Sorry!!
I feel I should apologize to anyone that might be following my blog... I haven't posted anything new in quite some time, but I have excuse(s)!! First of all, turkey day took a lot of my time. Even though no family came to visit, I did have a friend fly up here (thanks Danielle!) to take part in turkey festivities, and help keep me somewhat sane. Not that I've ever really been "sane" per se, just that normally I'm able to maintain some semblance of it!
Another reason for my lack of blogging, is my constant search for gainful employment, which has finally begun to pay off! I just landed a very decent gig as a bartender at a local casino, which promises to be both fun and lucrative. Maybe once I start getting regular paychecks, I can return to my floccinaucinihilipilification of money! Sorry guys, couldn't resist that one...
That's all for now, but I will be much more diligent in my posting now that the holiday is over, and now that I have a job. Much less to worry about, much more to write about.
Actually, I lied. One more thing... I've been thinking about starting a broadcast on youtube. I'll start with a few small ones, and see how it goes. Let me know if you have any ideas for shows, short stories, musical requests, etc...
Go North, Young Man!
Leaving St. Louis was easy enough. I headed west to Kansas City, then north along the border of MO, KS, and NE. I started to get a little discouraged, because the land started flattening out... Then I started to see mysterious hills looming on the horizon. Iowa's loess hills are a very unique geological feature, and are aparently only found in two places on Earth! The other place is China! Iowa has an interesting state motto: Iowa... "The Good Life." Another suggestion might be "Iowa... It's NOT Flat!" Seriously, everyone back in Texas tried to tell me it was flat and full of nothing but beef and corn fields. Yeah, I've seen a few corn fields, but the majority of them are terraced up the hills. So far Iowa has been home to the friendliest people I have ever met! Now if I can just find a decent job, I might stay a while...
More to come- updates and photos!
