Snowing

Yesterday I was wearing shorts. Today's forecast is a high of 33 and a low of 14!! I've always thought that along with the possible ozone damage and global warming, possibly our man-made calendar system might just be fallible.

I was used to winter cshortly after school started as a kid. Now it starts just in time for Thanksgiving. Also, I remember finishing the school year wearing shorts. For the past few years, April has felt more like January than July.

So, maybe the hurricanes and tornadoes and all that are due to the ocean warming up a little, but I don't think the cold snap holding out until November and lasting through May are the same thing.

The cold weather came in on a massively blustery wind which tore shingles off my neighbor's roof and tossed our empty garbage cans all the way down the street. Our recycling bins were in the next-door neighbor's bushes. It's still blowing, and now I'm thinking that I might not have to cut down the dead poplar trees in our backyard after all. I just hope that if they fall, they do minimal damage.

Back to the job hunt...

Why Do I Do This?

I was originally inspired by the Web log posted on the site for Propellerhead Software. They developed a cool 808 emulator which eventually morphed into an entire digital audio workstation package (Reason). Those early posts documented their development process and gave a human insight into their struggles. It was cool. So, I bought some hosted space and figured out FrontPage to put a rudimentary site together. My goal was to connect my family, but then realized this could be a great way for me to keep track of happenings over time. Eventually, the manual, HTML journal gave way to this Blogger setup - much easier to deal with, and not bound to one computer.

Ultimately, this is more about nothing than an episode of Seinfeld, but I appreciate that you've read this far. Really.
