New year, new blog…er…sort of.  I decided to delete all previous posts.  Sorry Squier, I know you have been reading and re-reading all of them.

Not real sure on what the new year will bring.  Busy as hell, but not busy at all.  I always feel I have lots to do but that just leaves me with that empty feeling of not doing any of it.  Upon the prompting of a fellow blogger (Prone to Wander) unknowingly to him, I have decided to schedule my daily life.  Minute by minute, hour to hour.  Well, maybe not that precise but a daily schedule just the same.

Here is the list of things I know at this very moment will affect my schedule.

  • Kids – Mason is a 20month old tasmanian devil and Addie doesn’t stop talking…ever!  Not even if you ask, she once told me: “I can’t stop talking daddy…I can’t!”
  • Grad school apathy.  Hoops, lots of hoops and I am tired of jumping.
  • I love bacon.  I think I could survive solely on bacon, chili and Grain Belt beer.
  • Work Work Work.  There is a certain degree of apathy here too which is why I am constantly perusing the job sites online.
  • Track season.  It’s an obsession, I love spring and I love track.  It’s almost as if the whole reason I survive the first half of the school year is to get to track season.
  • The wife and our helter skelter social life.  There is no moss on THIS social agenda.
  • Hobbies.  Oh wait, they should be worked into the schedule.  I have too many of them, and too many ideas.
  • The wife and our desire to find another home.  Not that we don’t have a good one, we just need some more room, and we want to get away from the chicken factory and across the RR tracks.
  • Fat.  I’m fat, well not real visibly but definitely according to the scale.  If one could actually go by ones BMI I am a few points away from being OBESE.  I’m a lard ass. This too should be worked into the schedule (and will be), not the fat part, the getting un-fat part.
  • Going to tackle a few 5K’s this summer, best be gettin’ in shape.

This list in addition to the hundred bazillion other things I think of to keep me from doing anything worthwhile will continue to drive me bonkers each and every day.  Stay tuned to find out how it all works out…
