I wish I had more interesting stuff to share...

It's been almost two months since my last post, and I am still not sure anyone is reading, but I figure I'll throw something new up (on the blog...regurgitation isn't really my style!). I am on a detail in a field office (I normally work at an 800-number call center), so I am meeting the government-reliant public face-to-face. It has been a great adventure and I really enjoy working with the public, but it only lasts until the end of June. Then back to the regular monotonous job.

Spring has been interesting so far in the Pacific Northwest. We've had snow, hail, rain and sunshine! Pretty much each day! Our summers are wonderful, though.

So many of the blogs I enjoy are starting to close up shop. I can't say that I disagree with their decision, but how long can one blog about their life anyway? I admit I haven't fully invested myself into it...time has a way of getting away from us, especially as we grow older.

Oh, well! There's always tomorrow!

Where did the time go?



I know I'm not exactly twink-age, but I could have sworn that Alzheimer's was a "later-in-life" disease! I kept thinking I posted a week ago and needed to catch-up, but it's February 10th now! What happened?

Actually, I have been working looooooong hours of late and come home too exhausted to think. I was recently given the opportunity to work in a local field office (I currently work at a Teleservice Center), but, being a supervisor, I have LOTS of things to close out before I can head over there. Granted, I will be returning in four months, and someone else will take over in my absence, but I don't like leaving loose ends! I am trying to write all of my mid-term appraisals (even though they aren't technically due until mid-March) and give them before I go! Nothing like trying to find synonyms for "You should not ACT like a government employee" to get the adrenaline flowing! Go figure!

Anyways, I still intend to do something insightful and magical, but I have to find the time! Since I haven't had comments, I am not sure if folks are reading or not, but I like to think that I can catch a chuckle every now and then!

I really need to keep up with this blog!

Wow! It's been a while since I've posted and lots has been going on! Christmas has passed, I took down the tree and the outside lights (granted, the living room is still full of stuff that actually needs to be put away or stored), had New Year's (nothing exciting...sad, but true), had a week off of work, and shaved three of the cats (well...the groomers shaved them, not me!). It's been quite a ride!


Today, the Seahawks play the Packers in the playoffs. I am one of those gays that actually can watch sports and understand what's going on, but I don't do it frequently. However, I will be watching the game today because EVERYONE will be talking about it at work, and I like to be part of the conversation! We shall see how this plays out!


I have some interesting thoughts on family that I will be bringing up in a later post, but I will leave it for now as I need to think about how to put it without making T's blood family seem like a twisted, dysfunctional mess (they are MUCH worse than the average family's twisted, dysfunctional mess). Stay tuned!


Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Resolutions...that's another story and one that I will wait to talk about as well!
