i’ve been a bad blogger, for shame. i’m sorry kids. i know you’ve all been out in the cold too long.

well for some reason, perhaps daylight savings, i dunno, i seem to have gotten a bit of steam in my stride this weekend, and i’m starting to actually get shit done the last coupla days. i dunno i was in a funk (imagine that) and i seem to be (hopefully) coming out of it.

first thing i accomplished was uploading something in the order of 1000 pics from xmas on to flickr. i dunno it got to the point where i didn’t even want to think about uploading them. but i sat down and did it, and as lame as it sounds, it was a relief.

i’m digging in to the  mounds of laundry, contemplating yardwork in a serious manner, and i actually did push ups yesterday (i think i’m as fat as i’ve ever been right not, if not more) yes kids, it’s time to come out of hibernation.

so i have a couple plans for the site. i need to get angry man back up there-change these images of random scenery, i’m thinking of setting up an el coche fantasico page again, and finally taking on the task of the mythical ‘i’ll never’ list. did i not mention that. i want to create a page of all the jackass things i said i’d never do, and then, naturally later in life, did. a sample? yoga, diet coke, pet ownership (first cat, then multiple cats, then dog). oh there’s tons. it’ll be a fun jaunt down jefke’s a douchebag lane, you’ll love it, trust me.

as part of that actually, one major thing is i’m getting a new laptop soon, and i can’believe it, i’m considering a macbook, no not the air, nor the hugeass expensive macbook pro, but the simple hearty salt of the earth macbook (richard–you ok? did you hit your head on the desk as you fainted). i’m torn b/c i really really also want a tablet pc. no i’m not a doctor, nor a field engineer, but i think i’d really use it, especially in meetings, and on the train and can you imagine actually drawing shit in visio? how cool would that be.

i even placed an order for the tablet via a super discount through mr. sarge. but when the ship date was mid may, and evil ex coworker don started spouting off about dual bootable OS’s on the macbook and running xp on it if i needed to, i got nerrvous, so i’m trying ot cancel the tablet order and regroup. god help me.

in other news, family is good. we wehre just out in norther cali, san fran and such. oddly enough i dont’ have much to report. san fran is a neat city. nice to visit, dont’ think i’d want to live there. the hills are no joke man, that shit is crazy. alcatraz as cool, though not as creepy or spooky as i would have hoped. redwood trees are indeed very fucking big. vineyard are pretty, err sorta. traveling with a toddler is hard. and i think that’s about it-

other than that, i tried to save some money by not admitting the diabetic cat to the hospital at 50+ bucks a day for her shots. well naturally she got sick from not getting her shots while we were away, so she had to go in to the hospital. costing more than if i had jsut put her in there. brilliant! another one for the “everytime i try to save money, i get screwed…” files. she seem to be better now, and well, it’s just more money down the drain…yay!

ok back to work kiddies.
