Now it's 4 1/2 years later. When will this end?
I really meant to blog daily when I set this up. It's amazing how life gets in the way. In the 4 1/2 years I have 2 kids and 1 less dog. Bye Ginger, we miss you a lot. :(
What's going on currently...hmm...
The stock market is in freefall, my 401(k) sucks, work's stock is plummeting, today is my sons first birthday, I have to set up a Treo when it arrives, and I had lunch with my wife.

Continuing on
First I waited 3 days to post and now it's 5 days.
It was a busy weekend. First, after work on Friday Liz and I had dinner with our friends Daniel and Amandalyn at Amici's restaurant in Indianapolis. We are trying to "Low-Carb it" and Italian food is a difficult choice. Liz had a dish that could be put on lettuce instead of pasta, so she was good. I on the other hand didn't want that, it didn't look good to me, so I went ahead and had a calzone with meat and cheese. I was bad.
Then Liz had auditions for Lucky Stiff that will be put on by the Apprentice Players. They were on Saturday and Sunday. I video taped the auditions so she could go back and really watch what she saw. Each audition was just short of 2 hours. There was singing, dancing and reading for each auditioneer. Overall I was happy with the results. The "kids" were in the age range of 14 to 20. Some of them actually blew me away. I had heard a few before, but they were so much improved from the last time, I was surprised.
Then on Saturday night I went to see Van Helsing with my friend Brian. It was pretty much what I expected, but there were a few twists I didn't expect. Overall I enjoyed the film. It may have been touch too long, but it was OK. Then Brian, Liz and I went out and had some Mexican food at 9:30, which is much too late for Mexican food.
Then on Sunday Liz got up and went to church. I stayed home and played City of Heroes on my PC. We then went the previously mentioned auditions. That night our friends Daniel and Amandalyn came over and we watched 2 episodes of Alias. We both got into Alias late so we are now trying to catch up on season 3. We are up to episode 6, but unfortunately they are going to be gone most of the next month, so it will be a while before more Alias is watched.
Well that's it for the weekend. Stay tuned for more.

Back to blogging
I've been remiss in my blogging duties. I wanted to make sure I would write every day so I could look back and see what was going on. So much for that.

Listening In
Apparently I am a very good listener. When people at work have problems with supervisors or other employees, I am sought out to talk to. I don't know if I look like I am paying attention or if I actually am saying things that help, but apparently it does help. They seem to leave in a better mood.
For that I am happy. Too many people seem to be unhappy. I notice it in the car when driving. People have scowls on their faces and just look pissed at the world. I'll admit that I get upset and mad at times, but I look for something that will make me happy. Singing badly in the car, reading a book, playing with my dogs, holding Liz's hand... you name it. I try. I fail from time to time, but I only get one go around, so I better try to enjoy it.
