When Words Collide, Sentences Form

Gosh, I've been boring...

I'm finally getting the chance to catch up on reading others' blogs, checking out important sites like ESPN, MSNBC and of course the obligatory Myspace (there's another cool word...obligatory...)...and I stumbled back across my blog and I thought to myself, "I have absolutely nothing worthwhile and exciting going on to write about."

Nothing inspiring since a bunch of wacko women talked about their humanesque canines in the airport shuttle/train in Denver.

I've been busy with work...which has been a good thing and fun...so stuff has happened there, but I have a personal policy against really blogging about work unless it's something really not work-related, so there goes a lot of material. I did manage to spend 5 hours eating dinner at the
Town Hall Brewery with a couple of friends, enjoying the plethora of great seasonal beers they have out now. Wow - they are great. Highly recommend it. But that's about all of the excitement that I have had in my life in nearly two weeks.

Except something new came up while I was typing this...the possibility of going to Green Bay for a football game in December...how freaking cool would that be??? I hope that works out!!

I am resorting to a tired cop-out...one of those endless "questionaires." I don't think anyone will really learn anything about me from it, but it takes up space on the blog - so here you go!
