Happy New Year (four months late) and my post-Katrina voyage to NOLA
So it’s been a while since I blogged. Yep. That’s about all I can say about that, since looking back, I’m not quite sure what’s kept me away from the computer.

Shortly after returning from our Christmas in the Dominican, I launched a Web site at work, did some convention travel and we made a long-overdue visit to the finally-finished house of my parents in Wyoming. Then Ryan traveled for work, I hosted the party for our FCL league playoffs, Ryan traveled again, Ry’s parents made visits to shop for houses, I turned the big three-oh, traveled to New Orleans for work and suddenly, before I knew it, it was April Fool’s Day. By the way, it’s nearing the end of the day and I have yet to be fooled.

It seems like we’re deep in the throws of spring this week. We haven’t seen the sun since Wednesday and it’s been a constant rain ever since, which has deposited some puddles in our laundry room and basement. Thankfully, the rain subsided sometime today, though we’re not in the clear yet; rumor has it we’ll have snow by the end of the week.

I’ve been spending the day wondering why I go through such periods extremes with this blog – from frequent posting to long periods of neglect. Sometimes I feel like I’m that way with just about anything in my life – from personal relationships, to work and personal hobbies. I’m still debating whether this is a normal fact of anyone’s life or a severe character flaw.
