Six Months is a Long Time

It was on June 11th, 2010 that I posted my last rant. Yea, I know six months. How pathetic. Why even have a blog? I wish I could say that something cataclysmic had happened to prevent me from posting. Moons aligned. Stars burnt out. Something like that. But no, nothing like that occurred. It was just regular old life bearing down on me and I just didn’t find the time anymore. Not “couldn’t” because I had done so previously so I knew I could do it. I just didn’t. I’m sure I could go into a bunch of reasons why; work got a little busier (that’s great). Then my 8 year old started football (5 day a week commitment) and my 6 year old started soccer (too much fun), etc. etc.
But really none of that is an excuse. I just didn’t post anymore. Even though I wanted to. So I’m picking up where I left off. I’m sure it’ll take a few weeks to get back into the groove but I’m patient and I hope you are too.
Just for fun here’s a list of things that were (or weren’t) six months ago. Please precede each bullet with the words “Six months ago…”
• There was no iPhone 4 with 4G. There’s an iPhone 4 now but no 4G to use with it
• Rockmelt was what happened when you threw a rock into a volcano, not a pretty cool Social Media browser. @JaeSelle wrote a pretty good pre-review you can check out here.
• I had 212 followers. I now have 879.
• No one knew what a full-on, double, all the way rainbow was. We do now. And there’s even an app for it.
• There was no need to be exposed to radiation or involuntarily felt up at the airport. You could still be voluntarily felt up but that’s a different post.
• Believe it or not, there was no #UsGuys on Twitter. What’s UsGuys you say? I’ll let @REALChaseAdams tell it like it is – right here.
• There was no Flash support for Chrome. Seriously. In 2010.
• Sarah Palin didn’t have a television show. Not sure if the country is better off with or without it.
Well, see you on the next post. Hopefully it won’t be six months from now. Remember – I’m just a cog and this is my blog.
