I believe that everyone needs a break every now and again, and I know that for me, Tuesday is almost always one of those days. Mondays are slow moving at the start but usually pick up, and then Tuesdays, if I am lucky, I feel like I’m starting to accomplish something.

Wednesdays are the worst, and everybody knows that, but Tuesday doesn’t get enough cred. It often sucks, too. So I am going to start giving you an early break in the action each week with a new feature, the “Tuesday Time Out.” Some of you will feel it’s too early to take a break, and if so, that is the beauty of this thing. You can catch it Wednesday sometime. It will still be here.

The art for this feature is another great spot illustration by DJ Coffman, my friend from Third Tribe. He’s a super-swell guy and very funny. And from what I can tell, a pretty reputable comic artist. So I was psyched to connect with him on 3T and even more psyched to have his art on my site. Check him out at DJCoffman.Com.

So the first lesson I learned is that I need to get an earlier start and stick with a concept once I have it. But today, I got a little sidetracked. One of the hazards of working at home. I was supposedly catching up on some client notes and projects, and cleaning my office (a perpetual task, it seems, but I will pretend that is the only reason you see all the clutter. Roll with me here, please.)
Anyway, the first edition is therefore late, so many of you will not see if until Wednesday. But you will understand a little about how I got off track, and what my priorities are. Sorry in advance for the bad camera work.
