Do you hear the sound of crickets around here? I thought so.

I’ve been buried with work here lately and haven’t found much time to post anything worth reading. On top of my insane workload, I started another project to use up any remaining scraps of free time I can muster. Wanna know what my new project is? A new blog, of course.

What’s Up with Bloglines?

For the last month or so, I’ve noticed something strange with Bloglines.  Every few days, a good number of the feeds I’m subscribed to show a considerable number of unread posts that I’ve already read.  Some of the “new” (or updated, I suppose) posts are a week or more old.  I can’t imagine that many old posts across 45 different feeds are being updated.

8 Facts You Didn’t Know About Me

You already got to see the wizard behind the curtain, but now I have to share eight things you didn’t know about me.  I was double-teamed by Don and Roberta to participate in this meme, so I’ll be a good sport and join in.

Goodbye Sweet Vacation

I’m back from vacation! 

Vacations always seem too short to me.  Five days came and went in no time and it’s back to the daily grind already.  The one thing I really dislike about taking time off work is having to spend a week catching up for the two days I was away.  I’m just glad there were no serious problems at work while I was away from the computer.
