Darn it!
I went and did it again...cuff me for neglecting my blog. After a while, you just sorta get busy and forget you even have one. Alas, here I am writing about my current excuse for not writing here -- a "Catch 22" I suppose. So why haven't I been bloggin'?
Excuse#1: Busy at work. Yes, this is currently my major reason for not writing here. With the gambit of projects I've been working on -- from new development to support to application enhancements -- I've been busy. One good thing that has come out of work recently is my switch to the "early coverage" shift at work. I get in at 7am and go home about 4pm. This makes for a relatively pleasant commute to-and-fro. In addition to my "real" work, I've been working on a revamp of the Springfield YMCA website (Springfield Missouri) as well as new websites for Faux Aesthete (Kelsey's side project) and the Plano Ice Dogs...
Excuse #2: Busy at Life. Yes, apart from work I have a bit of a life. This includes spending time with Kelsey, playing my games (currently World of Warcraft) and doing normal "life-like" things. Lumped in with this "life" category, I performed in Smoke on the Mountain (playing the role of Dennis Sanders) back in October. I was then recruited to play Dennis in the sequel Sanders' Family Christmas, set a few years later around Christmastime. We have a mess of shows in mid-December at the Plano Courtyard Theatre too! I'm really having a good time with the show, the cast and overall with getting back into musical theatre. It's been a while! Plus I totally dig the bluegrass music...
Excuse #3: Busy at Hockey. Yup, I'm still playing despite the fact that my knees hurt, my shoulders ache and I get more and more beat up every time I play. I love the sport and I can't give up, yet. I'm currently playing on two teams -- goaltending for the Angry Pirates (I-League SSHL) and skating at center for the Plano Ice Dogs (D-league SSHL). The Ice Dogs finished 1st in the regular season (last session) but we lost in the finals to the Skateful Dead. So far this year we're 3-0-1, undefeated and looking good for the rest of the fall/winter session.
Excuse #4: Busy at Church. This is a great thing for me. After everything that happened in my life last year, I was a bit perturbed with God. To be matter-of-fact, I was mad at Him and I fell as far away from Him as I could. But God is persistent and found me via Kelsey and the dog park in Plano. She met a lady there who invited us to Celebration Covenant Church in Frisco. We started going nearly 8 weeks ago and haven't stopped yet. I'm on the Web team there (for the church's website --yes it is being reworked as we speak) and Kels and I are happily involved in the @Home groups. I've not felt this good about my relationship with Him in a long time and that, in turn, is fixing things in my earthly relationships too.
So...are those good reasons? Heck no! I need to blog...
