Whats up doc?

Yes, I've been pretty quiet on here lately. Anyway, lots going on, its "that time of year" in a lot of different ways. It's spring, it's tax time, it's time to get SOMETHING figured out about the house, be it renters or arm wrestling with the bank to avoid credit record apocalypse, etc.

We all do what we must to get by and stay sane, right? Right. So, one thing I'm doing is starting up a little side project. Unfortunately, this side project requires a little bit of anonymity so I'm not going to just point you all to the website because, well, what would the point of that be? Also, its not an incredibly brilliant project, so in many cases if you were to hear the concept you'd scratch your head and say, "Wha? You're doing what? I don't get it. I mean, I don't know why you're doing this. Is anyone actually doing it? I mean...what's the point?" And the point is...its the internet, stupid. Let's see if I can take a somewhat shaky idea, throw behind it all the mighty engines of the internets and pull something out of it, be it money, fame, or just warm fuzzy satisfaction that I actually turned one of my silly 11pm "Hey, wouldn't it be funny if..." ideas and tried to make it fly, or at least tried to see how far it could be thrown before rolling to a stop. So, unfortunately I will not be telling you anything more about this project except that I'm not putting much time into it at all. But I think its fun and it gives me something to scribble ideas about on the subway. And thats all I'm saying about that.

It is somewhat spring like, more and more each day. Today it got up to 60 degrees and tomorrow it is also supposed to be warm AND rainy! Sounds like spring to me! Never mind that we got -5 inches of snow this year. It got chilly. I only HAD to wear my woolen parka maybe a handful of times, and even then only because I was going to be outside for a couple hours at a time. Today I didn't even wear a jacket. I wore a short sleeve shirt! With an undershirt, of course (I'm not completely barbaric), but short sleeves none the less! Most New Yorkers are still wearing their winter or late fall coats and jackets. What a bunch of pussies. Like even the most surprising change of weather would land you in what, 40 degree weather for a few minutes? Rain? Gimme a break.

Felix is a dancing fiend. If it were appropriate, I'd post footage. But since this blog, as niche a readership as it has, is still public and so not a place where I am supposed to be posting videos of Felix. Not to worry. Perhaps on the next family video uplink we'll get him to show off his moves a bit.

And just in case you didn't know who you were supposed to be voting for (if and when you ever have the opportunity), it's Barack Obama. Whatever it is you heard that makes you worried or unsure, forget about all that. It just means you've got some issues with your poli-sci-centers in your brain. I'll take the heat on this one, I'll take it off your worried shoulders. You vote Barack because I said so and its just like you chose not to vote except that this time you actually did the right thing, see? Don't think about it too hard. Just vote. Barack.
