Where ya been?
I'm still around, but I have been fairly distracted lately. My attempts to establish a workout routine have been somewhat successful, but then again, an always changing schedule makes it hard to stick to. With some nice warm weather occurring lately, I have been allowing myself the indulgence of evenings on the deck with a good book, instead of watching TV or sitting at a 'puter. I read Amerika (Franz Kafka), Ender's Game (Orson Scott Card) and Anathem (Neal Stephenson) over the last month or so. Probably better for my brain than watching Enterprise or American Chopper. Also, after spending some time removing a couple of stumps from my yard (no small task, that) we had the joy of a sewer backup and subsequent 'crushed-pipe' scare that had me quite uneasy. Luckily, it was some 'creative' plumbing, and the sewer is again clear and working and I didn't have to trench the whole yard (phew!). I have been getting out whenever possible and riding the bike. The trail I ride is young, and somewhat punishing on a rigid, but I am enjoying trying to ride it at least once a week.
So, posting to the website has taken a backseat to the rest of life for a while. Stay tuned, I'll be around...
