Trying to stay updated
I'm sure that most of you reading this will not be surprised by the way this post begins. I haven't posted in a while. With the exception of Laboratory Tested, most of the blogs I read are not being updated very often either.
However, since the few people who read my blog on occasion continue to berate me for not updating often enough, I'm trying once again to get back on the wagon and update at least once or twice a week. So here are a few items of interesting in my recent life.
Facebook:
Most of my blogger friends are spending alot of time on Facebook now, so being the follower that I am, I've gotten sucked into it as well. Now that I'm actually using it, I'm surprised at its usefulness. It's not at all like what I thought it would be, and I've already started reconnecting with people that I have grown farther apart from in recent years. However, it doesn't give me the ability to really keep people informed of what's going on in my life like I thought it would. A blog, for all its self-indulgence, is still the better tool for that.
Upcoming trips:
Well, first of all there is the standard Xmas trip coming up. We'll be heading up to my folks' place for the holiday. Then I've got a whole week off to do nothing until after the first of the year. I'm hoping I won't just sit on my ass and play video games the whole time, but the Xbox is so . . . demanding.
Anyway, the next trip after that is a short jaunt up to DC to visit some dear friends. I'm really looking forward to that. Getting to meet my friend's new animal companion, eating great food, and seeing some sights. After that, it's going to be all about saving up time and money for, hopefully, a trip to Europe in the fall.
Upcoming events:
I've spent too much money on getting to see some great shows coming up in February. One weekend, we're going to see Ron White at the Paramount theater. I'm really looking forward to seeing him. He's the only Blue Collar comedian that I think has real talent. And he's in the prime of his career, or so it seems.
The other big event may not be worth the money, but it is still something that the wife and I are both really looking forward to. We're going to get to see Robin Williams performing live at the Frank Irwin Center. It's not going to be quite like seeing him in the 80s when he was in his prime, but I've almost never been disappointed by one of his performances. Almost never. I guess we'll see.
Well, that's about all for now. More updates to follow. Hopefully.
