This blog is sick, but it ain't dead yet

I guess I need to start blogging more often and have shorter posts. Most of my posts have been long and infrequent, which makes it difficult to keep at it. Time has been a commodity lately. It's starting to warm, so yard work season has started (although the days are getting longer, which always gives me a little energy boost). Work is super busy. Mix in WoW and quality time with the wife - that translates into zero time for blogging. Maybe if I had something meaningful to write about...

So the most difficult thing to happen in recent months was the anniversary of a few friends deaths. Two were on February 25th (ten years ago), one was March 6th (one year ago). All three died in car accidents. Death is a shitty thing. Especially the unexpected death of a young person. I miss them all. I guess that's all there really is to say about that. And wear your seat belt.

I'll do a complete 180 now. New Beck album: good. Check it out. It's fairly Odelay-esque, but I liked that album, so that's fine with me. Not a groundbreaking style change like Sea Change, but still good and upbeat. Two thumbs up. I've heard good things about the new Jack Johnson, and there's a new Daft Punk album that is begging to be listened to. More information as details warrant.

Just to follow up, Rojo was kinda gay. I didn't like it nearly as much as Bloglines. Of course, I have way too many RSS feeds to read as it is. I never get through all of them on a regular basis. Another new fascination of mine is podcasting, eventhough I don't have an iPod. Bluggcast provides a flash interface to listen to quite a few, so that's a nice break from listening to music. Geek News Central is pretty addictive, as is the Engadget podcast.

I guess I'll take this opportunity to quit blogging and save a little to write about in a few days. I've got more to say, but I guess I won't drain out everything and be left with nothing to say for two weeks.
