- Sissy, mom, and I are all feeling a bit yucky. At least Erich is doing well. #
- Holy smoke. My RSS readers jumped 2000%. Was it not reporting properly, or did it really jump? Dunno, but unique vistiors are up too. #
- Huh, Feedburner shows an increase in my RSS readership as well. I wonder what is bringing so many people. #
The Sweetcorn and Watermelon Festival is no more. I am kind of sad to see it go since it has been around since I was a young child, but it is past time for a change.
The mere name conjures hokey inbreds having a hootenanny. Don’t get me wrong, we are a rural community. I appreciate a hootenanny as much as the next guy, but such an event doesn’t convey the best image for a community trying to grow and attract business/residents.
I’m not sure how well a Scarecrow Festival will change that perception, but at least our community members are making change.
I do see opportunity with the new version of the city’s fall festival. There are plans in the works for something in addition to what will already be going on. I won’t reveal it just yet, but it should be fun.
Spring break has consisted of work for me. I have to say that it is nice to just have to work again and not worry about school, tests, and homework. Unfortunately, I will have 3 tests when I go back. The snow days were nice, but only delayed the inevitable.
Perhaps we need a ‘fall break’ as well. Just a little something to give time for relaxation and unwinding. I know there’s the summer, but what about those of us who work and take summer classes?
In my opinion, regular jobs get vacation time, why not something similar for college? I mean, part of the experience (not at RLC, but real colleges) is to prepare you for real life. So this kind of makes sense in my mind.
- Still setting records in readership. I was getting worried there for awhile. My thanks to you all! #
- I have to find a real job. This one is great, but doesn’t pay the bills. #
- Listening to big hair rock and configuring a switch. I am the epitome of dork. #
- Got the switch ready to go. Now to design a workstation for the company. #
