Beer Garden Season Officially Open

Spent last night at the Bell's Beer Garden.  Pretty much one of the best places on Earth, or at least Kalamazoo.  

Heading to Foster's soccer game in about 10 minutes, than off to the SW Side for some games of bags, and I'm sure some beer drinking.  

Hopefully the rain that's planned, won't happen.  Damn April showers.

Back at writing...

Been away from the blog for a while.... I won't get into it in detail but "distracted" and "led on" feels like enough to say about it.  Either way a little pain and a little heartache always  seem to fire up the creative juices.  I write better angry, and drunk.  I can always edit sober.  

Just got back from dodgeball, only four players from the team showed up.  Won anyway.  Nice.

Going to start writing seriously again, now.  If nothing else for sanity's sake.  

To start, I need to begin my Murtagh List, i.e. a list of "shit I'm too old for" -- things like Dawn Patrols.  I certainly don't see myself abiding by this list all that often... good to have as reference though.

Also, the book is getting going.  I have at the very least one year at the new job (or more specifically February 2010), and while I'm here (and since there is so little else to do in this town) I am finishing this effort.   

It'll be ten years soon since the Chapter 1 happened.   A decade feels like a good amount of time to have passed in order to accurately take stock of a situation enough to write about it.
