You know, I should just call this thing a "quarterly"

I mean seriously, who am I kidding? How many of my posts begin with the general sentiment of "been busy, haven't been able to post, will try to post more often"? It's kind of sad really. I suppose after well over a year of posts (yeah, all what, 4 of them) relating that sentiment, I should just give up the ghost and call it what it is: an infrequently updated blog. There, it's out in the open now, I can stop the pangs of guilt at not updating it, and you, faitful reader, can stop feeling superior as you say to yourself "he's not gonna post for another few months.....just watch". Yet another sentiment that seems to be repeated here (and will be again tonight) is that I don't have much time to post. As it is, I have spaghetti, meatballs, and home made garlic bread just finishing on the stove, so the heavenly aroma of garlic is calling me toward the kitchen. So alas, trusty reader, I will not be expounding greatly on any obscure metal bands, guitar players, computer particulars or anything else tonight. I'll merely say, hey, I'm alive, things are very well, we love our house, our daughter's 2 years old, jobs are busy (but good), we're going to Canada in a month, and about 1000 other things.

But, I hope all is well with you. If I happen to be able to post a more interesting blurb soon, I will. If not, I won't and all of us can just deal with that fact. I'll stop feeling like I'm letting people down by not posting more, and you can stop feeling disappointed that I don't post more.....deal? OK, now I'm off to eat some dinner.
