For the first time in almost a year, I am now completely current in all of my bills. I have nothing outstanding, and still enough in my checking account for lunch. (Payday is Wednesday, so that’s not a worry.) Let’s see if I can go for two months in March!
I’ve updated my political platform over here. As more issues develop, I’ll try and keep it updated. (I took out a lot of issues to make it more foundational, and am going to try and keep it to the most basic issues upon which others are based.)
Also, look for some new things in the next couple of days. I finally have a photo gallery almost functional, and now just have to blend it with the site’s look and feel.
I’m home. Have been for… well, under 24 hours now. The jet lag hasn’t hit me yet, and last night was surprisingly sleepful. Maybe I’ve unlocked some well-kept secret of travel, because I’ve been awake all day, and I’m not getting tired yet.
But in any event, don’t expect a lot of activity from me for the next couple of days while I readjust. I’ve got work piled up, will be going home to the northland for family holidays, and then a couple of small trips here and there.
And tomorrow is my birthday. I realized that after 21, there’s nothing to really look forward to. So turning 22 is going to be boring. I’m going to Chipotle with a couple of friends. It won’t even be like my birthday last year where I ordered a beer. Just regular Chipotle.
(Alright, maybe I’ll order a margarita…)
You might notice there’s a new box to the right-hand side of the posts, inviting you to subscribe. If you enter your e-mail address, you’ll receive all of the day’s posts in your e-mail between 9:00 and midnight each evening. This service, and the new RSS feeds, are being delivered by Feedburner. (Another piece of trivia: one of the veeps over there spoke at the 2006 ELCA Communicators’ Conference. You can see some of the feedback to his presentation on his Web site here, and his blog is linked in the blogroll.)
I also changed the header picture. One of these days I’ll finish up the script for rotating pictures, but today isn’t the day.
Finally, look for podcasting soon.
