I have been slacking, to say the least.  Blogging has been set on the back-burner and other things have been taking precedence in my life.  My hand-written journal, of which I usually post every other day, has even experienced some neglect as of recent.  Let me state my case.

Starbucks is great, but it really takes away from my weekly routine.  Granted, I work from about 4:30 to 10:00am, so my daily schedule is not interrupted.  However, waking up at four in the morning requires me to go to bed around nine or ten so that I can be responsive and productive when coming to the office.  I love the job, so do not get me wrong.

Going to three services has proven to be more of a work load than originally anticipated.  I thought my part was going to be the easiest of them all, but that is simply not the case.  For one, I am trying to make everything that happens behind the scenes run on a higher level.  Doing so requires many hours of research and experimentation.  We are getting there, but have a ways to go.  Another great thing that has consumed time is starting up a youth band.  Not easy work.

Lastly, most of my free time that is not been spent with my wife or visiting friends and family has been consumed by playing Final Fantasy IV on my Nintendo DS.  Yes, a video game.  Great game, great story.  It is like reading a good book.

There.  I have finally posted again.  No, this is not a complaint.  I love what happens in my life, but like I said above, blogging is on the back-burner for now.  At least you know what my life looks like as recent.
