I have been busy

This time of year, I always set aside time to reflect on what I accomplished in the year past, and think about the future.  One thing that strikes me this year more than ever is that I have been busy. Too busy. Everything optional in my life has taken a back seat - my photography, my flying, my ham radio, my exercise; among other things.  And Work has been right there up front. I have just had one of those times when I needed to focus, and I did that so well that 2007 seems to have vanished. Wow. I can't believe it is almost over yet.  Where did it go?

I'm going to start posting again for sure. It feels bad to have such a long pause on this blog and the other ones.. Facebook is keeping me entertained, watching everyone else posting.  I do at least get to do my tagging on del.icio.us, which counts as blogging, I suppose. And lately I have been sharing and staring lots of articles from my Google Reader. I suppose that means I have not been totally off the air.. but I can do better and I will.. just stay tuned. It's gonna be another busy year but I am still having fun most of the time. I just need to invest more time to share that and I will in 2008.

My Feeds

I have been rather busy lately and I haven't had much time to update this blog.   Since I have a few minutes, I thought I'd share some of the feeds that I enjoy.  My favorite reader is NetNewswire on Mac OSX, but I also use Google Reader since it makes it easier to share the feeds with friends.

Here it is :

Five Things You Didn't know about me

My buddy Mike Olson over at Subclock has tagged me in the 'Five Things' meme that is sweeping the blogosphere.  That means I need to tell you 5 things about me and also link this to 5 other people that I know.  It took me a couple days of thinking about it, but here is my list of 5 things you probably didn't know about me:

1.  My first car was a 1965 Mercury Comet which my dad and I rebuilt in 1975.

 

2. My favorite band has been Steely Dan for as long as I can remember.

3. I once worked as a midnight DJ on a radio station in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

4. I can send and receive morse code at more then 20 words per minute, once I get warmed up.

5. My favorite thing to eat is a Roast Beef PoBoy, Dressed with lots of gravy, and the best place in the world to eat it is at Mother's on the corner of Poydras and Tchoupitoulas, in downtown New Orleans.

Now it's your turn. I tag Jojo Anonuevo, Mei Lin Fung, Barak Berkowitz, and Shinichi Tomita, and John Hall.
