I Need Breakage!


    Ahoy, Crazy People! 

    Before I begin, here's the link to my Blogger Blog so you can all update your bookmarks and whatnots if you should so choose. 

    Aside from that, I'm going to most likely be taking a little break from the blogging world for a couple of days to rest my sore fingers and tend to the usual chaos of life.  I've got yet another infusion slated for Friday, and believe me, I can certainly feel it when it wears off, and by the day of my infusion, I'm a  big wicked, bitter, achy, arthritic bastard.  So, it's probably in my best interests to make it a light week rather than bang away on the keyboard with these fingers that are just swollen, pudgy, little digits. 

    In other words, I've got two hands full of thumbs. 
   
    Now, on to the other news... 

    Yes.  I am jumping from AOL to Blogspot.  I like the idea of having a little more control over layouts and whatnots (even though I really don't know what the hell I'm doing), and I'd also like to hear from more folks out there on the  Whirled-Wide interweeble.  And, I think Blogger's more open commenting environment makes that possible. 

    AOL, though ridiculously easy to use, has gotten somewhat sterile for me.  And, if my writing is going to continue to suck, I'd much rather it suck on a unique page.  In my confused mind, that sort of thing somehow manages to make sense to me. 

    Now, originally, I tinkered around with the notion of using this blog as a mirror of my Blogger blog.  It's actually easy to do through AOL's mobile blogging feature, but it is kind of clumsy. 

    Don't worry, though.  I'm going to try to continue posting here, but it's going to be occasional. 

    So, I think that settles that.  I'm going to wander off to go watch Eureka.  But, please feel free to leave your questions, comments, and sundry scoldings if you've got any.

    So what you're saying is, it's just like every other day, you just ache? ;)

  5. Hi !!! I want to know if I need permission to visit your new spot at Blogspot. I would like to visit you there as I do here. I hope that you won't be leaving us too soon. I think that a nice rest is always needed once in a while. I too haven't been posting because I don't have much to talk about besides work and I don't want to bore people with my talk of work. What do you like the most about Blogspot ?? I hope that you will come back fully rested. I always like visiting you. Take care.

  7. Hi Dan,
     I've been a reader, but not a comment(er?).  If this is your sucky, sore fingers, writing, we're in for a  treat when we travel abroad to find you.  Thanks for the smiles and mind tweaking entries.

  9. Yeah, yeah, go ahead and complicate my life. Now I have to stretch myself into a new domain. (Actually I already have a blog myself over there-sticks out tongue). I'm writing to pass on a guitar player wasn't sure if you had heard of him before. Doc was listening to him a few nights ago , thought it might be up your alley.
