Spring has Sprung

Recently, I was out driving some of the backroads near my home and while passing the old Joel McCrae place I spotted this field of wild flowers. I made a mental note to head back with one of my cameras. As you can see, I did just that. I like the shots I took, this is my favorite.

What's New Monkey Boy?

Well, if there are any regular readers out there, you should be very excited to see a new post. I will not be concerned if this fact does not make the headlines on the cable news networks as I am relatively certain that I am the only person concerned with my digital musings.

There is really no excuse for not posting more often, I mean it's not as if I am gallivanting around the globe with my lovely wife. On the other hand, when your days mainly consist of getting up, going to work for eight hours, and coming home only to start the cycle over, there's not much to share.

We are heading to Las Vegas next week, that's something. We haven't been for a couple of years. We used to go about twice a year, but for some reason we skipped last year. That might have had something to do with my wife's health issues. Alas, those are behind us now and the road ahead is open...or some such cliche. In fact, we're heading for Alaska the first week of July. I wonder how long it will take me to blog about that? Any bets? Now, if I can only convince the better half that Boston in September is a great idea...Jimmy Buffett is playing the 4th and 6th...duh...How fucking long have you known me?

I imagine that you have all taken note, the silly season is upon us. Actually, it has been for quite some time. Yes, I am speaking of another Presidential election. Whoopee! Is it just me, or are these people some of the worst choices we've had since, well, since the last Presidential election? I may just vote Nader in protest. It's not like my vote here in California will make a difference, we all know where this state's electoral votes will go. I'm tired of the whole thing.

Well, my feelings of guilt are more or less lifted and I no longer feel burdened by my neglect of my blog. Here's to hoping I make it back sooner next time. Maybe even before some stranger happens to stumble upon this swill and reads it.

I need to find something to really sink my teeth into for my next post. Get angry, tell you people what to think, something, anything. I need to spice this place up a bit. Take on a cause. We'll see...
