20 different wires and machines. I don’t do well in that kind of environment, so I try [...]

Today was great. We drove down to Jacksonville Beach to meet up with a client friend of mine at his water park. The water park was closed today, but the rest of the attractions were up (mini golf, go karts, arcade, kiddie rides, etc.). As we were taking a tour, the owner [...]

It is finally time. Time to wait until the very last minute to pack all my crap. Time to worry about the few short hours I have in the office tomorrow and the many long hours of work I have to cram into them. Time to wonder if my connection in Chicago [...]

I rushed home today so Jadyn and I could play outside. Today I was going to teach Jade the basics of soccer. I'll post some video later. After soccer practice, my beautiful wife made a pasta dinner for us all and we ate it outside on our new patio furniture. A [...]

At one point, I was reminded of The Office episode where Dwight Schrute gives his acceptance speech and I nearly started [...]

I'm in Orlando for the annual B&B awards meetings. This year, after the awards night, we took a police escort to see Cirque Du Soleil's La Nouba (2nd photo shows one of the CDS people….they had some of the people "showing" us to the transport). Pretty cool show - but it makes for [...]

Have you ever had one of those weeks where your heads feels like it is continually growing and that your neck may snap?  Well, that was this week for me.  What a freaking stressful week - but now it is over and my little girl is trying to pull me away from my computer so [...]

The weather has sucked the last few days.  Three inches of melted snow along with 2 days of rain causes some serious issues.  As I drove into work on Wednesday, I ran to the local coffee hut to grab a quick drink and noticed that one of the roads was barricaded off.  I didn’t even notice why as [...]
