Well it has been quite some time since I started this blog. Interesting that in the last two years since its inception, all of 2 people other than myself have looked at it (thanks ebon muse for taking pity), with zero comments. It is clear that I’m not quitting my day job to make a living on the internet any time soon. But since I did go to all the trouble of setting this thing up so long ago, I think I’ll go ahead and start making some entries. I think a lot of my reticence about doing more advertising has to do with the fact that I’m not quite ready to “come out” to the whole wide world with regard to my lack of religious beliefs. So this blog exists, but it’s sort of like letting the whole world read your private email which makes me a bit squeamish. Sort of like facebook, which I did end up setting up for my genealogy research.
But facebook really does suck for antisocial types like me. I really on ly use it for family stuff and there still remain a small number of close family members which I have not been completely honest with regarding religion, most notably my parents. So for the time being this blog will exist more as a personal diary than as anything I will ever release to the general public. Maybe I’ll delete everything and start over with more of a focus than usual, something non controversial maybe. But that’s probably pissing into the wind.
So nothing here today. Weather should be good tomorrow and sunday for Argonne’s open house and Cait’s triathlon downtown. Mom survived the surgery Wednesday so that’s a good thing, and Barb stayed a few days to get her out of the woods, looks like mom’s doing very well. more later. GD
