Summer winding down…

Officially, there’s a month or so of summer left. In reality, summer for me ends when my wife goes back to work, or Labor Day weekend, whichever comes first. Today, the wife has students back in the classroom.. So summer is winding down. It’s been a pretty good summer. I’ve played a ton of golf, [...]

So.

Since the first incarnation of this blog, I’ve always been a little streaky. I’ll throw out a blog or more a day for weeks and months, and then stop again for weeks at a time. (That’s just kind of how it is kids, I’m a streaky sort of guy.) This time wasn’t quite like some [...]

Wow. Kick my dog why don’t you.

Should’ve stayed in bed today.
Yup.
Not sure what my first sign should’ve been, but I definitely missed it, whatever it was. Maybe the fact that I woke up at 4 with excruciating pain coming from the shoddy craftmanship of my stinking little weasel of a dentist? Nope. That’s been going on for two weeks or so, [...]

Yawn…

Well, I guess they all can’t be fun-filled weekends filled with parties and good times. Instead, some of them are weekends were you mostly sit on your but-tocks reading, watching baseball, or folding laundry. Guchk.
The wife was away this weekend, so I was on my own. Worked fine Saturday when the weather was nice, and [...]

A giant lift to the spirits..

Every year, just when I think I’m about done with Maine, when I think to myself, GOD how can I stand it here one more second… And trust me, this happens every winter about three thousand times, EVERY year,  a week like this comes along just in time. It’s been stunning, 60-70 degrees, sunny, not [...]

The things we get used to…

It wasn’t that long ago that there was no wireless internet, nevermind wireless in my home. Not that long ago, the thought of carrying a laptop with me everywhere I went, of expecting access to anything at any time, was unreasonable. Not so much anymore. Now, I fully expect internet everywhere I go.
Well, this past [...]

Running short on time, Easter, and hulu…

Yeah, so I’ve been a little slacking about actually posting things recently. Basically, I’ve been trying to balance my tragically failing brackets, fantasy sports, weekend traveling… Sadly throwing up random posts was left behind. I should be back now for a little bit, but next week is looking suspect, as I will be away the [...]

busybusybusybusybusybusybusy

What the hay? Skip out of work for a few days last week, and it’s like they expect me to make up for it when I get back. This sort of BS can not be stood for. Standed for. Allowed.
Add that to the fact that apparently taxes are due soon (who knew?) and we were [...]

layout changes

I made some layout changes because the layout kept getting all screwed up in the other one.
I also added a new page to keep track of any predictions I make over time, so that we can all see just how dumb I really am.

Announcing my presence with (limited) authority

I know. There are a slew of poorly written personal blogs out there. I know this. I also am aware of the fact that I have started and stopped at least three, and maybe four blogs, just in the past couple of years. So why will this one be any different? Who knows if it [...]
