Excuses
Why haven’t I wriiten a single post to this blog in six months? Well, primarily laziness, but I’m pretty good at coming up with excuses, so here’s a partial list of preferred answers to that question:
- I’ve been raising a baby
- I taught a bunch of extra classes in the fall semester
- I’ve been diligently updating Twitter (and therefore Facebook), so it’s not like I haven’t been on the Internet
- I’m still the captain of my firehouse
- The band still isn’t done recording
- I didn’t have a car from October through New Years’
- I was in despair over the Mets’ awful 2009 season, and the Giants’ season didn’t perk me up any
So, as you can plainly see, there were lots of reasons I’ll describe as “good” for not blogging all this time. But, whatever the reason, I’ve missed it, and my writing skills have suffered as a result. I have a lot less schoolwork to do this semester, we’ll finish our album soon, and I’m going out as captain in April (right after Jack turns 1), so hopefully things will pick up around here.
There are some topics I hope to cover soon:
- Are there really “good numbers” to have in your football pool?
- What are some of the more awesome technological tools that I’m using, that you should be using?
- What’s it like to record an album by yourselves with just a MacBook Pro?
Ok, yeah, that last list is meant as a reminder to myself, but hopefully it’ll keep me in some of your RSS readers. :)
