50 posts later, and I need a short break! : )
Hey everyone. Thanks for sticking with my blog, even though it is a bit schitzophrenic. This is the 50th post, and just shy of 500 total hits (well over 500 page views however).
I have so much to write about; a few comments about the overrated power of eyewitness accounts, a complaint about Christianity, the whole game our government is playing with terror alert levels, the way we communicate our emotions so cryptically, my renewed (and never before realized) love for golf, my fascination with punk rock, and the fact that I am perhaps the last person I want to be on this earth.
But the truth is, I am going to take the holiday weekend off, as well as the majority of next week. I hope that I do not lose any of you, because I have a very nice little "fan" base going here. I just need a little break from the internet (blog, email, IM, etc), and need to spend some time in meditation and soul searching for a change. And maybe some exercising... God knows I need plenty of that.
Loyal readers know that I am usually a wreck... I struggle with a lot of things that I try to keep a good sense of humor about. I struggle with my fixation on material goods, my lack of community service, matters of my heart, my faith, and a debt (albeit relatively small) that is forever looming over my head. I need to do some shuffling and sorting out, so this holiday weekend is a good time to do so.
I'm not saying to stop checking in completely... I may have a couple surprises in the next seven days, and if I get bored (or cheer up a little), I will need to blog!
So, I will see you around, and let's make a date for Thursday of next week as day one of operations resuming here at the old Bubblegoose. Forgive me if you don't catch me online, writing email, or updating here before then.
See ya next Thursday (or sooner... you all know I am wishy washy)
