So what to post and when to post it?
I hate that life interferes with my blogging and I don't want to give it up. I will give you that my political blog has been pushed aside (it has been more than a month since it was updated). In just this past week, my wife has gone back to work, my mother-in-law is living with us part-time to help out with child care of our newborn son, we had said son's baptism with a party/luncheon here, and then a guest in from out of town for a few days.
And of course, tonight the hockey playoffs started (with the Rangers sending the Devils down to defeat, 4-1) and then its also Masters weekend (if you have to ask, you don't get it).
I need a vacation from my non-work life. But I'm afraid my leave balance is just as bad in that column as it is at work.
So, I'll muddle through, but I might not be here as much. But I'll keep an eye on all of you. Here's a oldie but a goodie blog post (from one year ago today) to remind you of a "space" related anniversary. In other historical news for today, from which I will not draw any parallels to surrender, obstruction, or marching toward one's own end:
- On this day in 1865, Robert E. Lee surrendered at Appomattox, Virginia. The Confederate general surrendered his 28,000 troops to Union General Ulysses S. Grant, effectively ending the American Civil War.
- On this day in 1939, singer Marian Anderson performed at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC, after she was denied the use of Constitution Hall by the Daughters of the American Revolution.
- On this day in 1942, American and Philippine defenders on Bataan capitulated to Japanese forces during World War II; the surrender was followed by the notorious Bataan Death March, which claimed nearly 10,000 lives.

48 posts in the hopper?! Wow.
Remember, it is ok to take a break. Some of the best bloggers have been known to do it (sometimes more successfully than others). We will miss your posts, but you've got a lot on your plate, so take it easy. And for God's sake, stop hiding your wife's slippers!
Yeesh, you sound kind of worn out.
Real life always trumps writing about it, though. Apparently I have no real life, which is why I can spend copious amounts of time creating blog posts about odds and ends of stuff I find online.
See, that's the thing: You're all about being, like, factual and whatnot, providing real content about, uh, stuff, which is way harder than just making up a few paragraphs about how funny this thing you found online is. I tend to take that path of least resistance.
Except for right now, when I am taking the path out the door, because it's almost 4:30. Cue that whole quittin' time sequence from the opening of The Flintstones ....
Of course, I can't help myself. Another blogger who I greatly respect also told me to not leave commentators hanging, always try to respond to them. So now I spend time not blogging but responding to comments on blog posts that talk about why I'm not going to blog anymore.
Stop the MADNESS. But I won't stop the blogging. I just need to re-prioritize.
